    FAA Accident and Incident Notification(s): Notice(s) Created 24-JUN-22

    I would hope he has insurance should they find the drone... and if it was registered with FAA. Sounds expensive!

    Lost my Drone,

    ALWAYS make sure you have a clear and open take off area. Should you have to use the RTH feature... this makes sure you won't be going threw trees.

    Phantom 4 Pro not taking unlocking license

    Well I can't believe no one has had this issue... even DJI support can't figure this one out! Still open to help. Thank God I have another drone that I can unlock... this one... I just have to fly in non locked areas.

    Phantom 4 Pro not taking unlocking license

    I have a Phantom 4 pro 2.0+. In the past I've had no issues getting a zone or custom unlock... importing it into the controller... seeing it under unlock licenses... BUT when I hit the blue icon to import to aircraft... I get a screen that comes up showing me the license... BUT that's it...

    Are vnd filters too heavy

    Got filters for my Mavic 2 Pro... it messed up my horizon on videos and pictures... even if I went in and changed it manually... just don't use them now. :(

    Feeling Like A Criminal when flying...

    Everyone who flies a drone is an ambassador for the drone industry. Our interaction with the public reflects on all of us. I'd recommend everyone who flies to get a part 107 cert to get familiar with all the things they DON'T know. It just makes you more aware as a pilot. I wear a green vest...

    Heck, I'm going bald

    Never is an overnight thing. Gradual. Depends on your age! lol... if you're young... it's a toughy... as you get older... married... not a big thing. With covid... I just ended up buzzing my head with a #1 on my clipper.

    Does everyone use filters?

    At first using filter... but it screwed up my horizen... on the gimbal. I thought gimbal was off... reset it manually... took off filter... no issues.

    Getting my 107!

    You can take a course... the info and practice exams will have you prepped to take the test. Should you not need it for work... I wouldn't get one.

    Part 107 gray area?

    The real root... insurance. Not recreational... BOOM insurance goes through the roof. I'm part 107... got the company to buy the drone AND the insurance!

    Drone intelligence going to another level

    Wow! Thank you for posting this. So many possibilities.

    Near miss!

    Given that... we are at the bottom of the chain. Looks like the helicopter was out over open water where there may be no minimum. Also... part 107 says that we have to maintain visual line of sight. Heck... 400 feet up or 400 feet away... I can't see mine...
