Wow! I did not know this was a possibility without a strike. I would have figured that the forward pull of the props to move the craft forward would also keep the arms ahead of any deflection wind force pushing back. I really do learn something new (to me) every day around here. The next...

Great....before you know it, it's going to be illegal to shoot drones out of a cannon at aircraft. [emoji23] Ok ..sorry... I liked this test though because damage can occur yes, but there needs to be comparison data vs. Birds etc. to really get to the actual risk. I also like it because I...

Michigan PI just beat me to asking if there was any expectation of privacy in public. I can see not hovering 10 feet over people not interested in being recorded. Beyond basic common sense situations I dont think you have to delete upon request in public areas.

Well, (I believe) their point was that you don't ban cars because of that. Or ban drones because they are capable of bad things. Instead safeguards should be put in place. Or counter measures to prevent. This thread has however become irrelevant. Safe flying.

And, that whole point was....it wasn't an irrelevant comment.

Well, you just illustrated my point. That's exactly right. It's not the drone or car that's the issue.

Aww, that's so cute said the FAA. Just my opinion.

For what worth....I think you should go look for it again. I think you will find it not in river. Good luck.

Yep.

Look at 9 seconds in or 21 or 22 seconds to go when the plane, a camera shake and the music chord mysteriously occur together. The video changes speed as the traffic below and to left of plane slowsdown at the same time. I know things are edited to look good with music but to me it it's too...

I flew near another aircraft (couldn't really see, since it was so foggy). Then I found out it was a military helo....UGH...not again.... Fine it was decommissioned years ago and sits at the local American Legion. Also, the picture doesn't really show that the Mavic is almost out of the...

I run it on an S8+ and have not had the issues some have reported. I dont know if that means it could be something else besides the platform or something within it. Over 40 hours in the air on it.

I took a video but only looking straight down. It was amazing how dark it became - and amazing how the trees for a time look like 3D rendered objects vs. leaves etc. I will try to find and post.

I wonder if its possible, but a question of recognition? I am thinking if you had a uniform background and close enough to it to see the shape it would lock on to it to follow. Honestly its a good question. I have never tried it nor seen it.

Wait a minute.....Chuck Norris is pretty official! Of course I agree with you that as for the rest..... who knows.
