Hello.... Just wanted to make sure you received my PM with the pics?

REALLY?? Awesome!! I'll send some pics via PM. PM me on what you may be interested in.

Hello all, Just curious to everyone's thoughts on this..... I have 3 drones I'm considering selling. - DJI Spark Fly more combo- purchased Nov. '17 - one hard landing, flat on sandy surface due to trying to hand catch and stupidly allowing my thumb to get in the way..... OUCH!! Looks new and...

That is WAAAYY COOL!!!!! GREAT SHOT

That is true... you have to be careful about that. However, I believe the pictures were taken after hours so he should be okay.... SHOULD. With that said, I would definitely contact the library and make the offer. Good deeds are too few and far between these days.

Thanks all. I'd love to buy Photoshop actually, but it's just too pricey. I'm sticking with Lightroom and will just have a new learning curve. I guess I've got a lot of reading and tutorial videos coming my way. I haven't tried any raw files yet. Glad to hear it handles them without any issue.

Hello all, In a past life, I used Photoshop for post processing. I shot weddings, senior pictures, family outings, etc. I did Okay if I do say so myself. Now.... quite a few years later, I'm learning the ins and outs of drone photography, strictly hobby and for fun. Phototshop is out of...

Thanks... Yes I had actually seen this before. But as I was so gently reminded on another forum, this is not the DJI approved list and if there are any issues with the "experience", it is because I'm using an unapproved device. (That's my summary of the conversation)

Thanks... I'm leaning towards the mini4 simply because it's much cheaper. Does it fit in the controller or do I need the tablet accessory to hold it?

Hello all, I'm new to the Mavic Pro.... I'm flying mostly at a local RC air field to get use to flying, controls, navigating by app vs. LOS (although it's always in VLOS). I've had a few disconnects from the app and from the RC itself using my Samsung Note 5. - Yes, I know it's not on the...

Hello.. I'm in Louisville, but my wife and I visit NC quite often and hope to back pack in Pisgah National Forest before the end of the year. Can you recommend any good trails, more specifically area in the Forest with good views/scenery for flying?

Yes.... RRG allows drones as long as it's in the National Forest area. Be careful you're not in a "Wilderness Area" as they are prohibited there. I've flown on Rock Bridge Trail. They've got some neat falls there (Creation Falls), and that is just on the border of the Wilderness area...

Thanks DCatalo... it does help. Also knowing there's a domestic place to send the drone also helps. I went with the Yuneec ONLY because of the service issue I was hearing about. I really wanted the Phantom 3 when oI was looking. Now backpacking more than usual, I really need the portability...

Thanks all... I appreciate the advice. Love the idea of an older iPhone dedicated to the drone. Having another source (Thunderdrones) for repairs also helps as well, the customer service scared me away from DJI previously, so that's very reassuring.

Hello all, I'm new to the forum. I don't have a Mavic Pro yet, but in the process or deciding to buy or not. I'm an avid backpacker, and the portability of the Mavic is quite appealing. However I must admit after reading all the reviews of problems with the updates and the poor DJI service...
