thank you, very helpful

good stuff, thank you

I hadn't thought of the reverse scenario, flying into a hill! Are you saying that the drone will not sense land rising, assuming a gentle slope up, on the controller? Whilst I understand that the drone will not automatically change its altitude, is there some way to see (other than LOS) that...

Mate, thanks for that. When explained like that it is very clear to understand Obviously you know what you're talking about. Clears it up for me nicely, thanks again

Great, I think I understand The altitude is set at the home point, thats what confused me. If I descend lower than the home point the controller will show I am (- feet) lower than the home point If RTH altitude is set at 50 feet then drone will ascend back to home point altitude plus 50 feet...

Maybe a lot of new flyers are as confused as I am. I have a Mavic 2 Pro....I have the maximum altitude set to 400 feet. When the drone reaches 400 feet it stops climbing and issues a warning; "you have reached maximum altitude" and I happily fly around at 400'. But what happens when I go over...

Has anyone ever flown off a high cliff? Lets say the maximum height is set for 400 feet and you fly from your home point over a cliff that is 1000 feet high. Will the drone descend to 400 feet and stay down there or will it just issue a warning and let you continue to fly at that height? How...

Is there a way to set up the "Go Fly" app or another app on a pc (windows 10). I don't want to fly from the pc just use it to play around wand set up the settings. It appears that that windows is not compatible but thought someone may have figured a work around thanks

Hi All I know this has been discussed before but I can't find anything on the search. Where are my dng. files? Sounds like a simple question but they seem to come and go - on my micro sd card I had both jpg. and dng. files, I put them on my PC and worked on them. Next time out, and leaving ALL...

No, in WA but often need to launch from the bush to access rivers and dams where the bush grows to the waters edge Some good ideas, thank you, I take it you're not a fan of Hot Pink I get excellent gps at take off but its the landing that I have problems with - maybe I will study the manual...

G'Day I am still very much a newcomer to this drone experience but after a few months I have a few questions. I regularly need to re calibrate the navigation on my Pro 2, I expects thats normal but often (not always) when using RTH the drone land up to 4M away from the take off point. It...

Thanks everybody, much appreciated

Hello I am new here so g'day from WA. I am also very new the drones having only JUST purchased one and still trying to figure out how it works and all the rules around its use. I see the rules say you cannot exceed 120M, fair enough but.... do the CASA rules apply everywhere within Australia...
