    Real-world DSAR request in North Alabama - Bankhead Forest

    Glad this worked out. I’m moving down there end of June. Would love to join the team. Think I have experience and connections that could help in future situations.

    This Issue is VERY IMPORTANT to All UAS Pilot in the U.S.A.

    It’s my understanding that the law reads you can fly over state parks but you can’t take off or land from them....

    DJI GO app went black during flight, mavic lost

    In the future people remember your IFR. That RC has valuable data on it. If you lose a video feed... climb to a safe altitude and fly in the direction that lowers your distance from home number.

    Federal Crime to Interfere with Drone & Pilot

    Thought I would make this clear for anyone who has questions about it. A “UAS” is comprised of 3 parts. The aircraft, the controller, and the pilot.

    Note to self - not on a windy day

    Note to self - not on a windy day

    Same. Practically impossible for the aircraft to hold a position in windy conditions. 10mph winds or so. Sport mode is a must to get the craft back. Wouldn’t rely on RTH in windy conditions depending on distance from home.
