Interesting- and no I never did in the end, as was just worried that the tower would affect signal somehow, or worse, I'd crash into it

i wonder if she means the actual drone (less the batteries) needs to be checked into baggage? Maybe they are worried that if you have access to both the drone and the batteries in the cabin, you could start it up? Anyway, their guidance is just not very clear, and like you say, contradicts...

I am wondering is she means the drone (less the batteries) needs to go in hold?

But the drone itself must go in the hold, and cannot be brought on board in hand luggage - atleast by my airline Screen Shot 2018-07-13 At 21.34.20 by Mr Banks posted Jul 13, 2018 at 9:49 PM

I was told today by my airline that the drone must be checked Screen Shot 2018-07-13 At 21.34.20 by Mr Banks posted Jul 13, 2018 at 9:49 PM

Am I correct in understanding that you have to check your drone in your suitcase - but carry the actual batteries with you in your hand luggage. ? If thats correct, what about the controller - where does that go ?

Thats interesting you say that, as it popped up three times, and that might have been after I replaced each brand new battery for the first time, that came with my fly more combo So it could be that I suppose. But i havent seen the message since.

Will do. And yes I do worry about irresponsible drivers on road of course. And if someone was going 40mph on a 30pm road, then that would be illegal, and they would be at fault. However I don't believe these planes were doing anything wrong or flying illegally, unless they are supposed to...

I guess so. - if I could see them approaching that is. But these we didn't see coming, they were literally on top of us. Admittedly we were sat outside, and not looking in air, so probably easy to not spot approaching. And if I had been flying MA I would have been looking in air and more...

I was sat out at a location this weekend, and two very lew flowing motorised light aircraft (look liked gliders but had engines) flew over. Definiteley appeared to be lower than 400feet. Immediateley my wife asked me what would happen If I had been flying my Mavic Air, which I reckon could...

If i use Lichi, will that mean my DJI Care Refresh is void should anything happen?

Today I turned on my MA, put it on a hard floor (a concrete path), but forgot to turn out the landing legs. So unbeknown to me the camera was facing down, touching the path, and the gimbal was being restricted from moving. I had a RED Gimbal Overload Message appear on the screen. I looked...
