    Got arrested in Europe with a fine of 470 euros.

    Posse Comitatus only serves to prevent the military being used to enforce domestic law. Base security is a different matter - if the violator were a civilian they would be turned over to the local authorities - which is what happened to OP. I've literally witnessed a MARTA (Atlanta rapid...

    I assure you that the military can and will arrest people at gunpoint. They're called MP's. And if you were to spin up your drone on a US military base, they'd likely be doing the same thing to you that the Dutch military did to OP. And if you were a foreign tourist? You probably wouldn't get...

    Stratus 2 - The Power of Atmosphere

    Nice! How long (in real time) would you say most of those time-lapses are ?

    Not very artistic, but I unexpectedly captured pouring of a hot slag in the ironworks.

    I'd be hesitant to get closer. Heat rises - the temperature coming off that pile could be intense. You could cook your drone without even knowing it was feeling the heat. Cool vid though - did the camera change it's exposure settings automatically as it was sitting there or did you adjust that...

    New Mavic Air 2?

    Same reason I won't buy a Mustang Mach-E.

    New Mavic Air 2?

    Still seems like a bunch of speculation.

    Buy Mavic Air or wait for Mavic Air 2

    Why not just fly and enjoy the one you have?

    Police showed up my house within 15 minutes of flight today

    LEO's run your tag number to identify you and search for any reports related to your vehicle all the time. ALL THE TIME.

    There's also no point in having these discussions if your only goal is to present "gotcha" questions and then deliberately misrepresent the answers.

    Police showed up my house within 15 minutes of flight today

    If there were no such thing as roads and vehicles drove on empty planes with no signals or patterns to guide traffic and we prevented accidents by monitoring from regional control towers that had to actively track the position of every car traveling in the area? Sure. I'm not trying to be...

    Police showed up my house within 15 minutes of flight today

    See, there's this thing called a "license plate" on my car that identifies who I am to every cop and traffic camera out there... along with radar detectors, traffic cameras, etc that are constantly monitoring everything I do, as accountability.... So I'm not sure what your point is here. You...

    LOL, you don't really think that, do you?

    New Mavic Air 2?

    Agreed - looks way too big to be an Air 2. At that size I would just buy a Pro. These pics are sketchy AF, too. Looks ike someone ran off with the drone and took the pics in a broom closet or something. Could just be a prototype. I chose the Air because it was a good compromise between the...
