My business is 107 certified and I could not operate without it. I do quite a few jobs a year inside the Washington DC Flight Restriction Zone and I could not get a waiver to do a job without Part 107. The FRZ is a 30 mile diameter circle extending out from DCA and covers all of Washington...

I'm not looking to fly in a TFR. The TFR only exists on May 25 from 11:15am to 3:00pm. I attempted to fly on May 23 which the Mavic wouldn't do in a place I know I can fly and I need to fly on May 26.

Hello Everyone, I ran into an unusual situation today where my drone wouldn't fly because it thinks it's in a No Fly Zone. Technically, it's not. I'm in the Washington, DC area which is one of the most restrictive flight regions for drones in the USA for obvious reasons. The No Fly Zone...

I travel a lot. Sometimes I am, sometimes not. Today I am.... Ithaca class E2. Kitty Hawk says authorization is required but there is no option to request it. Air Map says there are no restrictions

I have several Android devices I can use. The one I tested on today, a Galaxy S9+ has Android version 9. I have a Note 4 that I use as my FPV screen and a Galaxy tab S2. The Note 4 is version 6.0.1 and the Tab S2 is version 7 I want to use my Note 4 as my FPV screen and the S9+ for...

I am a 107 pilot and I don't have a LAANC Authorization option anywhere in my Kittyhawk app. I have several android phones and they are all the same

I applied on ICARA this morning. When I took my test they told me the certificate would be mailed to me in 4 to 6 weeks. They didn't say anything about having to apply online for it. Thanks.

Hello, I passed the 107 knowledge test in early August and still have no received anything except the piece of paper that says I passed. How long does it take to get the certificate from the FAA?

That's because I spelled it wrong. I put it on YouTube. The link works there

Here is my video of the problem I am having with the Freewell ND filers. The first clip is with the original Hasselblad lens. The second clip is with the Freewell ND filter attached:

I have a set of the Freewell filters and I am having problems with the gimbal getting stuck at initialization. I have to gently hold the bottom of the camera when the Mavic is turned on to ensure it ends up looking straight ahead. I have also had significant problems with vignetting and too...

You can crop your photos to improve the composition. In photo 6 I would have cropped the top and the bottom slightly to remove the half cars. Your photo 6 is a good picture, it just needed a little help after the camera. Post production is an integral part of photography. I use Power...

I just look for interesting patterns and terrains. One of my most interesting photos is attached. It's a shopping center parking lot from 400 feet above. I was actually getting ready to land and still had the video on. When I reviewed the footage I snipped out this photo. I have no idea...

You can't fly your drone here. Why not? - It's not allowed - We have a policy against it - There is an ordinance against it - You can put someone's eye out with that thing (thanks to my mom for this one. It covers a lot of items) - It could drop out of the sky and hurt someone (emergency rooms...

I've tried a few spherical panoramas on my M2P and they have come out ok. Some of the one I have seen from here will turn completely upside down. Other I have seen won't do that. Mine won't. I let the M2P do the stitching. what is the difference between the ones that turn upside down and...
