Ahh, got it. Yes, I missed the goal on that one. Thanks @dawgpilot for the helpful insight; I'll plan to play with Airmap more.

KITH. Yes, I tested and it does have LAANC enabled - I thought the whole idea of the DropZone Authorization was to get a blanket approval and not have to be submitting a flight plan every time I want to head out. I'm VERY new to Airmap process - did my first flight plan for KITH Class D...

@dawgpilot , thanks for your coaching here! I am going through the FAA Dropzone application for recreational flyer authorization, and when I get to the point where I type in closest airport (which is the airport I'm looking to get authorization to fly in it's Class D airspace), I get an error...

I noticed the Arris Raptors - didn't realize they weren't released yet. I was floored at how expensively priced they are over the MPP version. That was why on a separate chain I asked about what people's thoughts were on some of the eBay pontoons and balls out there.

Great discussions here about line length and purpose of Getterback. My local lake was glacier formed. Most places 60+ feet deep by the time you are less than half a dozen boat lengths from shore, and over 400 feet deep in the middle. Hard to find spots to anchor and float on much of the lake...

@Makofire1 , you are dealing with DJI software restrictions above and beyond FAA. Multiple threads are available for reference; here are a couple to start with that will hopefully answer all of your questions. It's a pain but relatively straightforward to acquire and install an Unlocking...

Not sure if this is getting off-topic, but what do the pros say about the RCGeek (4 battery) / Fstop Labs (3 battery) aftermarket chargers? Fstop has a lot more Amazon reviews. I'm concerned about going aftermarket for intricate batteries, but I don't understand the technology enough to know...

Welcome @MavProPlat1968 . I've only played with this a little bit, but I think you'll find that if you save them as an offline map, they will stay for you.

@bob1393 , are you attempting to charge through the correct port (micro USB on upper left side of controller as noted in user manual and quick start guide)? Here is a snippet from quick start that should guide you. Hope this helps:

Wow that had to be intimidating. Glad you're alright, and hope everyone around is too.

Don't forget, as mentioned above - this will not work for anyone using iPhone or iPad until that app is updated first, then anyone using Android will be able to use it once DJI gets to the Android version, and finally - months later after multiple discussions about how insane it is that DJI does...

Any Authorized DJI dealer/ reseller would provide OEM product. There are sellers on this forum, on Amazon, and DJI's website has a list as well: DJI - The World Leader in Camera Drones/Quadcopters for Aerial Photography

@hegauer , posts above are not incorrect. Cable from photo is USB-C to USB as you mention, but included in the box of parts/ cables that came with the aircraft is an adapter from USB C to micro USB. It CAN be used to charge the controller with the adapter installed. As @sclelectronics in post...

I am using @Thomas B 's lighting/ mount strategy on my M2P as well. Glad to hear it should clear Polar Pro landing gear - I haven't taken the plunge yet on the PP gear but was my only potential concern about ordering the Aerial Pixel front leg mounts.

@SpitFire , would you please confirm: I search apple store and the only thing close is called 'Drone Pre Flight Checklist'. Logo is a white square with blue border, Pre and a big checkmark all in blue. Is that the one you like? If so, maybe it's iPad only or something. App has one review -...
