I fly a DJI Mini 3 Pro. I wonder what others suggest as a good rule of thumb for maintaining VLOS. I set my controller to a maximum distance of 1,000-feet. And that seems to work for me.

BWI is registered in AZ too. I searched for AirModo, nothing in the AZ listing showed up. Maybe they have a different name?

I would politely defend you are not a nuisance. You are licensed and abide by FAA regulations and safety practices of reputable CBO's. You do not fly over people, moving vehicles, and maintain a safe distance from the public. You should thank them for being concerned with nuisances and...

More than a few non-107 pilots are well aware of the requirement to obtain a TRUST Certificate, but refuse to do so.

Yep, he sometimes is kind of childish. Unfortunately, so am I.

I had to go organize my sock drawer.

Is there even such a thing (now) as a Category 1 drone? Prop guards on the DJI’s put them over 250g I believe.

I have a question regarding this. Except as explained in the above categories, am I able to ‘transit’ over people. If I want to move my drone from Point A and Point B, can I fly over people (not an assembly)?

I’d like to add a 2” x 2” x 1.25” charger to the case. Guess I could store batteries in the charger, and enlarge the 2 battery slots (in the case) to hold the charger?

The Fly More Kit big - MEH! Not great, not horrible (but closer to the horrible side).

Bravo! Nicely done.

The dreaded ‘red screen of death’.

Yeh, back of the battery might be a good spot. I would prefer to put it on the bottom of the drone, but the Mini 3 sits so low to the ground, I’m afraid I’d land on the light. Battery on the back would give me best visibility when flying away from me.

Does anyone have a recommendation for anti-collision lights that would mount in a way to improve visibility during daylight flights.
