Are you selling this drone and the accessories for $26? I can't be reading this correctly.

You handled it very well. I agree with most of the other responses. I would point out that the police officer could only enforce state law, so it is odd what they were asking you about and why. In other words, so long as you did not violate some state law, there isn't anything the police officer...

Does a Mini have sound? If not, how do you get the sound?

Thomas Jefferson once said: We don't have a government elected by the majority, we have a government elected by the majority that participate." About 25% of all eligible voters vote in any given election. More than half of the eligible voters in the United States are not even registered to vote...

I have flown my MA2 over several forms of water: rivers, lakes, and the ocean. I find it doesn't have trouble flying over anything with the exception of flying very low over perfectly still water. I come across this problem trying to take shots over beaver ponds around my house. It doesn't fly...

No replacement, but I will consider changing them anyway to see if the issue goes away.

Sure, but in my case the warning didn't appear until nearly ten minutes into the flight. In the next two flights, it appeared shortly after takeoff.

I was flying yesterday, and after about ten minutes a warning appeared on the screen stating "motor warning - check propellers; fly with caution." I promptly brought down, landed, and looked it over. Nothing is wrong. The propellers are all installed correctly and on the correct motors. The...

What did you do to capture the sound?

I have an MA2 that is three months old. No range issues. Few out a couple miles last week. The limitation was battery life. FYI

I just have to point out as a litigator that while intent at flight matters under the written law, I would never recommend relying on that as an excuse to start selling drone video after the fact. More than once can easily get you prosecuted. I know a lot of prosecutors; state and federal, and I...

It sounds like your card may have a defect. If formatting using the drone system can't fix it, it probably is the card itself. I had to dump one recently. It worked most of the time, but then some video would not work properly outside of the drone. No amount of formatting would solve the...

I bought my MA2 just a couple months ago and it came with three batteries. Five would be better. I'm curious what the price is with the newer set. It has more and better stuff now.

I can't' speak to any regulatory agency enforcing laws based on You Tube videos. I would note there are a LOT of videos on You Tube that show obviously illegal flights. Drone licenses and waivers for every licensed pilot are available online for view. It can be difficult to line up the video...

I am an attorney. I am licensed to practice law in Oregon, Washington, and U.S Courts. I do not practice law in Louisiana, nor do I have a clue what implications your state law may have on the answer to this question. What I can say, without reservation, is that you must have a commercial...
