    Any advice on how to start your own business from scratch?

    Hey friends, I got my FAA's part 107 license some time ago in the NY state. I live in a small town here in upstate New York. I registered with DroneBase and that doesn't offer many job offers. Luckily, I have had enough experience flying my bird (Mavic 2 Zoom) and there's simply no reason not to...

    Anyone has any experience with Activetrack's Spotlight?

    I see people using trace and profile all the time. No attention is given to Spotlight, however. Does anyone use it and know its strengths? No YouTube videos on this topic. I know the drone focuses only the camera on you and does not move without your input. Has anyone tried filming something or...

    Landing / recovering UAV at speed on a ship

    Bro, don't turn off the motors! I see people on YouTube landing their drones like crap. I don't use a landing pad, nor flat ground, but my sole hand and it's a breeze to take off and land. Only thing you have to do is turn off "landing protection" in the settings menu. This way it will not scan...

    Certification # pending after registering with IACRA?

    I passed my Part 107 test and registered on the FAA website. The two questions I struggle with are: when you're a commercial pilot, do you have to register your drone under "commercial" section of FAA or is it fine to fly with a hobbyist tag even though you're licensed business pilot? Why does...

    What's the point of JPEG in Mavic 2 Series?

    The parallax effect is what it's called. You cannot get this with the Pro version, that's why it's interesting to me. Thank you for reply you all!

    What's the point of JPEG in Mavic 2 Series?

    Hey everyone! I'm a new pilot and I have a M2Z. When I take photos, raw looks good, but JPEG is just a no. What's it there for? Any of advanced photo modes like super res., hdr, hyperlight automatically switch to jpeg. Why is that? Am I not getting something? Also, how do you collapse the...

    Drone Laws in Turkey 2019

    Hey everyone, I'll be travelling to Turkey soon and no matter how much I searched, I still don't know whether it's safe to take Mavic 2 Zoom with me. Can anyone help me out of experience whether I have to register it or else prior entering the country? Thank you

    When travelling to another country what are the most important things to keep in mind?

    I have heard people were forced to pay tax at the airport for their drone, why and when is that? Also, do they get to know, check the registration (like here in the US with FAA), etc? Thank you!

    New Commercial Pilot

    I'm a recreational flyer interested in getting into commerce and business. Would anyone list all the steps from the moment of acquiring your Part 107 license to actually gaining money from footage? Thank you
