Thanks for all the info. We decided to postpone our visit to Turkey until next year.

Thanks Dale, I don't want to be in a Turkish prison either! What I gathered though was you must register if your drone was over 500 grams OR you are doing commercial work. But...only Turkish citizens could apply for registration. Pilots flying a drone less than 500 grams were ok. Haven't...

Planning a trip to Turkiye in October. Everything I've read online via Turkish websites and blogs indicate a drone under 500 grams used for recreational purposes is not required to be registered and can be brought in and flown by non-Turkish citizens. I'm planning on bringing my mini 2 - 249...

I'm just getting my feet wet in thermal. Is the M3T worth 2.5 times that of an M2EA thermal? I already have 2 Mavic 2 Pro drones so I already have batteries, props, etc.

I fly with an iPad or iPhone and no smart controller. Is that what you mean? I know it's rhetorical but why can't the technology determine what the chips inside are doing as far as sending data???

How would the government restrict or ground DJI drones? Can gps satellites restrict what devices read positioning? Is it prudent to purchase a DJI drone now or hold off until this gets settled?

I am shooting a roof/wall Facade (tomorrow), snapping photos every few seconds while tracing the perimeter of a building. Any suggestions for automating this with preferably dronedeploy. Thanks!

That's partially true. If the drone under 250 grams has a camera, you must register yourself. See this link: https://www.dronelicense.eu/pages/drone-laws-italy#:~:text=Before%20you%20fly%20a%20drone,you%20will%20be%20flying%20first.

I think I figured it out. Apparently the DJI Go4 app was not starting at the beginning screen so it wasn't checking controller firmware level. Tapping the DJI hot spot in the upper left corner put me to the starting screen and it noticed the firmware needed to be updated.

Hi all, I have 2 Mavic 2 pro drones. One of them I have already updated, it upgraded a/c and batteries without a problem. Trying to update the second, when connected to my ipad and checking for updates, it indicated that it was up to date. I then downloaded Assistant 2, did the aircraft...

I'm getting into mapping and phitogrammetry but wanted to take some online courses. Does anybody have recommendations? Drone launch, pilot institute, drone u, anything else? I also heard Richard Carpentier at AZ drones was good. Thank for the help! Craig

I am interested. I sent you a private message with questions.

Is it easy to superimpose over what's produced from dronedeploy, etc? I'm still not clear. Thanks.

Does dronedeploy or pix4d produce some kind of a survey map with property lines?

I'm looking for pointers to information on how to do mapping. Maybe even more basic, 1. what does mapping produce? Does it produce a survey? How are property lines determined? I'd like to map out my property with my Mavic 2 Pro to see if I want to buy a Mavic 3E to get into mapping. I'm...
