    Good places to fly near Harrisburg, PA

    I'm not local to this area either. (New Yorker). I work in Maryland but have spent quite a few years in Harrisburg working for Bell Atlantic(Verizon), the Commonwealth at (Commonwealth Technology Center) CTC, Keystone Bldg etc all technology related. I have a few good friends here and visit...

    Good places to fly near Harrisburg, PA

    Really? I've driven by that bridge a gazillion times. Are you going to be in the Harrisburg area Saturday? I'm going to be up that way and would love to go around and get some footage but I'm still a bit skittish about what's safe and fair game and what one should stay away from. I'd love if...

    Central PA (Hershey/Hummelstown/Harrisburg Area)

    I'm in the area today. I'm from New York City but spend most of my time in Rockville Maryland. If someone's flying in the Hershey area or anywhere near Harrisburg PA today that's "safe" please reach out. I'm here through tomorrow evening and would love to get some good footage of the area.

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    I received two of these crafts. The first one flew impressive but without warning fell from the sky. I returned it for a replacement that had gimbal problems on Arrival. Both of these were not the Starlight version you see in the video here. They were earlier (pre-release) beta's I think as...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    I definitely agree with you! There's one guy who reviews a lot who trashed it. The MFR responded there are "pre-final production" crafts out there that people have gotten their hands on which were loaded with inconsistencies. Additionally, the MFR also stated the craft the current android...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    Having watched other reviews, the specifications on the craft state the maximum memory card it can handle is 64gb. Every review I've seen where someone used a 64gb card, they got no video. A few people stepped the card down to 32gb and had success. I think that's why Dustin's recordings and...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    I've ordered one but let's be level about this. At this time right now, it's got mavic like features and the internal hardware is good but the software has a ways to go to catch up with the Mavic. I'll post some footage when mine arrives

    Here's a screen of the new firmware Upgrade/Update. These are from screen prints as I do not have my own as yet.

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    Masheen I'm still waiting. I did see some footage from Aliashanmo video and his review was horrible. The footage wasn't sharp and it had some jello... that's right I said Jello. I've never seen anything like his showing before "ON ANY CRAFT". I'll post the link after I'm finished. I have...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    Maybe my comments were a bit strong and for that I'll apologize so please accept this as such. I was really directing the comments to the audience as not everyone is as fluid with open flying. DJI has done the impossible in that most novices can fly their crafts without tragic incidents. Me...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    If not in GPS mode, a racing copter is a racer. NO ONE's racer when in full race mode holds altitude. That's not a flaw, that's how Racers work... ALL OF THEM. Racing is not for everyone, additionally, if not flying FPV, there's no headless mode so everything is reversed. One really needs...

    Walkera Vitus - finally a serious contender to the Mavic?

    I've ordered one and am waiting for its arrival. I am more anxious to see reviews from some known reviewers. The video I've seen this far has been unimpressive. Let's wait to see when it's compared side by side with a mavic or a karma.

    The QR's you refer to i thought were garbage. I thought they were ugly too so I never got one.
