    Dealing with passers by who hate drones?

    Really good advice here. I am new to flying drones and have yet to meet any hostile people. I registered to fly at a local RC club for now so I can practice in a safe environment. It's a great location not too far from the city. I previously had found a good spot on a dead-end road in the...

    Accuracy of NRC drone site selection tool

    You are right, 150m would be above 400 feet. It wasn't clear to me at the time if it was considered controlled airspace because of the warning (my drone was on the ground when I got the warning so I did not fly). I did find the information I was looking for online. Don Drones On has a video...

    MA2 doesn't do NTFS?

    My Canon DSLR did the same thing many years ago. There was speculation that the 4 gb limit was due to extra EU import fees if the camera was classifiable as a camcorder. It seemed to be an industry standard at the time. It was worse with the DSLR as the recording actually stopped.

    Mavic Air 2 (CN)

    Mine says USA and CA. The NA ones have airsense. I would check to see if there are warranty implications.

    MA2 cheat sheet

    does anyone have a 1 or 2 page cheat sheet for the MA2? Reading through the 50 page manual now but would be great to have a short summary of the important things to remember.
