I am not sure it would matter if you insured more than one drone in terms of premium amount. There is a minimum premium charge for coverage of items up to a certain aggregate threshold. My premium didn't change when I added my second drone to the policy and then there was only a slight increase...

I stopped buying Care Refresh in favor of the State Farm policy with the release of the original Mavic Air. I think I am paying something like $85 per year to cover my Mini 3 Pro, Air 2s and Avata. The only caveat is that the coverage will not apply for the commercial use of the drones...

This set up was in my early fleet and, to be honest, with all of this reminiscing, I am thinking I might get another Tello just for the fun of it. I shot this honeymoon video using my Tello.

To be clear: you can control the Tello, but you can also get into the programming aspect of it. Just wanted to make sure my post about the Tello wasn't confusing.

DJI/Ryze Tello ($99 or $150USD for "FlyMore"). GameSir also makes a bluetooth controller for about $40 that you can get for a full controller experience. These are suitable for use inside or outside in a small yard. Take a look at YouTube videos. The props also cannot do too much damage to...

Welcome, also from Bonita Springs (Highland Woods).

I recently spent some time shopping for and purchasing an Air 2S Fly More via FB Marketplace. In the SW Florida area, you should expect around $900 for that setup in Like New condition.

I cannot seem to find an answer to this question. I would like to record a video of a flight using waypoints with my Air 2 or Mini 3 Pro BUT NOT a Hyperlapse. Just a straight up video. Is this possible? Thanks.

Your LEO analysis seems flawed. They need a warrant because Law Enforcement is a "state actor" and, therefore, 4th amendment rights are triggered. You are a private citizen and your conduct is not subject to constitutional scrutiny here (IMHO). A Google search should inform you about the...

I recently picked up an Avata (and love it!!). It appears that you can stream content via DLNA to the goggles -- although I haven't gotten it to work yet as I am an iPhone user. Does anyone know if there is any way to live stream the display from the DJI RC to a DLNA device (specifically the...

$850 plus shipping from SW Florida. Barely used. Never crashed. Like New.

Weeeeeell. Not really. It's a LOT easier to momentarily move your eyes back and forth between your phone screen and VLOS than it is to don and doff goggles. When piloting a UAS using a controller with a screen or phone as display, I do NOT believe that the requirement for a solo operator is to...

I am curious: since DJI refuses to bring back phone-only control or Smart Capture, what is the point of the drone only case? It made sense for the original Air and I use it all of the time (which is why I'll never get rid of mine. I just don't get the point of a case for just the drone if you...

I love the idea of private, market driven self-regulation. Manufacturers have an incentive to make sure that government doesn't take over and regulate them out of a product to sell. I love the idea of public/private partnership to come up with reasonable solutions to public concerns. Everyone...

I am wondering if anyone has tried and been able to pair their Mavic Air 2 with the new DJI RC (bundled with Mini 3 Pro)?
