    Is better to have your phone in aeroplane mode or not?

    Both iOS and Android give the ability to turn on/off WiFi and BT in airplane mode. Maybe I didn't understand your point exactly.

    Short range,,,,very short

    FCC forced mode, will solve your range issues. You'll find many videos on YouTube, like this random one.

    Some irresponsible drone owners

    Most of us, forget that we are talking about already regulated airspace, and about violations of these regulations. This is an authorities problem. They cannot enforce their own regulations. Do you think, that more regulations will solve THEIR problem? Do you think, that if we ALL agree that...

    Sydney drone incident

    They should close the park, because someone saw a drone! And those who drive into people with their cars, are ruining it for all of us, the responsible drivers who drive carefully within limits and regulations.

    iPad requirements

    I didn't mean obstacles in the route of the drone, but obstacles that can stop active track, because of losing sight of the subject been tracked. It's obvious that when using automated modes, we must be careful. I don't use them often, but it's an advantage of Follow Me mode, the fact that...

    iPad requirements

    I don't know if Active Track is better that Follow Me. It depends. Follow Me can track our device, even if obstacles come between AC and RC, from bigger altitude, and generally when Active Track fails, Follow Me works better. Also, updating home point is critical for those flying from boats...

    Silencing the buzzer inside the Controller

    My MP controller, stopped beeping by itself. Works great, but it's very quiet. I think it's a clever controller, understanding operator's needs.

    iPad requirements

    You don't need Bluetooth, WiFi or cellular network, to fly a DJI drone. But if you want GPS on iPad (not necessary), you have to buy the cellular version. In this case, you can fly without a SIM card at all.

    DJI What a joke.

    There were problems with Spark batteries, so DJI made a mod, and new batteries come, with a little bigger metal pin.

    Be gentle with your equipment. Treat it like the expensive camera that it is.

    I store all my drones, in their cases, with props on. Never had issues, and my props, motors etc are as new.

    Magnetic or Reversible charging cables: Do they work for you?
