    Rc pro screen scratches

    Don't expect anything but acrylic or mineral glass on this kind of gear. Simple solution: Polywatch is what I use for removing scratches from acrylic watch crystals. It'll do the same job on the controller. https://www.polywatch.de/en/

    2 Pro Tuggerah Lake

    Hi all, here's a quick'n'dirty over Tuggerah Lake on the Central Coast of NSW in Australia. I didn't really have anything to work with and there was only about 20 minutes of sunlight left, but I gave it my best shot anyway. :) Tuggerah Lake

    Cockatoos adopted my Mavic 2 Pro

    Shooting a property yesterday, a flock of Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoos swarmed my drone before I could blink. After a second or two I realised there was no danger (it was obvious they weren't going to touch it), so I kept shooting and enjoyed the ride. I ended up using the footage in the shoot...

    You can't fly your drone here
