    Flew my drone into the woods

    Thinking FPV: After you responded, I thought I would need to go out in the field and test it. For so long I thought the same and then it struck me one day that if I lost my connection and I could NOT get close to my drone in the next 10 minutes because of a canyon or lake between me and the...

    Use avata 2 and neo at same time

    You know I would hope so because those Goggles have a super long range and it would be a shame if you couldn't operate a second drone anywhere nearby. ;)

    Police drones for traffic control

    Another department claiming they are the first and best and most innovative at what they do with police drones. Basically it's just a line they use to get their foot in the door, after all, what population would be against using drones to fight crime instead of risking police officers? And...

    Checking in from Houston, TX!

    Welcome! Awhile back had a chance to visit Houston for the day and ended up flying in both Hermann Park and George Bush park would definitely love to go back there!

    Flew my drone into the woods

    So what happens if you lose signal and your drone hovers and then when it hits lower battery and you haven't yet regained the signal?

    Mavic 4 Pro Leaked Specs, Price and Date

    Here's my prediction for the launch (which is based on both my viewpoint on the DJI ban plus current tariffs). Mavic 4 Pro launches worldwide *except* in the US on day one and here's the pricing with US launch date + US pricing TBD.

    Major update to drone regulations

    Later tonight when I have trouble falling asleep, I'll put this on to get the finer details and the discussion. I mean that in a goo way because UK drone laws don't really affect me but it's interesting to see what changes are in order because the big claim is a few UK drone flyers are ruining...

    Welcome to my neighborhood

    I know the feeling because it happened to me once. A bit startling to see at first (because it's rare to me) but then pleasant to see others are flying drones as well. Maybe if you break out your RID detector, you might find a new neighbor. ;)

    Believe it or not? DJI rep says they pay all tariffs.

    Yeah that right, my understanding is DJI rarely if ever repairs your drone to send the same one back to you. Instead new/refurb replacement is the model. Reports all over the internet have various outcomes and people are reporting these unexpected bills from doing business with DJI are highly...

    Believe it or not? DJI rep says they pay all tariffs.

    Looks like you joined the forum initially to report this issue. I have seen similar concerns reported all over various social media each with a little bit different concern and amount but all having to do with DJI care refresh so I believe it is a credible concern and not a scam. Since DJI...

    Still No DJI Mini 5 Pro? What’s Going On with the Mini Lineup?

    I know it's been a minute but folks may have forgotten about Covid 19 and the dent it put into the development process especially when it comes to parts and chips. Sometimes it takes years for the effect to wear off and it may not be apparent the customers who are focused on drone launches...

    Flying Car

    It's getting hard and hard to tell but I do believe the specs are overblown. At 124mph, you'll die on that machine if there is a mishap.

    Flying Car

    I get it, this is cool and there is limited use for these. Perhaps you can rent these instead of jet skis or snow machines or off road vehicles in the backcountry. However, there's no way this is mainstream transportation. As a motorcycle rider most of my adult life, I can assure you the...

    Mavic 4 Spinning am I missing something?

    Someone will get creative, I'm sure. I see a lot of 360 in the FPV world but it's more of a stunt than something cinematic but I'm sure the ordinary drone world will fine something new. I agree pretty much anything can be done in post but I understand a lot of drone pilots probably don't have...
