No, not at all. You have to be somewhat close to the house to get good real estate photo/video. The difference between the 400' limit with recreational and Part 107 is that if a 107 has a job to inspection a 500' tower, the 400' limit is added to the structure being inspected. So for a 500'...

According to the bill, SB1422, the expectation of privacy is usually covered by fencing. It states that if a homeowner can stand in their yard, and others who are standing outside the property cannot see them, then there is an expectation of privacy on that property. Google Florida Senate Bill...

I fly the same, high and fast. And I was taking aerial real estate video for a good friend of mine. His neighbor next door gor agitated, saying I was spying. If my friend wasn't outside with me at the time, who knows how it would have gone down. But the proposed stupid bill gives homeowners the...

Of course the Mini 4 is going to have more trouble in wind, it's 249 grams. I have a Mini 4 Pro and a Mavic 2 Pro. The M4P has many features that I wished were part of the M2P. But in Florida, winds can be strong and they can come out of nowhere, that's when I fly my M2P, because it is heavier...

I have a Mavic 2 Pro and a Mavic Mini 4 Pro. I love my M2P because being a bigger drive, it can handle the Florida wind gusts beautifully. But all of the new features in the MM4P are amazing, and it can do so much more than my M2P can. I don't see myself upgrading anytime soon having the MM4P.

I bought that case a few weeks ago. It's awesome.

I clipped a tree with my Magic 2 Pro. It broke 1 arm, 2 motors, and the body. My DJI care expired. I sent it in for repairs completely expecting a $400 bill. They repaired the entire thing and shipped it back in 9 days for $93.

I look forward to hearing how you like it.

For me, as a 107 pilot, I register any drone I have that can produce good video. That protects me in case I ever decide to use the footage later.

I got a Mini 4 Pro Combo. My 1st drone was a Mavic Mini, and I also have a Mavic 2 Pro. I am amazed at the technology advancement in the M2P over the other 2.

I find it very easy. At first I was confused because I was trying to attach it like the one in my MM1 and M2P, which is like a puzzle. When I realized it just slide in, I was impressed.

Here in Florida, winds can build in no time. On my maiden flight, winds were mild when I took off. But about 20 minutes later, I started getting high wind warnings. On the ground the wind was steady with some powerful gusts. On the route I was taking back home, the winds were crosswinds, not...

It is a bit cumbersome, but it seems to do a good job protecting the blades. Those of us who started with the original Mavic Minis remember the problem with the unprotected blades, and the drones dropping out of the sky or losing control of the drone.

In addition to taking more risks, which I also do for the same reasons you said, things can change while flying that you cannot control. After flying my M2P for years, I was flying in a hit summer day. During the flight, sustained winds went from ~5 mph winds to about 15 with higher guests. RTH...

Pricy, but fun. Some say building FPV drones is addicting, but I don't believe it. I can quit whenever I want to, I just don't want to. 😉
