    Apple Mini 4 or DJI Smart controller

    I use a Ipad Mini 4 and love it, it is WiFi only NO DATA SERVICE, and works great. I would use a iPad mini 4 over the controller due to it is a lot bigger screen and way easier to use. This way you have a multi-tool rather than just a controller.

    Law enforcement question?

    You are 100% correct, as you mentioned, you have the right to help save someones life regardless of the law and you should make every safe effort to do so. Standing by doing nothing when you could can get you in trouble.

    Is Showing Your FAA # Smart

    Showing or placing your FAA numbers in site is no different than a license plate on a car, its there for a reason (to identify you). It is also a matter of public record in some cases. If your afraid of showing you numbers then you should not be flying. If someone used them for illegal...

    Does DJI Go 4 still work fine for iPad Mini 4?

    you do not need an internet connection to fly your drone! WiFi only mini 4 will work fine with no problems.... I have a Mini 4 WiFi only and it works great... if you need maps just connect to home WiFi and cache the map area you want, or connect the MiNi 4 to your Cell Phone's personal hot spot...

    How many lost drones in the water does it take before you learn not to fly over water and that you should not do it... or at least do it with a life jacket on the drone....

    Love the new drone but my neighbor doesn’t...

    Neggy- Sorry, I was not implying anything toward you or your post, you are correct %100. I was just making sure that the event the neighbor accused him of was in fact the problem and it could happen in VLOS or NOT. Its a matter of accusations that may not be true and hurts everyone, as you...

    Love the new drone but my neighbor doesn’t...

    VLOS has nothing to do with what the neighbor is accusing the pilot of doing. The pilot could have been in VLOS or Not, the neighbor does not own or control the airspace, especially at 309 Feet up. If the Pilot in this post is telling the truth about his flight, then I believe the neighbor is...

    Warning to Trackimo users

    When I purchase my Trackimo I read all the info a couple years ago, they specifically explained in the Documentation the 2G systems with ATT and others are discontinued or being discontinued, so I purchased a 3G system. If you read the info you would have known that 2G was not usable in the US...

    Considering ipad Mini - question regarding WiFi only.

    I use a iPad Mini 4 WiFi only and you will not be giving up anything....You do not need data plan to fly your Mavic, just make sure you turn it on and everything is updated before you leave home, this would include caching the maps at the place you are heading out to fly at... do not let anyone...

    The last time I will ever use ebay for selling a drone

    Someone more than likely hacked into his E bay account and as you know E bay and PayPal are one in the same the owner of the account more than likely has his pay-pal account attached to his E bay account due to E bay owns PayPal... so the person ordered a drone and intercepted the package when...

    Wait for Mavic Pro II ?

    You are 100% correct, only thing I hate is the more enhanced it gets the more faults that seem to arise in the software....yes I would love to see a Mavic Pro 2 (or what ever name it will be called) actually the more I look at the Mavic Pro (yes I have one) the more I want too see it being...

    Wait for Mavic Pro II ?

    Where did you or anyone get the assumption that there will be a Mavic Pro II, get the deal you are looking at and enjoy life, you can go on wishing and hoping all your life and you will end up with nothing! There may never be a Mavic Pro II!

    Current ETA of the Mavic II?

    Not sure where anyone in the world even got the Idea a Mavic Pro 2 would even be made, this all started by people wishing and wanting, not something real or anything suggested by DJI .... Its nice to Dream, but thats more than likely all it will be....
