    Removing Knobs on remote control and fly with your thumb

    I seem to recall on here some time ago, another pilot recommended EXTENDING he knobs by replacing the OEM with some 1" to 1 1/4" machine screws! Their comment was that it gave them better control, so I guess what ever works for you!

    Can use a little help with DJI Fly please

    I did finally get it to download on my Samsung (android) tablet. It seems androids have temperaments or attitudes as opposed to apples? As I mentioned, I believe my problem was in the tablet settings, and giving permission to download from the dji site? I strictly fly over vast wooded areas...

    Flying over wilderness areas

    Yet...... there is a public airstrip within the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex : the Schafer Meadows Airstrip (8U2), located in the Great Bear Wilderness area. It is the last active airstrip in a designated wilderness area in Montana and this is WITHIN a wilderness area......guess if you have...

    Can use a little help with DJI Fly please

    I think the reason I may have been having a problem was I had to change a "permission" in my tablet settings to "allow" my tablet to complete the download from that source.

    Can use a little help with DJI Fly please

    Thanks Meta4, Yes, I visited the DL center, but it appears that one can only download the app to phones, and NOT tablets? Even though I have a rather large cell phone, it is still too small to see much when flying, ergo, the need for the tablet... I tried a 3rd party fly app, but so far, I can't...

    Can use a little help with DJI Fly please

    I think I may have found my answer after doing a different search........I'll see if it works? Well??? I was able to download it to my phone, but not my tablet? This really doesn't do me much good as the phone is too small to see when flying (hence the use of the tablet). Has anyone out there...

    Can use a little help with DJI Fly please

    I have not flown my DJI Mavic Air 2 for some time. I was working through bringing everything ready to fly tomorrow, but when I tapped the DJI Fly icon on my phone, I got a message: "the app has a bug, clear cache to see if it clears"? I cleared the cache, tapped the icon once again, and the DJI...

    FedEx sets new speed record from Korea!

    Great shipping???????? I can't even get them to follow the delivery instructions left on their website so my packages stop getting stolen!!!!! Guess maybe it helps if one lives in a large metropolis?

    Rules for thee....

    And at just 50', some crazed person with a firearm, and NO consideration for the consequences of their actions, could easily hit it, bringing it down right on the whole crowd resulting in perhaps more harm than good by its presence?

    Another drone shot down

    Where I live, there are hunter harassment laws to protect hunters from interference by those that may not like or disagree with their activities. If I was out hunting, and a drone FLEW BY, not to be seen again, I could care less. However, if I'm out hunting and a drone keeps buzzing me and...

    flying near hot air balloon

    I certainly trust what Mr. Moss states. If it were me, I'd make every attempt to contact the balloon pilot to discuss my desires. They just might be over joyed and request some specific "views" that they would like to see, and you could share your snaps/videos with them and both be happy with a...

    Philly Drone Flyer OOB permanently

    I would like to have seen YT receive some form of reprimand as well for permitting this contributor to post illegal activities as well. There are SO MANY on YT performing reprehensible activities, all to acquire attention, that are so disruptive, not to mention, dangerous, to society. Having...

    Drone minimum operating temperatures and ‘feels like’ temperatures

    Where I live, the relative humidity goes down as the temps do. I would think that going from a warmer to colder environment would "freeze" any moisture surrounding the battery. If you are concerned, and I would be, of condensation forming, I think it would occur when you go from sub zero to...

    Drone delivery skeptic? You haven't seen this

    With all the "craziness" that exists in this world, seeing such innovations gives me hope for the survival the human race. Not that this specific development will be the great "savior", but that there are so many folks in the world working on advancements like this. On a side note, the design of...
