    Plenty of room to fly between Boca Raton and West Palm. We even have an AMA Airfield in west Delray. I even like to fly out of my yard in W. Boca.

    Also, remember to use the return to home button if you lose sight of the drone or yours become confused. It’s a life saver, and don’t forget to pre set your return altitude for return to home and understand how the drone reacts under different return to home scenarios (requested or drone...

    You’ll want to be using a polarizing filter, not a neutral density filter. ND filters are designed to reduce light to the sensor and polarizing filters are designed to reduce glare. Do a little research on the web and you will get a little more understanding of the process involved.

    Just head south toward Boca and pick some empty field off 441. I just started flying in that area and it looks like the are lots of places to fly out west. There is also an AMA field off West Atlantic at 441. Mostly fixed wing guys but interesting to watch, especially the jets.
