Hello Buddy 2. I see you're from PA. So am I. Southwest part of the state. Have had my Mavic Pro for about 2 years. You can do so much with it...

Briefly, I have been out of droning professionally for almost a year. I got my 107 2 years ago (it just expired) and I've got to study for the re-certification. I completed 38 paid missions for DroneBase then all of a sudden they stopped. To this day I don't know if they became upset with me or...

I have flown from the large parking lot at the base of the Mon Incline. If I remember correctly it's $5.00 to park but to me well worth it. I walked up to the fence which parallels the RR tracks, which parallel the river. Right at the Point. That way you are not flying over people. I have...

Thank you very much for this... I'm purposely not looking at the new Mavics (til I can afford one) and am quite happy with my MP and Inspire 1 because I'm thinking 'how much better could they be?' Then you have to go and show me this... Thanks...

I hope this isn't considered hijacking this thread because it's of the same topic and you guys seem to know what you're talking about. My question is about GPS Stacking. When I started doing missions for DroneBase they said I couldn't use my iPad (it's the non-cellular $339 model) because it...

Started goin' blind huh?

My 2¢ This has nothing to do with the heating issue that TD informed you about. For the message about 'motor overloaded' I got a similar message about the motor when I tried taking off in grass that was just high enough to touch the blades. I'm guessing here but it seems to me that the system...

Thanks for all this great advice. I wish I had known it before I listed the generator on eBay. The bidding has died down. It's not listed as a bid but as a "Buy it Now" price with "Make Offer" as an option. I set it up to be "Local Pickup Only" to eliminate the fact that I didn't have a clue...

Ok that makes sense. I couldn't figure out how some companies are offering free shipping on this item and it's gonna cost me $300~$400. And there's really no room for them to bury the shipping cost in the selling price. It's like you say, those guys ship a lot of packages.

I would be glad to send that. I just need to figure out where it is. I have been wanting to learn this skill.

It's not drone related but I have to find the best way of shipping a 131 lb. generator/inverter from PA to NJ. I went to UPS site and filled in the blanks and it came to like $400. Surely there is a cheaper way. I think. Some of the same generator is advertised brand new on eBay with free...

Thank you! I actually envisioned both 1 and 2. So I think I will use some very thin stiff wire for the line so it stays put and I will build into the line some kind of breakaway should I get stuck so I can release. Therefore eliminating a need for another post here "Has anyone ever tried to...
