    Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Display

    I don't know about the partial screen but I have not been able to use my Samsung Tab . I get full screen but DJI4 will not connect a video feed. All other functions work. If I switch to my Samsung S9+ phone there's no problem. I want to use my Samsung tablet for the larger screen too. Is this...

    Gimbal Flight Cover?

    Yes, it works as a protective cover. (I use it frequently) but, you WILL get solar flare and image aberration and some distortion. I have attached a short video showing what you can expect. I do a full 360 rotation and you will see what happens when you shoot near angles to the sun. This is...

    Man killed retrieving drone .Was shocked

    Natural selection. Everyone knows not to mess with wires and high voltage. He could have easily called the public utility and they would have come down and removed and returned it with the proper equipment and trained personnel. Would it have been free? Probably not, but is being dead worth...

    New Pilot...now you guys have me confused and paranoid!

    Ok. And many thanks to all and especially for the link. I will be getting out to fly soon but recently there's been a public outcry in the next township over complete with "burma-shave" type signs. I'm absolutely sure there's a whole lot of misinformation about drones in general and certainly...

    New Pilot...now you guys have me confused and paranoid!

    Do I HAVE TO register my mavic pro to fly recreationally? Second, does the part 107 ONLY apply to commercial use? Third, is the 336 ONLY for recreational?

    Long flight times

    Only reason I have 5 is the pack came with 3 and they were all bad batteries. I bought 2 waiting for the 3 to be replaced under warranty but I'm hearing it should be ok to keep it airborne for the duration

    Hello from the frozen tundra..Wisconsin

    I thought it might be too cold. It is nice enough right now (sunny, clear,no wind) but I didn't think the MP could handle the temps. I know I would have to be in a vehicle after taking off. It's definitely too cold to be standing out there! Lol.

    Long flight times

    I am new. I would like information on whether or not it would be harmful for me to fly by just swapping batteries with no cool down period. I have 5 batteries or a combined flight time of around 2 hours. If I were to fly continuously would it be harmful to the motors without cooldown in between...

    Long flight times

    I am new. Wondering about long flight times. I received 5 batteries with my mavic pro. If I were to fly back to back with only enough time to swap batteries would that be harmful to the motors? Do I need to have a cool down in between battery swaps? It would equate to close to 2 hours straight...
