    Pile on and Tell Me Why I am Wrong

    I know the feeling, hate it too. Good example of why I say the rules and regulations are meant to prohibit the honest, law-abiding citizens....because nothing is being done to enforce them. That's why your mates are breaking the rules; they know the law-makers don't give a ****. The problem...

    FCC has updated the Covered List to not include Blue sUAS and American made sUAS

    As with most any electronics, whether it's a drone or a computer or a radio, if it doesn't have FCC certification, it is not legal to use or operate in the US.

    FCC has updated the Covered List to not include Blue sUAS and American made sUAS

    These two FAQs together set the stage for bigger discussion (still leaves an open question): Some of the UAS critical components (for instance, batteries) traditionally do not even require FCC equipment authorization. Do they now? No device now requires FCC equipment authorization that did...

    FCC has updated the Covered List to not include Blue sUAS and American made sUAS

    Video editing software capable of 10 bit 4K60: which to purchase?

    The Burden of Batteries

    I can't even begin to count the number of things I need charged but I have a dozen power stations include 2 DJIs, 4 Ankers, 4 Ecoflows, and 1 Jackery and at least as many of those portable power banks. Half a dozen solar panels, too. All this ready to go just in case the lights go out; gotta...
