I would love this. Ewa Beach, Hawaii. 96706

Beautiful picture. Thank you so much for your respect of nature and not startling this beautiful bird. Pilots like yourself make us all look good with your thoughtfulness and sense of responsibility.

Welcome. I am a resident of Oahu and fly a Mavic Pro here. I would love to meet and chat with you and compare notes. I really enjoy flying here although you get a lot of high wind warnings as you might expect with the strong trade winds. AirMap is very useful here as there are lots of restricted...

Hey Floyd. I feel your pain. I continue to suffer with the same anxiety you are experiencing after about three years of flying.

It is tough calling it soda here in Hawaii. Lol

Where from in the cities? I live on Oahu during winter months but in Woodbury and Bayfield Wisconsin during the summer.

Billie Kyle does a nice job as well

I have been flying my Mavic Pro now for several months with no issues. This past Thursday, I updated to new firmware, checked IMU calibration and calibrated compass. I used the DJI launch sequence and checked the box to allow Mavic to rise 20 feet and establish good picture of RTH. It ascended...
