Manual should be interesting with the centering left stick on the mavic controller — I’m not sure how the mavic will react when stick is centered

Question — the wire from the gimbal board with the white clip, is that the power feed? What voltage should be present at the connector on the main board? I bought a crashed mavic of craigslist — had broken ribbon cable, vibration mount ,and both right arms Replaced everything needed — flys...

I've been trying to read some of those sectional airspace maps -- not for the novice -- I have no idea what class airspace it's in -- the before you fly app says all is good when on location How about Runway exclusion zones? -- I'm reading up on recreational drone guidelines and see it's a...

Only had the drone for a week -- have not tried to go over 400 feet It was just a question... So how about this -- It's not a cliff its a gradual hill thats 450 feet high -- Same thing, you start at the base of the hill Is the 400 foot altitude limit set from the start point only and will...

Ok Hypothetical -- lets say you take off at the base of a 450 foot cliff -- Will the mavic let you climb high enough to get over the top of the cliff or will it fly into the side of the cliff 50 feet below the top?

I see the legislation -- The state has banned all UAS from state parks -- this legislation doesn't seem to change that Now the municipal and county parks are a different story... From what I understand the whole township of Bernards has banned UAS from everywhere, even your own private...
