You seem to be right. From their website:

If you ran Android you can get the latest apps often before your own Play Store app will offer them to you if you install Aptoide app. It's a user submitted app repository. As app updates are generally rolled out sequentially, chances are that you're not the first one to receive an app and...

I'm not flying mine nearly as much as I could. Most mileage and footprints was made with Ph3, which in the end got impounded by customs during one of my border crossings :) Also, the speed...have no idea what happened there. Apparently, I also flew it in China, which I have not, as if someone...

Both times I used RTH was when I lost signal to the drone. Although, even then I was cancelling it as soon as I would get the signal back. Just a force of habit as I started with Ph3 which was flying home in a straight line, and that's not something I wanted AFTER I went behind some castle to...

No, I haven't had a chance to travel there yet, thus didn't register mine yet. There were some dirt cheap flights to Tel-Aviv, but I still haven't decided to go. It would be a shame not to check out Jerusalem and Dead Sea, that means rent-a-car, and that one generally requires a credit...

@raymo I guess that the registration days would be sent as a reply to their email with the specific dates they asked. Perhaps your first email ended up being a spam filter or the club staff forgot to respond. Might be worth emailing them again.

Recently I got up-to-date information from Israeli Aero Club about rules in Israel and here's what I've received from them:

I finally got around to opening a case with DJI, then send me the RMA and pre-paid postage label and yesterday I received a new battery. Checked it, 0 cycles on it. It does have a little scratch on it though (that's what prompted me to check the cycles) and the shade of gray is a bit lighter...

If you use your device as a daily driver it's advisable to reboot it every once in a while. Before a flight might me a good time. I'd say also that Android devices would benefit from it, they tend to slow down when running non-stop for days/weeks.

I use the bag that came with the Fly More bundle, I get to pack the drone and 3 batteries (one of which is in the drone), RC, spare cables, battery to power bank converter, some adapters and a thin box with ND filters. Any other bag would be too conspicuous. I remember the time with DJI Phantom...

Come on, for a moment I thought I came to a teenager forum where they discuss things vital to the identity of being a teenager [emoji1] I don't know how you reached irresponsible drivers and flyers again.

@Ignacio Well, you always have a flight path on your phone app. That one displays the last known position of your drone, so locating it should not be that much of a problem. Also, depends greatly on the terrain configuration.

I've noticed that the fire scenario is mentioned quite often. Is it because there might be an aerial assistance by Canadairs and fire fighting helicopters?

Back in late April when I purchased Mavic I stopped flying Ph3 on my iPad and started using my phone (Samsung S7Edge). Boy, was it a crappy experience. Still is, not sure if the app received some updates in the meantime, last time I fl,ew was early July. The app would become totally unresponsive...

Always aim for data redundancy. Buying only one drive would keep you covered, but not really. Any drive defect and you're in for a data recovery service. I got myself QNAP TS-451A NAS storage 7 months ago, with 2x8TB NAS drives and I still have 2 free slots to expand. It has many bells and...
