    Nuclear batteries for drones?

    Wouldn't just the shielding required to keep it "safe" to be around make it prohibitively heavy to do much with? It works well for space craft because 1 - there's nobody around to get blasted with a dose of radiation that emits from the battery and 2 - weight is only really a concern on...

    3 Snow Day in Middle Tennessee

    They make hunting gloves that either have the entire finger area covered with a flip-back mitten or the trigger finger only has a flip-back cover. That way you can use your fingers but you can still flip it over to warm back up easily. they even have pockets to put in handwarmers too. :)

    Inches From Disaster

    did you, with a completely straight face, literally just compare the person who needlessly put himself in completely unnecessary danger for the "perfect video shot" to the people in the military who bravely conquered space (or at least our small part of it)? really?...REALLY? Yup, this...

    Inches From Disaster

    If someone wants to be ... un-smart ... and do things that will (likely seriously) hurt themselves then that's on them. At least until regulators get involved to try to protect people from themselves. Which is where almost every safety initiative/rule came from, btw ("Jackass the Movie" but in...

    The Latest Effort to Ban DJI in America.

    I find the "security" concern a bit questionable. I'm pretty sure I saw it mentioned in the video that there were a few governmental organizations that would be exempt from the ban...including the Departments of State, Justice and Defense. Aren't those government departments the exact ones who...

    Review of the Skyreat Mini 4 Pro soft sided bag

    Full disclaimer: I received this bag for free for posting a review of the bag and this is that review. I'll say that getting the item for free in no way influenced the review (I'm not built that way ;)). This review is basically the same review that I posted on the Amazon page for the bag. So...

    Exactly my thoughts when I read it but you beat me to it. 😄

    I've got some strangeness going on with my Mini 4 Pro controller

    I'm pretty sure that the red line was still there the entire time I was flying even when the drone went off the map screen. Due to work and weather I still haven't been able to fly again to see if it's just a setting I had misconfigured. Hopefully in the next few days tho...

    3 Moab, Utah - Hurrah Pass & Chicken Corners - BLM Off-Roading

    I went to Moab almost 20 years back and loved it. I didn't have a drone back then (was that even a thing then?) but I could imagine how much better the experience might have been if I had one. I drove my own un-modded Jeep wrangler out there pulling a pop-up camper (from Indiana - quite the...

    I've got some strangeness going on with my Mini 4 Pro controller

    RC2 Hmm... ok I'll try that when I get a chance. the strange thing is that it does actually re-center itself every so often. I would think if it's a setting that it would never re-center. But I'll try it and see. Thanks for the suggestion.

    I've got some strangeness going on with my Mini 4 Pro controller

    I finally got a chance to fly the Mini 4 Pro today for the first time and I noticed something weird and I'm not sure if it's just me or if others have noticed it to. It's hard to describe (and I don't have an example of a controller screen recording to show it because it really caught me off...

    pros and cons of the new mini 4 pro

    I did exactly the same thing with the same results. And was surprised too. I then realized that when I ordered the Mini 3 Pro I ordered the drone kit (standard) and then the Fly More Plus Combo separately. So the standard kit came with the regular battery and the combo came with two extended...
