Red tail hawk. He will take a drone down if he thinks its dinner. Zoom in on his tail.

Yes.

Thank you my friend. Next time I can fly and take pictures I will try this. Thanks again.

There's always one that wants to start something. Your post was fine and we all knew exactly what you meant. Well almost all except that one that has to be negative and try to start an argument. Your fine bud. Enjoy the day and no apology needed. From a 73 year old new drone flyer. And I love it...

Same problem! I don't want to pull the sd card. If I pull it I just put in in my tablet. I want to find a way to use the quick transfer if I can. It worked once flawlessly now it won't work. That's the problem. I was hoping someone knew the problem.

The prompt appears but will not connect. I've done it 20 times I bet. And it keeps telling me to restart the drone and try again. So I pull the sd card which is a hard thing to do each time and reinstall it to my phone. All android S8. Then email photos to my android tablet. To slow and time...

The manual says you don't need to connect the RC. Just turn phone wifi on and blue tooth on. And the mini 2 will connect through its built in bluetooth. I'm still pulling the sd card to get the pictures. But want to use the quick transfer built into the mini 2.

So there is no place to practice flying a drone in or near Yuma?

We have been traveling for four years now. And every year is a new adventure. We have found Moab Utah as our favorite place to visit.

Nice photo. It's been kind of cold in Yuma this year. For us anyway, LOL. Being in Yuma foothills the air base keeps me grounded. But soon I'll head north and get some airtime and new pictures below Quartsite and some mountains in the desert. Happy and safe travels.

He must be in Canada?

If we have a world war we are all in trouble. Yes I'm free but I have work to do to keep her running and looking good. Which keeps me busy when I need something to do. We are in Yuma now and this year it's cold! We've came here for the last 4 winters and not explored much. This year we bought a...

You must be thinking of the movie BreakingBad? Hahahaha Nothing like that. When I retired I needed to do something. I bought a motorcycle and found at my age it was fun but I still had rent motel rooms. So we traded in the bike and our van for a down payment on a used motorhome. Gave up the...

Retirement is a good thing if you don't set idle and do nothing. We have drove across America once. Even stayed a week on the gulf of Mexico beach in Freemont Texas. I could go on forever on what we have seen and I don't plan on stopping for 6 more years. Actually it's pretty cheap, I've saved...

Where to fly near Yuma? I'm in the Fortuna Foothills area. I do not want to upset the airforce and I think I'm in their space here. So only flying in the yard and not going very high under 15 feet. 73 years old and want to learn more before I do some real flying. Would like to go somewhere where...
