Thanks guys, I do appreciate all the info. The disgruntled employee scenario is like an OSHA violation. If they want to find a problem, they will. Better to make sure that is not even possible.

Ya, I probably will. I have a photographer friend who may want some drone shots as part of shoots too, so there might be that too

Fair point So should I delete this thread now? Lol

I have a normal Mavic Pro and just switched to the low noise props. I didn’t have any issues on the first couple flights. I’m going to watch this thread though, just in case.

This is super good advise. I learned flying a racing drone line of site only, no FPV. Coming from that, flying the Mavic is so easy its not even funny

How would you or anybody else be able to tell or even suspect from the pics or videos that they were taken by somebody who doesn't have an FAA drone certification? Technically I am sure that you are correct, real world possibilities though, there are tons of websites for businesses that have...

I had the same thoughts. It's not likely that anybody is going to be seeking out who the drone operator was when they see the video, so I don't know how you would really get in any trouble for it. If I can get the company to pay though, there is really no downside that I can see, so I'll...

Hypothetical situation. There are a couple of times a year at my work that we have outdoor type shows on our property. If I bring the drone in and take some pics or videos, then give them to our marketing department to use for whatever, what certification does that require? I wouldn't be...

Ahh?? Neither? I think just single photo and manually adjusting iso and shutter for the light? I’m honestly not positive. No multiple bursts though. Just good light I think.

Hey guys, just a couple pics from the second night with the Mavic Pro. Having fun.

Thanks guys, I’ll post a couple of the first pics in the pic thread!

Hey there everyone. I just got a Mavic Pro off Craigslist and am looking forward to getting some pics / vids. This is not my first quad, but it is the first one of this type that I have used. I come to the Mavic in a roundabout way, having started in quads with a couple small cheap ones and...
