Extract from CASA media release 11 May 2018: AUSTRALIAN 11.5 P27 DRONE REGISTRATION ON REGULATION WISH LIST The potential for recreational drone users to face further regulations has increased after a report by the nation's civil aviation watchdog backed mandatory registration for gadgets...

Have seen a Phantom do exactly the same thing after losing a prop. I too suspect that your missing prop was not locked in and came off during the ascent resulting in the Mavic flipping and returning to Earth.

2008 BMW R1200RTSE. I said this one would be a ten year bike so I'm starting to think of its replacement. Could be the new model RT or the new GS

Is there any diopter adjustment in the BT-300? I wear prescription reading glasses and am worried that I won't be able to view the display clearly.

You can set gimbal preferences in the App to allow you to move the gimbal above horizontal (i think it's up to 30°).

I've had a few birds check out the Mavic in flight but none have had a good at it. Watch out for dogs being walked - I had a couple of heelers come running out of nowhere when I was hovering about 1.5 - 2m off the the ground and had I not seen them in time and climbed rapidly they would have...
