    USA - Registration numbers to be required on exterior of aircraft soon (Feb. 23)

    What about Canada? Any of these "Commandments for saving planet Earth" apply to me? Do I have to number the moose I painted on the side of it.

    Mavic pro stuck 75 foot up in a tree!

    Should have hired the monkey - 1/2 dozen bananas would have been cheaper

    Below freezing Flying

    Wind chill has no effect on this. Wind chill is a measurement of the rate of heat loss from your body when you're exposed to low temperatures combined with wind. It has nothing to do with inanimate objects. It's 8'F here in northern Canada and the MPP is flying... no problems.

    Dji Mavic Pro on eBay for only $125

    I say "GO FOR IT".... buy the thing. If you don't like it, It might make a great gift for the kid next door. Lots of people spend the same amount (or more) on tobacco each week and watch the smoke just float away. Live a little... take the odd chance in life.

    Question about setting waypoints

    Hi Derek, tripod would work but, the situation is a bit more complicated as the 1000-yard range is basically a bulldozer trail into the bush which will prove trickier to fly without waypoints. I might explain I live 500 miles north of the nearest city here in Manitoba so, this is not a fancy...

    Question about setting waypoints

    I have a MPP and I want to fly it on a fairly regular basis to saved waypoints, 500 - 1000 yards down range at local gun range. BTW, this meets with club approval. For example, I would like to be able to somehow tell the MPP to fly to the waypoint down range at the 1000-yard marker, where I can...
