    Military aircraft got ADB-S or not?

    There is radar that would detect and warn you of approaching military jets. However usually it comes with surface to air missiles attached and the Military would see the radar signal as a hostile act... flying a drone would be the least of your worries :-)

    DaVinci Resolve or lightroom

    FCP Studio was dropped for licensing and legal reasons to do with libraries used internally. Hence FCPX being new from the ground up. Hollywood has been dying on it's feet for the last few years. (it has not been the global film centre for a few years,. The COVID shutdown has simply...

    DaVinci Resolve or lightroom

    It's seeing posts like this I know why I stick with a permanent license for CS6 and LR 6.14 I paid for in a single payment many years ago and a couple of upgrade costs but nothing for many years! BTW a good Photoshop replacement is this Affinity Photo – Professional Image Editing...

    DaVinci Resolve or lightroom

    I do a lot of Video editing (mainly ground based news and documentary work) . Rexolve is NOT a good choice to start with. yes it is free but it is very buggy, has no tool tips and a 3,500 page PDF manual that is so opaque you will need the other dozen how to PDF's (each of multiple 100 pages)...

    Full HD vs 4K

    Accordiing to Sony R&D ( wil have t dig out the technical paper) on small screens IE less than 70 inches 4K isn't going to make any difference. (and that is without up-scaling) With up scaling on modern TV's it won't make any difference at all in domestic environments. 99.999% of Drone...

    DJI Drone crashed into my vehicle at car show

    Shirley the pilot has the liability. How they cover that liability is up to them. If their household insurance does not cover it that is not your problem but the pilot's? They will have to pay for the repair one way or another. In the state concerned is 19 an adult? IE technically he is...

    Important Article Re: DJI Aircraft

    Well that would make sense when you think that there are far more Americans on here complaining about the over zealous restrictions of the DJI No Fly Zones and Geo-fencing. I thing that when the POTUS visits somewhere there is a NFZ of about 5-10 miles and along any rout etc. These are...

    Thanks EU

    Or a car, or a motorbike, or a pilot's license or ships masters license or a..... Due to a few people doing silly and down right stupid things with drones all that is happening is they are harmonizing small drone laws wil all other powered craft on land, sea or air.

    No you are being treated the same as anyone else who fly's or drives something in Europe.:License and a test. BTW I didn't have to take any exams to own firearms just get a license.

    Use of Drones to record civil unrest.

    A link to a fascinating map which shows why you don't want to be reporting on civil unrest it it is not your profession. Come to that it is not a good idea even it it is your job. Note that whilst this is verified problems with the police there are a lot of similar problems with protesters...

    Military aircraft got ADB-S or not?

    It depends where you are.... RAF at 250 feet 400+ knots in lumpy terrain. To be fair although this is inhabited country side it is a designated RAF lo fly zone and going over some of the passes is less than 200 foot clearance. View from the ground It's not just fast jets.

    Use of Drones to record civil unrest.

    You could call/voicemail/email the Serriff that your reading of the laws says seems to indicate that it is OK for you to fly and video. Could he get back to you if it is not? So if you don't hear back it is OK. It is a weak argument but has been used before to mitigate.. As you know the...

    Use of Drones to record civil unrest.

    That is not the subject of this thread which is "Use of Drones to record civil unrest" in general and not specifically for any particular country. It is not for "other news" in any particular country I can direct you to journalists forums if you would like to discuss it there?
