    Flying Near Immigrant Detention Center

    You need to CAREFULLY examine the Laws in the area and the FAA Regulations for flying near a place designated as "Critical Infrastructure" I would also look to make VERY SURE that no TFR's are put in place!! You can almost guarantee there are NOTAMS and restrictions in place. I wouldnt do it...

    I have M2P and M2Z with very old firmware - RID module or activate latest?

    If you are just the normal Drone pilot I would update the firmware You can get a module I suppose BUT If you are not using any "Hacks" then why spend the money, Just upgrade.

    Your Drone could very well have internal damage that you cannot see. However the parts are fairly cheap and it is possible that you may just be able to repair it. First you will need the correct soldering iron do not touch a hardware store iron to your Drone....You need a TS-100 to do...

    New to hobby, broken drone and need some pointers 🤞

    First, Is this Your first Drone repair? Can you solder? Are you willing to learn? You will need a few tools.... Are you willing to buy those for this one repair? If the legs are not broken in anyway, You just need the Shaft arm brackets BUT if there is any damage to the Arms.....Replace them..

    You have a bit of damage to take care of there. You may need to replace the gimbal. Are you SURE the cables are seated properly? Was there silicone holding the connectors? if so you have to replace it and let it dry before you re-assemble the Drone. The error indicates that the Drone cannot...
