    Flying around Turbine Wind mills

    The 550 RTH is good to clear the windmill. But isn't the drone in violation as soon as it clears the windmill?

    DJI Smart Controller won't take a charge

    I had the same problem with one of my RC-Pro controllers for my M30T when it was a few months old. One day it worked fine - next flight it wouldn't charge. Contacted DJI support. The sent me a new (to me) one within 3 days and a label to send my defective one back. Stay Safe!

    Green and Red Strobe Plus one White Strobe on top

    I put landing gear attachment on my Air2 after the Air2 sustained damage to a front leg which won't support weight of aircraft anymore. I really haven't noticed any adverse affect on the Air2's performance.

    Landing Pad Night Lights

    Many locations I fly from are in the "wild", so to speak. Tall grass, rough surface of rocks and gravel, etc. I mounted my 4x4 pad on a small 2-wheeled utility trailer that I can tow behind my Kawasaki Mule or Ford pickup so I always have a good place from which to launch and recover. Side...

    This Teen was attacked by a woman 8 years ago for flying his drone near a beach. This is a federal crime. Will RID increase these confrontations?

    I have never had anyone bother me while I'm operating my drone. But I must admit when I'm flying my drone, my Glock 17 is prominently displayed on my right hip. And yes, Virginia, it is 100% legal for me to be carrying a firearm in any location where I fly.

    Why do my Litchi cached maps disappear?

    Neither my iPad Air 2 or Mavic Smart Controller lose the cache. Although my iPad requested to open google maps, which it did via the cellular service. But they are not "tablets" so maybe my experience is invalid.🤠

    Firmware Update alert every time I change the battery in my Air 2

    Sounds good to me. I'll add that to my list of things to do next.

    Firmware Update alert every time I change the battery in my Air 2

    So right on. I went through the rest of my battery inventory and on the second time around I did not get the update alert. Thanks for the input.

    Air 2 firmware 01.01.0700: SC firmware 01.01.0064: GoFly App version 1.5.4 Since updating the A2 firmware to 01.01.0700, every time I load a new battery, the Firmware Update "Update" alert appears when I connect to the aircraft. Checking if update is required reports firmware is up-to-date. If I...
