    Pro You DON'T need a big drone to win big awards

    Such great work Chris, and congrats. Presented this way it makes us Aussies appreciate what we might take for granted a bit more, and you sure would make a non Aussie want to come and see/experience.

    Tell Us About Your Ag Business

    Well, I'm not sure just where the 'precision' fits with my use in agriculture in Australia. I use extensively to check stock watering points, water meters, crop monitoring, (sometimes using drone deploy to create an NVDI file), and most recently using active tracking to assist in...

    Air 2S Fly More Combo $998? Something is not right

    DJI are trying to gain some control of the marketing, in Australia at least, in regulating and having fairly stringent conditions to retail their consumer products. One very stringent condition is NOT selling on third party sites, (eBay, Amazon, Catch etc), and NOT selling to other retailers...

    2 Pro "Outback" Australia-new version

    Once again, great production and presentation Chris, makes one envious to spend more time doing this type of flying, rather than property management/monitoring. Have several of your productions for viewing at our local Community Library. One day when you're down south again. how about the Gawler...

    DJI Smart Controller......New Firmware Again...V01.00.0880

    Well, went through these posts and though 'should I or shouldn't I'? Needed to get the SC out and check charge anyway, so what the heck. Removed SD, needed reboot, left charge cable in charging, and started upgrade. Had organsised a few things to do in office whilst presumed long wait, watched...

    Its finally out! The SC support for MA2!

    Have been through all the posted problems here and other threads, yes, sucks for the clunkiness of the install. Took me 1½ days, simply because I didn't have the patience to sit and watch, touching the OK and Retry prompts, even saw where the original USB A-C cable had to be used rather than a...

    Unseen Australia

    Thank you for this Chris, do you have a few more along that coast? They would be ideal for the Council website for promotion if you allow. Would acknowledge where they come from etc. I've still got a lot to learn to get that quality. Actually lost my M2P around Mt Finke at the North of Goog's...

    Battery Discharge Adjustment?

    Thanks, that would add up, have experienced only 15 mins approx flight time several times after a few days.

    Battery Discharge Adjustment?

    So does that mean if one doesn't fly for a fortnight, the batteries stored in the carry case, they need charging before the flight, all of them? Have never investigated any of the options mentioned above. That may answer the question of short flight times after some time not flying.

    Take off from distance.

    Well, I had an experience similar to your 'hypothetical' yawyaw33, was virtually outback Australia, decided on a quick takeoff to get a vid I wanted of Mt Finke, during flight 'lost contact with aircraft', somehow regained contact, was panicking as it was way out of eyesight and earshot, pushed...

    Unseen Australia

    I'll try and get up there over the next week or so, and take a pic for you. The actual cave, (the Woolshed), is still intact.

    Unseen Australia

    Ok Chris, I am an elected member anyway, that's why I had so much interest. Yes Geoff is still there, although remotely from Adelaide ATM, family health issues. And thanks for that, I'm still learning, plucking up the courage to fly the thing everywhere. As a farmer, have done some tricky stuff...

    Unseen Australia

    Christangey, incredible how you've edited these to have huge interest. Have had a look at your Great Australia Bight video, 0:42, Talia Caves, not too far from my home, has been destroyed since you took that from a 'super storm' that can happen along this coastline. Where you are standing, is...
