Nobody "owns" a DJI drone,you are only leasing it,it still remains the property of DJI ,true story ,that !!!;);)

This "service" registration Database,could be run on a midrange laptop from someones house, so where this £ 1 million plus figure to run the database comes from ,is anyones guess, someones wants to make cash,its a total ripoff,all carrot and no stick,the FAA @ $5.00 for 3 years is far more...

Oh yes we can,the daily fail never stops .........unfortunately !!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Anyway John,we are all pilots mate,so enjoy your flying,as we all doThumbswayupThumbswayup

No worries John mate,peace out :)

Yep your most certainly making a mountain out of a molehill,that we can agree on!

Yes,but the point here,is if you are flying a drone,do not get distracted,by trying to multi task YOU ARE FLYING AN AIRCRAFT,and should be aware and in control.as i said,a bit like texting and driving if your going to fly ,fly if you want to do ANYTHING else land your aircraft first.If i have...

Have to agree ,either fly your drone,OR land your drone and surf the net,its a bit like idiots who text while driving....:) fortunately i dont have GA or SIRI as i now use the smart controller,

I am not sure GA is a problem,however,i can see that a mavic or phantom hitting a person in the head is not so much about the actual force,or speed but more likely the very real danger is those spinning props,and they can cut and injure.there was a case of a toddler who lost an eye because of...

Another reason the hobby of drone flying is doomed??

This looks like a great idea,unfortunately,here in blighty,i fear our 400ft of airspace is going to be hijacked by the likes of Amazon,so will (excuse the pun)never take off in the UK!!!!However,you may well be ok in the statesThumbswayupThumbswayup

Never ceases to amaze me ,when just going up a few hundred feet ,even where i live the things you see that you never knew were there,and you have lived there for years!Also it is very therapeutic,and is the first thing i will do if i am stressed,or at least thats my excuse for always...

So,how did you deal with this annoying kid,when he tried to pickup your drone?;);):)

I think,just to be safe i will not be flying on that day,and when i next take off i will keep close to the ground,for 1 battery,just to be sure...Although,im sure if there are any problems,DJI are aware,and will roll out the firmware for the fix if needed..ThumbswayupThumbswayup

As Meta4 correctly says,this is no problem,you are connecting to the mavic,which does not need or have a connection to the internet. Your phone is just giving you a standard notification.So,you should be good to go,though i would recommend using the proper controller;);)
