MIne isn't working either - but I haven't had time to dig into the settings to see if it is just something that got reset.

I think that was the point of this post by the o.p.

For the O.P. - I think an nvidia shield (which does have HDMI out) - is the way to use your big television. It should also be possible to connect 2 RC controllers and use the second one as a slave with the nvidia tablet connected to the monitor.

Are you recording the video to your phone? You may want to to disable recording and see what happens. I've had many less crashes since doing this - although it isn't ideal. I think if I had more free memory on my Pixel XL (32GB) it might work better. You also might try a different cable (unplug...

Not in the West. In Utah, the Obama created National Monument Bears Ears is bigger than all five national parks that are in Utah combined, at 2,112 Sq Miles. (Trump just signed an executive order to order review of Obama's executive order creating the bears ears Monument (and other muniments)...

kind of interesting that the federally produced B4UFly app only lists the actual National Parks, led me to believe only those were covered by the blanket restriction, but perhaps it is intended to cover all properties administered by the NPS.

As a follow-up, I think a discussion needs to be had with NPS about their blanket policy, which is supposed to be temporary while they develop more appropriate rules. I have been in parts of Canyonlands NP where I haven't seen another person (other than my group) for hours as we jeeped on a...

Horseshoe bend appears to be one of those locations that would be close enough to non-park service land to allow flying from non-nps property, assuming FAA restrictions can be complied with. The viewpoint for the bend is about .6 miles from the highway, and the park boundary appears to extend...

1080p60 mode isn't really functional. 2k mode will often yield better results than 4k. Need to pay attention to focus (although latest firmwares have improved this) Early mavics had some manufacturing issues - wiring inside wasn't wound well and could more easily cause electrical...

I can't remember where I saw the actual regulations, but they were in Spanish. It looks like the regulation was issued in May 2016 There is an English summary here: New Drone Regulations in Mexico | Global Media and Communications Watch Edit: Here's a few more links (in Spanish): Secretaria de...

I was there last week - too scared to fly in Mexico City, but had a great time flying in Zihuatanejo / Troncones after! I thought they adopted an even newer policy that had some interesting language about registration (similar to the U.S.), and foreigners needing to have registered in their...

The town of Springdale is adjacent to the West entrance for Zion canyon national Park. I can picture in my mind the Northwest side of that town, some little hills you could climb that would give you good LOS into Zion Canyon. You actually could get some good footage without crossing the park...

Drone pilot gets in the news, in a good way after spotting a stolen car. Drone flier spots stolen car in riverbed, man arrested | KSL.com

If you search on this forum, you'll find a story of someone that drove on a road, with the drone above them, and a trailwind of about 20mph. I seem to recall they made it 17 miles with 5% battery or so left

I returned yesterday from a 12 day trip to Mexico. 5 days in Mexico City and 7 days at a small resort with just family North of Zihuatanejo. While in Mexico city, I left the drone in the room safe the whole time. Illegal at the ruins and too many people everywhere else. At the private resort...
