    Data carriers compatible with the Tripltek tablet?

    Originally, I didn't like the idea of using a hotspot but, I found I have an unlimited plan so no issue, no brainer!!

    Data carriers compatible with the Tripltek tablet?

    I correct my stance on hotspot use. I agree, it may be a better method than a separate data plan.

    Data carriers compatible with the Tripltek tablet?

    So far, ATT, Verizon and Sprint will not allow my Tripltek tablet on their networks after checking the IMEI number. Is there anyone that has a data only plan they are using for this tablet and from what carrier. Thanks!

    FAA Section 349, Recreational Operations ~ The bits & pieces

    It does appear Hobbyists will eventually be able to use the LAANC system to gain approval. I have to believe access will coincide with the knowledge testing mandated for hobbyists.

    Smartcontroller: To buy or not to buy. That is the question.

    Dropped money on a CrystalSky monitor before the smart controller came out. I use it for my P4P and M2Z so no interest in it.

    First New look of FAA Memorandum 2019

    It seems the OPs memo show implementation on 5/16 and states ATC would no longer respond to sUAS "intent to fly" advisories. I am hoping the rest of the memo spells out how a hobbyist can fly in controlled airspace....

    First New look of FAA Memorandum 2019

    It does seem that flying at a fixed site is the only option for hobbyist in controlled airspace. I am anxiously awaiting the rest of the memo and hoping they are opening hobbyists up to LAANC or some other procedure.

    First New look of FAA Memorandum 2019

    Hoping to see the rest soon. So far, I see a hobbyist are no longer allowed to advise ATC that they are flying in controlled airspace from fixed locations. Curious if hobbyist will be allowed LAANC access to gain approval. This first part seems to only concern fixed locations...
