No Jumping to conclusions. Read my earlier post and you'll see I already made suggestions in that regard, to which the OP already responded that he had already looked into it. As far as I am aware, the Agcat has been dropped in favor of the more efficient Air Tractor series for every operation...

Well, you've done your part in gathering information. You should call your nearest FAA Field office and report it. It's very odd for him to be flying such aircraft and in such manner, being so far from any workable area (those things aren't cheap to operate either). The aircraft owner may also...

Probably because of the forthcoming Part 108?

That is a photo of an AgCat agricultural aircraft. I don't want to make assumptions, so I'll point out that the person flying it is most likely a commercially rated pilot and is in the performance of such operations that ARE allowed by the FAA, whether it be application of materials to crops or...

You might try putting them through a couple of charge/discharge cycles (better if done with a device specifically for the task). It may get better, but the internal chemistry won't ever get back to new, or like new condition. That just the nature of lithium batteries. If planning to use your...

We don't need drone coverage, we need to bring back public hangings for these type crimes.

I'd be satisfied with just proper punctuation from the OP. Even a quick spell check would be nice.

At what point does it stop being "recreational"? Kinda like self-driving cars...no thanks, I'll do the driving/flying myself. Now, if talking non-recreational, then whatever makes the job easier! ;)

Just to reiterate, YOU should first find out about the specific airspace where the alleged violation occurred. If it was class G (most likely) then there was NO violation and the FAA won't bother to even leave the office. In my area, there are numerous agricultural aircraft, along with myself...

I stopped in Fairbanks one time several years ago, on my way to Deadhorse. (ERA Helicopters) My favorite is probably Denali with Juneau a close 2nd. In June and July of course...my blood is too thin for your winters! :)

It gave the option of an executable or zip file. I chose the exe and it installed just fine (windows 10). Didn't accept the code first try, but worked on second attempt (new code after each attempt). Might try clearing your cache and see if it makes a difference. ETA: Double check your user...

As long as the individual cells are available, packs can be rebuilt. Of course, those are from China too, but not banned. 😁

All this hindsight makes one wonder what we'll be saying about DJI in 20 years. 🤔
