    "Curbs Needed on Police Drone Surveillance of Public Gatherings" document by ACLU (March 14, 2024)

    welcome to China, there's a camera every 15yrds, literally everywhere.

    DJI Avata

    I'm assuming the Avata will geo-lock you out from flying in the DJI warning/restricted areas (in the USA) like all the other DJI drones, anyone know? If so that will probably be a big reason NOT to get an Avata.

    M2P standard RC USB loose connection

    I tried messing with the USB port prongs and still no luck. After calling around Im hearing its a normal wear and tear issue (i fly a lot). Replacing the large USB connection which is soldered to the main RC board is labor intensive and might as well just buy a used or new RC. So.... ISO a...

    M2P standard RC USB loose connection

    Anyone know of a good place to get my standard RC worked on? I’m in the DFW TX area. I normally use it with an iPad but the usb connection is shorting out and needs pressure on it to stay connected. Funny fix is to stick a JUUL pod in the gap and it keeps pressure on the connection and works...

    Smart Controller Screen Brightness - Low Light

    Just got the smart controller for the HDMI out to stream live when needed like I can with the P4P HDMI out. Have been using the regular RC(s) with ipad with P4P and M2P, I shoot a lot of low light. Did some practice and agree with you 150%, seems like in low light the actual images DNG or JPG...

    Live feed output to multiple sources

    Thanks. I have been thinking about getting an Autel II because it wont lock you out or Geofence, so thats a great feature for a professional 107 RPIC so I dont have to keep requesting unlocks from DJI.

    Live feed output to multiple sources

    Thanks, I have a P4P and a M2P so I don't think the remotes are compatible? Different video transmission technologies Lightbridge vs OcuSync. So I'd have to get an additional RC for whichever one. There is an Autel system for $450/500 (Autel Robotics Live Deck). Cost is a consideration BUT...

    Live feed output to multiple sources

    Thanks thats what my original thought was to do a live feed, I'm just not sure how the cell service is in the area I'll be shooting. So if the cell service isnt 3G or 4G then it will probably be too glitchy and slow. Thats why I was looking for alternatives. Autel Live Deck is the only other...

    Using iPad as second image preview

    Not to hijack the thread with another question, but first to answer your question, I love the iPad with the regular RC and do a lot or still/video professionally with several DJI drones M2P included, you wont regret it. Just don't let the iPad overheat or sit with the screen in direct sunlight...

    Live feed output to multiple sources

    Has anyone sent their live feed to multiple devices for surveillance? Ex. My mavic 2 pro (or P4P) is at location "X" and a command center is a mile away at location "Y". Can I (on demand/when requested) send my live feed to a source at the command center and still control the drone from...

    New FAA hobby regs (17th of May 2019) and DJI firmware update (or lack thereof)

    Sorry about the crash and hassel, I pretty much have to get an unlock every flight but I have like 50+ waivers for my area (DFW + most of TX). As stated before, if youre in a NFZ the drone simply wont take off. However, if your in atti mode before a good GPS lock and then it locates itself in a...
