    To Canadian Pilots only ! .

    I think it’s a great idea! It may stop some people who would normally bug you from interrupting your flight.

    Refresh or keep flying

    If you didn't have refresh, I'd just suggest that you put some epoxy on the leg/engine crack to secure it, and the "puncture" to keep moisture out - and continue on! But, with Refresh, you'll have a refurb drone and be all set. That's what it's for!

    Canadians who ordered MA 2 directly from DJI

    I’m in Ontario. It’s been a couple of years since I ordered my magic pro from DJI, but I seem to recall that it sat in “awaiting shipment” and then arrived at my door in a couple of days! I think their system status lags the actual progress. I’m not sure that this is still the case, but cross...

    Hi Canada

    No, you’re not crazy! I fly in Ontario - you have to be smart when choosing where to fly, but there’s a great variety. If you want to get a sense, download the “UAV forecast” app. It will give you an idea on what airports are around your potential flight areas and what might be restrictive.

    Canadian Drone Test Questions

    Yes. It was when I took it last year.

    Would you dare do this with your Mavic? (1 foot off the water, 40mph)

    very nice flying/editing! Fun to watch!

    After a flight do you format SD (after saving media)

    This is what I do as well. I have only once tried to fly and had the bird tell me my card was full. I always format in the bird. I had problems when I tried to format outside.

    "Norwegian Dawn" Cruise Ship

    yup - we inquired about the small pool. It is for crew; and we never saw anyone in it in 14 days!

    The Litchi Application

    I agree, it’s worth the cost. It’s great for waypoint planning.

    "Norwegian Dawn" Cruise Ship

    we sailed on the Dawn a year ago out of Puerto Rico through the southern Caribbean.....it is a great ship, nice size with only about 2500 passengers. We liked the beverage package (LOL). Staff was terrific!

    fears of flying over water

    one nice thing about flying over water is that you're more likely to have a nice clear line of sight, and the signal does too.

    Flight Through Time - A Year Long Journey

    Very nicely done sir! I keep wanting to do a flight with seasonal transitions at our place. What do you use for editing/transitions?

    DJI NO Tax Free Shipping Question

    yup.... it's been 2 years since I purchased, but the free shipping and no duty is why I bought directly. There was no issue with DJI.... the price you see is what you pay. Came right to the door for the quoted US$.

    SD Card error 10023

    I'm not sure that this will apply to your situation, but thought that I'd offer it in case it helped. I found that it was best to let the Mavic format the card. Some changes made to my card on my laptop caused unusual situations in the Mavic. The situations weren't intuitively a result of...

    is the MM its own worst enemy?

    I trust the app as a forecast, but apply the logic; if the app forecasts the winds to be too high, then I don’t fly; OR, if I “judge” the real winds to be too high, then I don’t fly.
