    Carisbrooke Castle - One of the 10 Best Castles in England

    Thanks for that I will contact CAA. It will probably be a good idea to keep a copy of their reply with you while flying just incase there is any confrontation.

    Excellent video. I would like to film some English Heritage sites but they have severe restrictions and requirements. Drone filming Was it straightforward to get permission?

    How do YOU physically store your drone batteries for long periods?

    HI, this thread is a bit scary as I have happily been recharging batteries at home often when absent with no problems. I am now inclined only to charge while I am present. This poses the question - is it safe/ok to stop and start charging the same battery until fully charged?

    Video Programs for editing!

    Firmware update

    Got her Skinned!!

    Can't think why you would want to do it. You can't see the detail in the air and at other times it is presumably stored away. I would also share the concern that it may affect any dji warrantee.

    Controller and Ipad combination

    It fits ok. In fact I leave it connected anc carry it around in my back pac. There is a YouTube video showing how it’s done. Google iPad with Mavic 2

    Controller and Ipad combination

    Why not just connect directly to the RC in place of an iPhone. Works fine for me.

    Suffolk farm drone in near-miss with Tornado jet

    We set our max height at 400ft above take off. How do military aircraft define their height - not above take off I imagine. Probably above sea level plus they will know height above current ground. So how do we reconcile these measurements. If we take off at the top of a hill we could easily...
