Hi djwak59 I bought the fpv explorer and became addicted to the speed and agility. Not used to the googles yet. I looked intothe avanta 2. sounds good .However reviews of both stated that for speed and agility the FPV was the way to go. I am looking to see if any other FPV, fast and...

hello fellow pilots I am really enjoying the FPV explorer. This aircraft is fast and nimble. really fun to fly. was wondering if DJI or another reliable makers has models that are similar to this drone? one caveat: I prefer Ready To Fly combo kits. I am not a builder,not even close

one more reason to ignore the latest dji( and other drone company) update notifications. who knows what is in them .

the problem has been --taking my eyes off the drone for just a second while it is moving and it gets lost --Up about 100 feet (over tree top level) and the winds were blowing hard enough that the Mini 2 se actually drifted off course. The area was not familiar to me so the camera...

being a newer pilot that is of retirement age, I find(in certain conditions) that my DJI mini 2 se is hard to see. Just wondering what older pilots have done to increase the contrast of a gray dji drone against a white( cloudy) sky? I am looking for solutions thta do NOT add...

so far the hack site s will not touch the newer firmware . The only way Dji allows flight in restricted zones is if the FAA gives written approval.You can then submit that written approval to DJI to get the drone unlocked to fly in the specified restricted airspace the dji drones are...

I stand corrected. I go to the b4u fly app to view the 4 sites that offer info about fly zones--types, limit s on altitude.....

I have found a mixed bag amongst their member fields

I suggest that you take the TRUST test while learning about which drones fit your needs than explore the B4UFLY app to investigate the restricted air spaces in your area then use and investigate the FAADRONE ZONE I also think it is a good idea to join the Academy of Miniature...

thanks

update -- we have a close friend who knew of a closed (old) airport about 30 miles from here. a wide open area . open field .plenty of room and NO GEO FENCING. the min 2 se flew well even in a light breeze. was alot of fun and very safe . :)

thanks

thank you very much

of course I was aware of the restricted zones . I also knew that my club is a FRIA area I di d not know that DJI felt the need to control where and how I fly.I will keep after the FAA to allow my flights in this area and I am looking for areas to fly in open space as well...

thanks. I am working on it
