AAARRRGGHHHH!!! How could I forget the 2nd press?!?!? No wonder "press and hold" didn't work. I wasn't doing the first short press... I didn't see that in the TINY print manual, so I have downloaded the PDF and will refer to that version in the future. Maybe get new glasses? ;-) Maybe...

I also have not used my Mavic Pro for several years. Controller battery was at 0%. Drone battery had two solid lights. I charged up the batteries on the controller and the drone battery, and went about getting in position to fly. HOWEVER: I could not get the controller or the drone to turn on...

Doesn't matter whether I'm color blind or not. Look closely at what I wrote: "If traffic lights were not three separate lenses, instead being only one lens,..". In a previous job, I tested railroad engineers and conductors for whether or not they could tell the difference between red, yellow and...

Here's a thought: If traffic lights were not three separate lenses, instead being only one lens, is it safe for someone to drive through an intersection not knowing if cross traffic is stopped? What if they ran into you? Would you be comfortable if you were on a passenger train where the...

"Just once"? -Was that because you lost the hand you shook with? ;-)

If corporations paid taxes like we do, there would be plenty of money to fix our infrastructure. If everyone were taxed on all earnings instead of just "earned income", there would be even more money. OMG! Did you say "godless commies"? Are we going back to the stupid 50's mentality...

The way I understand it is that WE pay any tariffs imposed; NOT the foreign government/business. The tariff money goes into our own government's coffers. Unless the companies take less profit by lowering prices on their product, they don't lose anything. We do.

Nice idea, but too much bouncing around. Made me dizzy trying to follow it. Thanks, though.

Ummm... How do I shoot at birds without looking up? ;-)

Whew! I was worried! I was afraid that if I traveled that far, "takeoff" would have it corkscrew into the ground, since "up" would be "down" halfway around the world! o_O For folks that think I'm being an AH, that was a joke. I am STILL a newbie, after a year of flying only occasionally, and...

I've noticed that the pitch is much less irritating (not a swarm of angry bees) and they're a little quieter on a Radio Shack sound meter (a few db). Haven't encountered any issues using them.

I've had good luck with Avidemux. Simple; few options, but easy to use.

This is a little late, but I wanted to say a big "Thank You" to all who helped me figure this out. I got an Ipad Mini 4, and it works perfectly with the stock grips. Got a few additional things after watching assorted videos, but this Newbie is having a blast. So... Thanks! and Happy Flying!

Thank you for that info! I just checked it out, and it gets great reviews. Sounds like the way to go. Thanks, again!

Cool! Thanks!
