    Controller interference warnings every flight?

    i have the interference issue mostly at home, and not just the warning. Nearest neighbor is 200 yds away and my property borders the national forest so even for northern NH i’m in the middle of no-where..... i havent had a chance to test it yet, but has anyone had a problem with an underground...

    Taking down a huge pine by crane

    Thanks! And yeah, I was surprised too that there was no traffic control as 10,000 lb plus pieces of the tree were suspended 100 ft up directly over the road..... More so that the electric company wasn't there a since hitting the lines (over the traffic on the road....) was the far greater risk...

    Taking down a huge pine by crane

    Buddy of mine has a logging company and asked if I'd film the operation. The tree was 125 ft tall, 2 ft from a building on one side, 4 ft from the power lines on the other and a busy road just beyond. Glad I was just flying the drone and not running the crane...... First time editing footage...

    Litchi and other Apps for flying DJI mavic?

    I've just started using Autopilot and like it so far. Though it offers a lot more than the DJI app, I find it easier to use and the ability to set up flight plans before you leave the ground is a big plus. Also, though the flight modes have a much greater degree of control and flexibility, the...

    Lovin' that Tripod mode

    So, version two with babbling brook sound track. Very rough.....used my phone, only had a short stretch of brook I could walk back and forth next to, and gusts of wind kept blowing through....but I think it shows the concept well enough.

    Lovin' that Tripod mode

    Thanks Madman. My intent is to make an audio recording of the same stretch of brook (or really, any brook) and use that instead of music. We'll see, though, whether intent translates into action.... If by "awesome flying" you mean my close proximity flying to the branch at about 50sec in, truth...

    Prop failure?

    Two were gone, but found a couple fragments near the crash site. Because it was getting dark I didn't have time or light to look for other fragments. Anyhow, much as I'd like to believe otherwise, I suspect the error was mine. Cheers, Scott

    Prop failure?

    After taking off and climbing 100ft, I then headed NW over a wooded area while continuing to climb to 150ft. At about 700ft, I leveled off and started a slow turn to the West. At that point I was watching the screen and just as I started the turn, I saw the horizon flip, quickly looked up and...
