Sorry for the insanely late reply. I missed that there was an update to the thread. I never heard back from them.

I had one for a few weeks before returning it for multiple reasons. I wear glasses and they fit under inside the goggles without problems. I was able to see the display clearly. My issue was that I couldn't see both the display and the drone due to the extreme bright light where I am (central...

This should send them scrambling under their beds. ?

I'm sorry but I'll have to disagree. I had one for a few weeks, from Amazon, and returned it. It may be where I live. I'm in central Texas and the sun is BRIGHT during the day. For me, it was either I couldn't see the app display or I couldn't see my drone. I had to use the sun shades and...

Back to the original topic... I got an email from them on May 17th, telling me that my order will ship the week of June 24th. Here's the content of the email I received:

I've run mine for around 12 batteries or so. I've got all my gain settings down to 80%. I've seen the motor current error a few times but not as many as with the OEM props. Also, I have noticed some wobble while hovering. Doesn't reflect in video due to the awesome gimbal. I've also put it...

Quote from email sent to me by FT Aviator: "we expect the FT Aviator to ship in 2Q 2019 in the US" It's April 5th, which is officially 2Q. So, where is it??? I want!!! *Throws tantrum to end all tantrums* *sigh* Time to watch some more demo videos to whet the appetite again. :)

I should've said something earlier but the reason I asked about permission wasn't about laws, but just being a good neighbor and not unnecessarily making it that much easier to find their home. I'm currently working in computer security and find it disgusting just how little privacy that we...

Zilker Park is supposed to be a good place. I've been told that all parks in Austin allow drone flying.

Thanks everyone for your help on this. I appreciate the clarification.

Does this mean I should join the AMA? It mentions flying within the programming of a nation-wide community-based organization. So far, I've been flying in my neighborhood, trying to be nice to my neighbors. So far, no complaints. I've also flown in 2 local parks. I checked their websites and...

Question for you. Beautiful picture, btw. Did you get permission from the property owner to post the pic? I only ask because the GPS info is still in the pic's metadata.

For fun, I signed up for a 2 day drone GIS mapping class at a local community college. The first day (today) was a discussion about drones, in general, FAA rules, part 107 certification and usage of drones in mapping industries and such. I got confused by one thing that the teacher said. He...

I paid more attention to the issue today and noticed that it did happen in sport mode far more than P mode. It also happened in P mode if I was flying at speed and let go of the stick. So, maybe this is a speed issue after all. So, here's a question. Is this an issue on other DJI drones? Is...
