    Has it all been worth it?

    Ooooo...another rabbit hole, Lol !! I had a Kodak, several of the Lumix series and now Nikon. It's soooo easy to separate me from my money. 😁 But like you said...good times! Once I saw the increased capability of drone cameras, it occurred to me that I should capture local landmarks for...

    Part 107 Business Development questions

    Depends on what state you register in. Here in Louisiana it cost me a paltry $75 to register my LLC and $35/yr annual report. But, it's not a drone business.

    Has it all been worth it?

    I started like Rchawks, flying rc gliders in 1979. Mounted "Keychain" cameras first, then GoPros, even a full size dslr once (on a Multiplex Twinstar)! Those were certainly the good ole days. I have a second hand Air 2s that I bought for $400 and it's been great for capturing local landmarks...

    RIP Mavic 4 Pro

    I didn't mean bias with regards to the numbers. But for them to say neither side is willing to negotiate is definitely off the mark.

    RIP Mavic 4 Pro

    Everyone should just calm down. China needs the revenue more than the U.S. This is just leverage and when it's settled, things will be back to normal (or close). I'm not an economist but I do have a friend "in the know" and he said, despite what's reported by the media here in the U.S., there...

    Air 2s waypoints?

    Have you made any adjustments to the max yaw rate in the advanced settings for the mode you'reoperating in?

    how to avoid forced landing because of low battery

    Proper training in all full-scale aircraft includes forced landing scenarios. It also includes training in how to prevent such scenarios. Anyone who takes to the skies thinking they never need to deal with forced landings is a fool looking to become a statistic.

    Drones already a problem at the Super Bowl

    Wrong. Refer to FAR 91.119

    Arrested or fined multiple drone pilots in California fires

    I'd be willing to bet the outcome will be a obligatory fine and nothing more. I have yet to see anything to the contrary on previous infractions.
