    Hello all from Marina Del Rey, CA

    I’m in the Marina del Rey area for work. I use a Phantom 4 and Phantom 4 Pro, Mavic Air, Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual, Mavic Mini, and Ryze Tello

    Pay Again To Register New Drone?

    Wow! I thought you had to have each drone registered with a different FAA number just like if you registered different automobiles with the DMV! We have two Mavic 2 Enterprise Duals registered separately with my fire department. You’re saying that I just needed to register once and it covers...

    Mini Mavic blow out over the ocean in Delaware, a mile out.

    Wow! I must be too much of a “boy scout”! I never intentionally fly over 400ft AGL. It’s kinda boring to me because the view from that altitude of 400ft is usually a lot less detailed. On the issue of an entity “taking over” the controls of your UAS, I’ve been advised that it doesn’t happen. It...

    Mavic Mini controller connected w/iPad Mini

    Scratch that. I’m unable to use the iPhone X with my Otterbox case because the phone’s charging port is blocked by the controller as well as the rubber Otterbox port cover

    Mavic Mini controller connected w/iPad Mini

    I have an Otterbox case for my iPhone X and always removed the case to use with my controller because I didn’t think it would fit. I just tried it with the Otterbox case and it isn’t a very snug fit, but I can make it work if I need to.

    LAANC Approval warning

    I’ve been flying my MM on vacation in Maui with relatively no issues except the LAANC approval giving me a warning about not having FAA registration. Shouldn’t that be sidestepped if I have already input that my aircraft is under weight?

    Mavic Mini controller connected w/iPad Mini

    Am I missing something, or is it impossible to connect my iPad mini to the Mavic Mini controller without a third party cable? It doesn’t seem like the cables provided are long enough. I’m trying to use the same MavMount that I use for my Mavic Air. The iPad mini has a lightning connection

    DJI delivery times

    I ordered the Fly More Combo 10/31 and it still has not been shipped! I wanted it before my trip to Maui on 12/9 but I’m getting worried now. I’m going to wait two more days then cancel and purchase locally if I don’t hear anything.

    Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual

    Thank you for your input! Los Angeles County Fire Dept. covers an area of over 4,000 square miles with much of it wildland brush areas. One of the primary uses of our M2ED’s will be for wildland fire reconnaissance since our fire season is quickly approaching. Other uses will be mapping for...

    Recommendations for Search and Rescue drone?

    I’m loving this Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual so far. Just took it on a test flight two days ago. L.A. County Fire Dept.

    Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual

    I understand that this forum is primarily for Mavic 2 Pro users, but are there any users that have the Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual system that utilizes the thermal imaging camera, lighting and speaker attachments? We just took ownership of two for my fire department and would love to hear feedback...

    I have a mavic enterprise and dji goggle question.

    How do you connect and link your Mavic Air with the RE goggles?

    Insurance? Needed it not?

    I’ve spoken with two State Farm agencies here in the L.A. CA area and neither of them have heard of this $60/yr Personal Property policy. Could this policy not be valid in the state of California?
