    Philadelphia Pilot Intros

    Thanks! I notice you fly an Inspire 2.0. I actually recently picked up an Inspire 1 version 2 and am trying to figure out which pad to get for it. Or is CrystalSky worth it? Not sure if you or anyone else has experience with CS monitor. Since the Inspire 1 is an older bird in the scheme of...

    New pilot check in from SE Pennsylvania

    Would be very cool! Lancaster would be a nice place. I was looking at the regulations for drone pilots in our state and I'm quite irritated. https://www.dcnr.pa.gov/StateParks/RulesAndRegulations/UnmannedAerialSystemsandDrones/Pages/default.aspx Who does that? There's nothing of interest to...
