    Helipad on car hood?

    Greetings from upstate NY

    It sounds like what you intend to do is not for strictly recreation. If that is the case, to stay legal with the FAA you will need to pass the test to become part 107 certified.

    Which capacity of IPad mini?

    I use an Ipad mini 5 with my MA2 and have had zero problems. It is the cheapest model I could get. I usually set my phone up as a hotspot when I fly, especially if I am near a geozone that I will need to unlock. Mini 5 is getting really much cheaper now that the 6 has been released. If you...
