    Anyone selling a Mini 3 combo?

    That Costco bundle lacks the nice controller. If you already have an RC Pro, or like the standard controller, it's a decent way to go.

    Rockland County, NY, Expert Advice Requested

    Yes, I do occasionally to clear my mind; nothing special, just photos. Imminently moving to AZ for retirement; house is in contract to close July 15th. My contacts in town were friends for decades; long before being town attorney and now Clarkstown Justice (which should clarify who our friend...

    Rockland County, NY, Expert Advice Requested

    I go by airspace clearance and looking for signage (which is not always present when it should be). Any park in Rockland has no drone signs. Harriman does not allow drones either but has no signage (that I've seen) and I've flown as Silver Mine Lake, over the lake without issue before I learned...

    Rockland County, NY, Expert Advice Requested

    I rarely fly my Skydio. Mostly on my street (double cul-de-sac), on a trail and through historical gold mine works in Colorado and through some wooded areas (also in Coloroado). Parks in Rockland are off limits so I can't enjoy it there. My Skydio is always much lower than any other drone...

    BEWARE Standard M3 Amazon buyers

    Thank you, interesting read. What doesn't affect us and is Panasonic policy: Federal funds will not be allowed to be used on DJI product. Extending this to any government agency seems to make sense; DJI can ground drones at will if the countries came to conflict The assertions that DJI product...

    DJI Air 2s Filters: Polar Pro vs Freewell

    Looks very clean, colors are vivid, no concerns about mounting & framing large format prints, image is durable (glass hitting the floor is not - of course). There are many options for digital printing that vary from material printed on, texture and likely more I've not seen yet - canvas is an...

    DJI Air 2s Filters: Polar Pro vs Freewell

    No, not video. I used the filter to stop down the light so the image would not be overexposed; would likely have been fine with stock glass or a CPL - the VND conviently let's me limit light without swapping filters in the field. The image is ISO 100, 1/250th, f2.8 (no choice of f-stop in the...

    Air 2s Some pano photos from My Air 2S using a Polar Pro VND Filter near Tilcon Quarry on the border of New City and Haverstraw, NY

    Thanks - was a nice day for a photo. That's about half a granite mountain removed for gravel with a portion of an apple orchard adjacent; an industrial/suburban mash up.

    DJI Air 2s Filters: Polar Pro vs Freewell

    I bought the Polar Pro as I wanted the advantages the VND provide; without having a variable aperture - it's very easy to just rotate the filer to stop down the light coming into the camera. I valued that more that the ND/64PL and the two high stop 1000 and 2000 filters (that can both be added...

    Air 2s Some pano photos from My Air 2S using a Polar Pro VND Filter near Tilcon Quarry on the border of New City and Haverstraw, NY

    One of three pano photos from My Air 2S using a Polar Pro VND Filter near Tilcon Quarry on the border of New City and Haverstraw, NY. (I could not directly upload due to size - one is a 360 - can be seen on Air 2/2S Owners group on that FB.

    Pics of the "leaked mavic 3" and a proposed "leaked mini 3" look virtually identical.

    From Jasper Ellens' Facebook Group Page: Enjoy. How could you not?

    Buying refurbished drone, can I delay Care Refresh?

    You'll be fine. I buy mine before activation and enter the serial number of the aircraft & gimbal. As there's now flyaway insurance, you select the controller to activate flyaway insurance with once you're drone is activated and ready for flight; if you have a smart controller, you have a...

    Buying refurbished drone, can I delay Care Refresh?

    As long as it's not been flow, you buy DJI Care prior to it's first flight.
