    After 8 days at 80 feet in the cold waters of Puget Sound

    C'mon, you can't drop info like that and not explain why.

    Helpful RID link from DJI

    Thank you for posting this. I read the link and some FAQs but I'm still not able to determine if my drone will be built-in RID compatible. As I have a DJI FPV (not the avata), I'm not sure if DJI considers that to be a "modern" drone or not. If anyone has info, that'd be appreciated.

    Hypothetical question: BVLOS, WiFi, and OcuSync

    Hypothetical question: BVLOS, WiFi, and OcuSync

    Since it's nearly impossible for people to legally fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS), does the OcuSync range provide any additional benefit over Wifi? The hypothetical, if there were two identical drones, but the cheaper option only had WiFi connection instead of OcuSync, would paying...

    Wind tolerance does not mean immunity - my first close call.

    Thanks for the video. Which drone is that, also what's the stuff you have attached to it?
