    Ipad mini 5 versus 6

    Thanks for all the quality replies. I really appreciate it. I decided to go with the mini 5 and save $100. It will certainly work for my particular needs. Thanks again! Bruce

    Ipad mini 5 versus 6

    I have the Mini 2 and love it. The only issue I have is that the screen on my iphone xr is too small for my 71 year old eyes. I was waiting for the ipad mini 6 to come out. Today I see the ipad mini 5 available for $299 ($100 off). My question is, is it worth it to wait for the ipad mini 6? I...

    United States National Cemeteries Rules

    As a Viet Era veteran and a Service Officer in the American Legion, I would not want a drone overhead while I was visiting a grave site. I would find that unacceptable. If a drone was overhead during a celebration such as placing remembrance wreaths during a Wreaths Across America event, I...

    What to turn on first?

    In colder weather, wouldn’t it be a good idea to turn on the drone first to allow the battery to warm up a bit?

    Changed My Mind

    After a lot of research and what I thought was careful consideration, I purchased the Mini 1 FMC from Amazon on Prime Day for $399. It was my first drone and I was impressed with the technology and capabilities of the Mini 1. Unfortunately, after watching way too many Mini 2 YouTube videos, I...

    Warranty Registration Question

    Good Morning, I purchased a dji drone from Amazon and I don't intend to buy the dji insurance. Do I need to register the drone with them to activate the warranty or is that taken care of when I activate the drone through DJI Fly? Thanks, Bruce

    so many sad posts lately

    I thank this forum for me not getting into trouble. Plus the fact that I had to wait over a week for my Mini to arrive. The wait allowed me to go through this forum and countless YouTube videos. By the time it arrived I felt that I could fly it with no problems. I have a huge 200+ acre open...

    Decisions... Decisions

    Well, I finally decided to keep the Mini. My rationale is that it was extremely inexpensive and as a first-timer it will be a great platform for me learn what droning is all about. If I end up not liking it (unlikely), I will not have spent a lot. If I do like it (more likely), I can either...

    Decisions... Decisions

    Well, I bit the bullet and purchased the Mini. There was the $100 instant savings, and an additional $100 for signing on to get the Amazon credit card. For only $299 for the Mini Fly More combo, I couldn't resist. If I regret buying it I can always sell it for $299 (I think). If I want to...

    Thanks. You are right. I have been through that with phones, TV’s, etc. LOL. You would think at 70 I would have learned by now.
