    Going from the U.S. to Greece in 10 weeks. Anything that I need to know about taking my drone?

    I'm flying an Air 2S. But based on what you've just said, I may just go get a Mini 4 so that I can stay under the 250g limit, and have fewer hurdles to jump through to fly. Thank you for your input.

    Going from the U.S. to Greece in 10 weeks. Anything that I need to know about taking my drone?

    Hey everyone. As the title states, I'm going to Greece shortly, and want to take my drone with me. I'm strictly a noob at both flying as well as knowing the rules for intercontinental travel. I remember seeing a gentleman on this form who posted videos of/from Greece a lot last year when I...

    3 Chicago Riverwalk

    Wow. I lived in/near the city for 35 years. To say I dislike Chicago is a drastic understatement. But you've captured it beautifully. Awesome pictures and video. Very nice job!

    “NO GPS fly with caution” message MA2S

    I get that message often when taking off from my heavily wooded property. It will say what you've said, as well as "max altitude is limited to 98'" or something like that. If I just fly up to 75' or so, I'll quickly acquire more GPS signals, and all of the "warnings" will disappear. If I'm...

    2 Pro Lake of the Woods in northern Minnesota

    Yes, Ice fishing the lakes in sleeper shacks is about just as popular as open water fishing is. It's a way of life there.

    2 Pro Lake of the Woods in northern Minnesota

    I drive passed that Walleye about two out of every three years. I've stayed at Slim's, Ballard's and Wheeler's Point. But the one you didn't mention that I love the most is Cyrus Resort. They're all great though. I also shop in the grocery store right behind the Walleye statue every year. I...

    How do I find other drone pilots?

    He knows that, and so does everybody else on here. You may want to remove the stick and cut the kid some slack.

    How do I find other drone pilots?

    He means that he would never fly into somebody else's drone INTENTIONALLY. You DO realize that this young man is autistic, right? He's just trying to meet people that he can gain some friendships with.

    The Best Beginner Drones for 2022

    I've got an Air 2S that is my first drone, and I haven't had any problems learning to fly it. In all honesty though, I'm not a photographer or videographer by any stretch of the imagination, so I keep all my settings for that stuff on "auto", but as far as ease of flying and being user-friendly...

    Advice on how to handle neighbor?

    @AFAngryWarrior, I think you handled the situation perfectly. I also subscribe to establishing a paper-trail with the police. This way, if there's any further problems, they can refer back to the initial situation and see that he was the aggressor in the then and is likely the same in any new...

    Advice on how to handle neighbor?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but you stated that you're RETIRED, correct? If so, please explain how it would be aggravated battery of a peace officer. So, is there a charge of assaulting a RETIRED P/O? I doubt it since you didn't mention that. Your whole response sounds like B.S. to me. You...

    Advice on how to handle neighbor?

    Depending on your state, pulling a firearm, (even if you're not pointing it at anybody) can/will be considered "brandishing" a firearm. Especially if in the middle of an argument or confrontation while doing it. You could possibly lose your FOID card, and face other repercussions.
