    Registration?

    It appears that there is a late June 17 Senate and House bill to address the Taylor decision and now mandate the registration requirements that the FAA could not before. These were introduced last week and will have to be heard, voted and then go to reconciliation. If it passes, then yes, it...

    Part 107 test passed

    that is not at all what they stated on the FAA site. They stated and I quote in quotation marks: " We are carefully reviewing the U.S. Court of Appeals decision (PDF) as it relates to drone registrations. We are in the process of considering our response to the decision as well as any...

    Registration?

    Continuation of Mavic charging projects - portable charging - 4A vs 8A charge profiles

    So the 8amp portable did the job in 49 minutes and the 4amp wall was over an hour and seven minutes ( can't access rest of chart to right??). What's interesting is the plateau on the 4a wall charger as well. I was thinking how Tesla charge rates rapidly decline at about 80% charge to prevent...
