I owned and operated a commercial photography studio here in Houston for 35 years. I had to retire a bit early to help take care of my parents who were in frail health. After they passed it was just easier to be the home husband as my wife has a good job. We travel a lot, her travel is paid for...
I live in Texas and under Texas law you can not launch operate or land a drone while physically within the state park unless the state park superintendant allows it of there is a designated area within the state park. So you might be able to fly if you submitted a request and they approved it or...
I got one of these after they first came out as I am more of an Android user than Apple. Some people claim it works great with DJI drones and I have used it with my Phantom 3 Adv. with moderate success but have not had as good a luck with my Mavic Air.
It seems to really lag and I constantly...
I've been up in the building with the enclosed crosswalk, I think it's the Shanghai World Financial Center and tops out around 500 meters. Did he land on the roof and then take off again? Looked like it. Anyway that was a ballsy flight.
I ended up flying a bit over my son's house and pool later on today and had no problems. Maybe it was just the area I flew before combined with the hot sun and summer heat.

I then switched my LG phone...
So let's say I spend an hour or so flying and come home with discharged batteries. Should I store them that way if I will not fly for a bit or charge them up some or all the way?
Do I need to do anything else? I have had a Phantom 3 ADV. for 2 years that I registered when I got it and have the number on the drone and the ID card in my wallet. I now have the Mavic Air. Am I correct to assume that all I have to do is put that same number on my new drone or is there...
I got my Air about 10 days ago. First thing was to watch some Youtube videos on getting it up and running and the variety of settings. I upgraded the firmware for both the controller and the bird. Then we got several days of rain so I had to wait to fly.
Finally took it to a spot near my home...
Ordered a Mavic Air yesterday. I already own a Phantom 3 Advanced and enjoy it although I am an occasional pilot and not an every day one. I wanted the Air for travel, I debated on this or the Mavic Pro and decided this fit my needs more. I was willing to sacrifice some of the features on the...
