    Is the Mavic Air good enough?

    What seems to have been missed is that the majority of video and stills uploaded for our pleasure, particularly on You Tube, are a compressed compromise. On your monitor at home the images should, if you are any good as a photographer, appear quite remarkable. I have been astounded by the...

    Why Shooting A Drone Is NOT A Federal Crime Under 18 USC 32

    Whilst you have some pretty crazy gun laws in the US, the basic common law applies: it is criminal damage, therefore a criminal and civil offence. There can be no reasonable excuse for nor defence of proportionality.

    DJI stop making Drones

    Maybe the problem is the cable? Are you sure that it’s a verified Data cable? Never had any probs with Apple controllers for any Drones
