    Law enforcement question?

    Hypothetically, boating accident happens and somebody falls in the water cop comes up to me and ask if I can fly my drone up and down the river to see if anybody is bobbing in the water or on the shoreline. I am in D airspace. can I lawfully do that for that police officer? I am a Part 107...

    Airspace question

    That is what I'm confused about. You will notice that Barnes AFB is to the west of Westover. They also have class D airspace with times. Their airspace specifically states that the airspace is G when not D, but Westover specifically states class E when not D. If class E dosen't start at the...

    Airspace question

    Correct me if I'm wrong, 1200 - 0400Z would be 8 am to midnight local. But I get your meaning. Not trying to argue, just wanted to know if the Class E was from the surface or 700 ft. Thank you Sar104, and I'm not flying anywhere close to Westover, why would I, just wanted to be clear on the...

    Airspace question

    So theoretically at 7 a.m. I could put my drone up 300 ft and fly right over that airport. I'm not going to do it but I could according to the FAA?

    Airspace question

    I live on the edge of KCEF class D airspace. Its Westover ARB Western MA. On the VFR map says check times etc. And I do. It says class D 1200-0400Z, all other times Class E. Is that class E to the surface, Class E 700 or Class E 1200?

    Registration & part 107 question

    So I just bought a drone and was going to register it. When I got to the question of hobbiest or part 107, I hesitated. I do not have part 107 yet but just started studying for it. Thinking a week or two before I will sign up for the test. Should I wait to register it until I get my license...

    DJI stop making Drones

    I guess we will have to agree to disagree. This phone is fantastic and I have never had an issue with it running or utilizing any other software or hardware. Just because DJI doesn't work on it doesn't mean its a bad phone. I think it says more about DJI then about LG. And I dont know if...

    And I guess I will invest another $300 on a new/used cell phone making my investment in a drone over $2000.

    LG is obscure? Wow I know its only been around since the 60s but obscure is not a word I would have used for it.

    DJI stop making Drones

    I think that is the way I'm going to go. So you fly your drone and have no issues with disconnects, App crashes, or downloading firmware? That sounds great, I dont mind making an additional investment if it will fix the problems.

    DJI stop making Drones

    I just spent $1300 on a drone, I really dont want to go out and buy a $1000 IPhone. And if that is necessary, it should be in the specs. This phone is great and I have never had a problem with it doing anything else. Expandable memory makes it nice. I just want to able to take the drone out...
