    Why no Bluetooth connection to RC from phone?

    I am only ashamed of myself for not wondering those same things. I just bought a stupid pouch to hold my cell phone so I can fly my Avata. (has to be connected all the time) With more and more remote ID on the horizon we are going to wind up hanging ourselves in our cables.

    Prisoner charged in drone drop scheme

    This guy got busted big for delivering drugs and phones to Fort Worth prisons. Maybe the most fun article I have ever read. Punchline, when you use a drone for a crime? GET RID OF THE LINKED CONTROLLER WITH VIDEO. So much better for law enforcement than leaving fingerprints and a driver's...

    Antenna booster

    Me too. I bought antenna boosters for my Mav 2 and could not see a difference. A pretty good test of them I think because I am running a 2-mile waypoint program, so very repeatable.

    Mavic 3 Strobe lights

    I didn't even know where my GPS module was located nor did I even consider it. Have had it on my Mavic 3 for over a year and fly out 3-4 miles on a regular basis. Guess mine is mounted over the GPS module. If it effects my GPS, it isn't enough to care about.

    Batteries

    Excellent on the heat created by the "auto discharge" feature. Surely never thought of that.

    New guy, Fort Worth, Texas

    Thank you friend! Never heard of the park but not so far from me! (downtown Fort Worth) Funny, have been flying for 5 years and have never seen anybody else fly, at least up close. My wife is sick of my drone talk. Would be fun to talk to people that get it. :)

    New guy, Fort Worth, Texas

    Have been flying drones for 5 years. Have purchased 3 Mavic 2 pros, a Mavic 3, and an Avata. One of my Mavic 2's is at the bottom of a river. Long story. My new Avata is with the motion controller and Goggles 2. Got my Part 17 license 4 years ago after getting a little spanking from the FAA...
