    Close encounter with an ultralight aircraft - ADS-B did its job

    Whoa. That looks like a beautiful place to fly though.

    Are you interested in delivering food and drinks with your drone for cash?

    I applaud your enthusiasm and get go. I personally don't see how this is feasible. I checked your site and there is not much info there. Have you received any startup funding or are you bootstrapping this yourself?

    FRUSTRATED! S7 Edge - Too much wasted time.

    Wait, so you say the Apple/DJI partnership was just to sell iPhones? Seriously? The partnership was an attempt t get DJI products into Apple Stores. That's pretty much it.

    What do Mavic Pilots Drive?

    NICE! I have a 67 wagon in the garage gathering dust and taking up space. I need to do something with it ASAP.

    Saving battery by shuting off engines midflight

    Haven't gone through the entire thread, but how much battery would you expect to save? Makes no sense in reality.

    (Poll) How old are we?

    52 here, but 50 is the new 30, right? I'm still doing the stuff I love...just slower. :)

    Anyone ever do anything outside the box...

    Those are pretty nice! Great idea.

    Flying over I-75 on thanksgiving ...... i am looking for feedback this my 3rd flight

    Overexposed. Subject matter is meh. I'd never fly over a highway, but that's me.

    Low noise Props - excessive vibration?

    I'm calling fake on the boxed set as well. They spelled "Propeller" wrong. DJI is so image conscious in terms of their design I can't see them making this mistake.

    Got a warning I've never seen before

    Great photo. Looks like it was a beautiful day to fly.

    I've had enough of the (cr)app

    You meant Galaxy 4S, right? That is a pretty old phone, and eventually software updates push the phone past limits the can't achieve. Time to upgrade.

    The prodigal drone has returned!!!

    Amazing story! Glad it got home.

    Let's hear it for the little guy!

    Some people always have to be negative. I agree the Mavic is a great bit of engineering. And brick wall? How about a concrete and stone fence? That was my first crash, and it was hard, and the only damage was a couple scratches on 2 props. After I popped the gimbal in place it was perfect.

    Poll: IOS or Android?

    A lot of people? Most people buy, as you say, butchered Android devices. In fact, here in the US Samsung rules. The Google devices are a small minority. I do get your point though.

    NFZ with permission - DJI says "no"

    The restrictions are baked into the Mavic. It knows where the restrictions are by GPS and software. How would you figure the Tower would let it fly? What could they do to unlock your flight? Nothing.
