I don't see any no fly zones near your house, if your house is the dot on the far west side. There are a crap ton of airports and helipads around you though. Personally, I wouldn't be calling all of them just to fly around my house, but that is what you are supposed to do. South of Salem is a...

LTL is your best bet. I have shipped many transmissions for people all over the southeast for less than 100 bucks. They weigh 300-600 lbs each.

Fair warning, some places require a couple hoops you must jump through to get permission. Most are relatively easy to do, but some can be more involved. Ft. Morgan for example requires an application submission, FAA license, Insurance, etc. When I did a shoot there, I gathered several folks...

I don't currently have an editing solution. I just take the raw footage and store it for now. I'm planning a few flights over the new 3 mile bridge project soon also. Maritime park is cool to fly over. I haven't flown much in Milton due to the lack of interesting places. I have done quite a few...

The MPP props are only like 20 bucks on the DJI store! I think you can find them on Amazon for less than that! To me, anyone is going to be hard pressed to beat the DJI props at 5 bucks a piece!

Sounds good! I'm no expert, but i did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. PM me info and I'll get with you. I'm out of town this weekend, but ill be available next week sometime to meet.

No, I do not. I fly mostly where there are overhanging trees near the launchpoint and would like a little better range on video. My issue is that I don't know if any of the antenna mods work with the phone mount I use...

I switched to the platinum props immediately after buying mine. Pitch is lower and sounds less like a swarm of killer bees. I wouldn't use non OEM props, since I have found no evidence of any being better. In fact, all of the props I have seen reviewed have been not as good as the oem ones...

Thunderdrones...do you mod controllers for antennas also? I might be interested in doing one later this year.

Do you have one yet? Do you want to meet up and see it fly before purchasing?

Can you fix sticking keys on a teenager's keyboard too?

You have insurance on your car don't you? If it gets damaged, no matter how, who do you call? The manufacturer? The point here is: There isn't a thing you can do about it outside of trying to sue a multibillion dollar company. Good luck with that Erin Brockovich!

I didn't say I could see it that far! Hell, I have trouble finding it when it returns and hovers 200' above my head! I use the camera view. I know, I know...I'm not supposed to do blah blah blah, but it gets super boring to fly only within LOS.

Marg2 - restrictions on P'Cola Beach are: Gulf Islands National Seashore! Just East of Portafino where the seashore starts to the last parking lot on Ft Pickens rd, just before you enter the seashore are allowed. The SRIA is NOT part of the GINS, so flying is allowed. No laws preventing yet in...

B367 - I fly all over. Mostly wherever my kids are playing, like soccer or baseball parks. I also fly at the Wahoo Stadium some. I go a lot to my family lake house in Alabama and do a lot of chasing tubes and jetskis.
