I just want to congratulate you for raising this common concern that many share but might avoid raising to peers ... AND the many who responded to you with helpful support. People do have anxiety, fears and phobias. I'm into that. But the tips here will help ... Practice, face it, and be safe.

Interesting George. Good report. If its a no-go at CBS, maybe some freelance work, workshops, travel, etc. Anyway, my only suggestions might be: 1) slower circles — maybe not even full circles just to get establishing views; and 2) facials are blown out, but I get all that for a quick...

First I’m no drone expert, altho had a video business. Not sure of the purpose for this ... just assume personal amusement. Lotsa personal choice here. But I like it. For my purposes, I’d would: 1) consider regrading the color, seems a tinge yellow/green on the trees to me; 2) a little too...

Try using STABILIZE in the Topaz Sharpen app. Works fine while holding down noise.

I'm wondering about sizeable TV towers, probably more radiation? More conflict? I may get as close as 500 yards, but so far no problem with MP. Years ago a Phantom went down there. See pic ... flown from street loop. Seldom go beyond.

OK, nobody has said this, yet ... so I have to speak to the issue of National Parks in the US. I’m a Mavic owner, and photographer. I get it. Love to fly. But common sense and the love of the outdoors would suggest that noise makers and flying objects substantially reduce the experience of...

Fun stuff .... but I'm surprised nobody has cautioned here that its illegal to fly at night in hobby class in the US.

How scared should WE be? They should be scared. Even a small tree swallow will attack a drone ... Why? Protecting their young, and their territory. You're in their crib. Give em space. Like any animal ... avoid creating stress, theirs and yours. Move it or lose it. And best, study your...

Why not just confront the neighbor with the facts?

Well documented Mikko -- kiitos.

I agree with all ... well done science project (spoken as a former science fair winner myself). I hope he got a blue ribbon for this one ... But in any case he obviously contributed USEFUL information to others .... I've read about low & slow, but I think this data point approach is far more...

I have 4.07 and no nags to change or update firmware. Wonder why? All seems to be flying fine on short trips.

Hi ... first time here, and hoping to see plenty of local activity. As an 'older' pilot, I graduated from a P3P and Chrome prior to that. Short hops around MSP and north. Headed for Washington and Montana soon.My primary concern deals with the preponderance of sea-plane bases in the area...
