I own 2 RC Pros. Added a drone and I do not need this as a backup. Tired of messing with you phone hookups? I bought a new drone and do not need a 4th controller. Brand new. Sealed in plastic. $309 if bought separately. Asking $225. Free shipping in the United States. DJI RC_ is a remote...

Barely flown. Near mint. No crashed or hard landings. It has been flown 13.4km and been in the air for 1.35 hours. It was a backup. You can get a great DJI Mavic 3 Pro with the 4/3 sensor and the 7x zoom for less than a Classic or a Mini 4 Pro which I just bought. It comes with 4 ND 4/8/16/32)...

I have been to Compton. Nice little city. I have pictures somewhere. While taking pics, I had a guy tell me in front of the sign that my friends in Utah still wouldn't believe me.

I totally knew it.

I've flown inside small spaces like ice arenas and homes. How large is it? I would do it with me inside if it's clean of fumes like you indicated.

A lot of refurbished items are returns.

Nope. From experience...

I have the D850, but it is for the dynamic range and ISO performance at night. I didn't care for the D800 for the reasons that you just stated. But, the 850 works for me... with really good glass.

It's not close to being superior in every way. Read my post.

As a photographer, absolutely not. Megapixels are good but overrated. Some of my best images came from a 12MP Nikon D700. Massive pixels. It was a light sponge. Boise was amazing. The larger sensor size is really a big deal. Dynamic range and flexibility are in to a photographer. Being stuck at...

I do all my photography and in-camera adjustments manually. So, I use thumbs only. I have never had an issue and I think the comfort and control comes from decades of video games. Photographing rock art high on cliff faces means extremely precise flying. I don't even use tripod mode anymore...

My Mavic 2 is named Emma after Emma Watson and my Phantom 4 Pro V2 is named Thunderbird 1.

Tripod Mode was surely the culprit with those darn drafts in stopping the recovery.

A helicopter pilot once told me about the vortex ring state. It is interesting. I also encountered issues near a waterfall. More power is not the answer. Moving in any direction seems to be the solution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_ring_state
