A photo of the repaired hinged leg.

Well, I fixed the problem myself. Drilled out the broken hinge point and inserted a pop rivit. Worked like a charm. Sorry to bother you all.

Had a rear leg landing gear break. Looking for either another rear leg landing gear or a full set. No longer available online. Hope someone out there has what I am looking for.

Arc V strobes with Aerial Pixel mounts on a Mavic 2 Pro. Seems to work great for me. Incredible visibility.

I have the following on a sticker on my M2P: FAA registration # cell phone number Reward If Found Think I will follow the advice of many on this forum and place a text file on my sdcard.

I have used these 3 strobes with my DJI Mavic 2 Pro. (1) Red, (1) Green (1) White. I have a color dot identifying each. Each strobe is mounted on a 3-D printed mount using 3M double backed sticky tape. Asking $40 for all three. Also including 3 USB charging cables. I have upgraded to the...

Ipad Mini 5th gen works for me using an M2P. Along with a sun visor.

I fly the M2P and am impressed with it's ability to fly in the wind. I know my limits and try not to fly in wind but have experimented a bit with the wind at the ocean beaches. Fly out against the wind, come back with the wind. Amazing how fast it comes back.

I just had cataract surgery on both eyes in March. Had new lenses inserted. Only need drug store glasses for closeup. Love that I can now see the brighter and more colorful world without glasses. Doesn't affect my flying at all. I can see the drone, can see my Ipad mini as well, without...

A few years ago, when I was new to flying my M1P, I came across a situation at Cannon Beach, OR where a guy flew his M1P or M2P, didn't know the difference back then, out over the ocean with a offshore wind. He did his thing out there and didn't allow enough battery life to get back to his...

After reading all the posts on this topic, I am of the persuasion that drones are next to impossible to see from a manned aircraft. Their footprint is so small as to be invisible. The one thing I think would make them easier to see is strobes, the brighter, the better. I always fly with...

Practically speaking, I live in a small community. Law enforcement here has plenty on their plate, as do most communities. Who will enforce the RID requirement? They certainly will not. Will FAA hire thousands of agents to enforce the new rule? I think not. Granted, there are areas of the...

I have a M2P and I am going to wait until the RID compliance date. If my unit has not been upgraded with firmware by then, I will decide what to do at that time. Until then, it is all conjecture. I was told by DJI some time ago, a firmware update was in the works. Do I believe them? Wait...

Don't know. Different models. Can't say.
