You can get a 30 day trial of Pix4D or Agisoft Metashape.

Don’t wast your time paying for one. 3DR offers a great free guide and there are many more like it. If you google “3DR part 107 Test Prep” you will easily find the right site. Just study and take a few practice exams and you will no doubt be able to pass!

Either needs a stick calibration or a new compass calibration.

I’m not sure about the privacy issue but it’s a good question. As for flying without cell coverage, you can absolutely fly without it. The only thing you won’t have access to is a realtime map or aerial background.

Great info Owen! Sounds like just what I'm looking for

Awesome, sounds like it's a must have app if you want some extra functionality! Any other nice features worth mentioning in Litchi?

I'm assuming my issue is user error or just being a total noob but here goes! In the example above picture, is there a way to move or hide the POI settings menu so it doesn't block my record and camera settings menu? If I can hide it, how would I get that menu to open again without stopping...

This is in Chestnut Ridge park. In western NY.

It depends what you're into. I typically film nature stuff as apposed to buildings and events. A few places I have found very enjoyable to film at are Griffis Sculpture Park, Chestnut Ridge, Strawberry Island, Beaver Island, the Buffalo Harbor area, and as you mentioned Niawanda Park. I've...

One of the natural wonders of the United States filmed with a DJI Mavic Pro and 3DR Solo. Anyone visiting Western NY should add this to their hit list. Enjoy!

Welcome! Another Buffalonian here. There are some amazing places to fly around WNY if the wind ever lets up!

Just added the Mavic to my sUAS fleet and I'm still trying to get familiar with all the settings and options. I think this shot came out pretty nice after much editing. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
