IKR...it has a HUGE learning curve, and if you hang in there (simulator, and massivive semiconductor study a must), it's worth it.

Hi...yes battery management is a PITA, but doable. Honestly, how fast these things fly, having more than 5 minutes of flight time is exhausting because of the intensity of heightened awareness...the whole thing is an adrenaline rush. The pilot has to pay exacting attention ALL OF THE TIME. There...

Don't mean to upset anyone, but here goes. The Phantoms and the Mavics are your great grandfather' drone, and the DJI FPV is your grandfather's drone. Forget all of that Why? Geo fencing and other limitations Get yourself the DJI FPV goggles V2, and the DJI RC V1 with a Caddx Vista (or air unit)...

Hi...I'm new to FPV. I've never flown a 5". I went with 3" to get under the 250g all up weight, and still have good performance. I cherry picked all of my build parts. this matters for quality and reliability. As FPV drones increase in size so does the price of parts, battery cost and risk...

Being a hybrid, it's not that good as a camera drone (one axis gimbal), and not that good at FPV. I've spent the last nine months immersed in the world of FPV. Even though I have built my own FPV drone (a badge of honor in the FPV world), I'm not that skilled at flying, yet. FPV is remarkably...

Never had this issue with MP (1) Zoom never before. For the last 20 times it sounded all 20 times. I could only stop it by shutting down and restarting the controller. Usually, it took three shutdown and restarts to stop. I tried calibrating the sticks I read in here take off the magnetic...

I have the white ones (love em) and now the RE ones. I bought the RE version to fly analog FPV. The image quality out of an analog FPV is garbage, but the RE goggles have a DVR, which helps to learn FPV. Otherwise, I found the info below when I was researching the RE. Overall, the DJI...

If it comes up, tell them you can’t sell it, but you can give it to them and donations are always welcome. Maybe the last donation I received was $25

Thanks...I needed that

It's at least three years before the rules and fees are effective. The Zoom would be woefully outdated tech by then. If there was ever a time to get in, it's now.

Amazing considering it's battery powered

Time for me to renew...not sure it's worth it. Actually, pretty sure it's not worth it.

I would wager, that regardless of what flight mode, it will drift

Photographs - M2P Video - Zoom You could buy one or the other, and buy just the camera that you don't have, and swap them out as needed. There are many how to on YT.

When I first began to fly a drone; roughly three years ago, the whole process felt engaging and liberating. Now, it's somewhat depressing. I wasn't spying, or operating any mission of surveillance. Now, I'm being watched...weird. Everyone I know, who DOESN'T fly a drone, has a negative opinion...
