    Is a stationary hyperlapse off a deck during a TFR illegal?

    What’s a TFR and what’s APEC?

    Mini 4 Pro weights for Drone and Batteries

    Theoretically, if you added a helium balloon down below, pushing up, that removed 2 g, would it make it legal to fly without a license? Inquiring minds want to know.

    Air 3 some pics from todays flights

    White horse down! Nice clarity. Looks like the black horse was in the process of lying down or getting up. (Pic #3, right side.)

    Super Blue Moon Wednesday evening!

    Oh come on, if a cow can jump over it, and I know that because I’ve seen it in print, surely our drones can hop over to it. 😂

    81-year old Navy pilot flies an Avata

    11 years ago when my pilot-trained FIL was near the end of his 96 years, I had a flying program on my laptop. It wasn’t as much fun by far, but he enjoyed it some. It wasn’t able to be FPV at the time. This is a great gift to be able to share with the elderly, as long as they don’t have a...

    Hello from the Finger Lakes

    Welcome to the forum! I’m an old timer with an original Mavic Air and a newer DJI FPV. I am not the 4K video guy, obviously. Just a flying for fun person. So get anything and get insurance if you care. You can always upgrade. Have fun!

    CEO CAMERON CHELL TALKS ABOUT DRAGANFLY'S HEAVY LIFT DRONE.

    Wow. Well, observation: it’ll be large enough to see it for a heck of a distance! 😂 And I’m sure that it’ll be flown way beyond field of view, so I want to be able to also. 30 Kg load! Amazing.

    Which drone to check on my roof, etc, and maybe for fun?

    I’m thinking an extension ladder and eyeball inspection would be choice for my roof. And even my original Mavic can see the roof if I only want to check if aliens landed.

    Solution: flying from a boat

    Brilliant. My one and only flight off a boat resulted in no usable video and a dunk in Lake Michigan within 3 minutes. Original Mavic Air. A quick couple of tacks by my friend and I got it back, thanks to the empty Pepsi bottle taped to the bottom of it. Thank goodness for DJI refresh at the...

    Help Me Graduate

    I think there should be a ceiling, like above 100 feet above the ground a drone should be flown in VLOS, but I have 1/2 mile of land and I like to sneak down trails with my drone and go see what’s in a pasture, and that’s soon BVLOS but I’d never come close to any aircraft at 75 feet high or less.
