Full text:- Then for the venue itself:- Thats a massive exclusion zone. Just for added funnies - just down the road at Truro aerodrome is a GPS and control signal UAS jamming exercise. ( EGTT/QWELW/IV/BO/W/000/400/5017N00510W031 ) Basically its 2 TFRs - one around Newquay airport, the...

Troubling no. The opposite. Its quite nice to see so many people side with common sense. They guy was an idiot. He's not a journalist - no credentials nor did he have a journalistic visa. He did something pathologically stupid that anyone could see was a really dumb idea. Its likely he knew...

Detecting a drone is incredibly easy. Anyone with a $30 RaPi and a SDR or HackRF can detect both the uplink and downlink transmission many miles away - far beyond the effective controllable range for a drone. With not a lot of extra effort even the telemetry can be snagged and decoded. You...

If this stuff stayed unregulated how long before consumers drones are doing to need ECM or countermeasure suites....

Why would you expect any? He's been an idiot. This has happened before (with Australians) so a few minutes of basic research will have avoided this. If you want to go to a country as a tourist then fine BUT in doing so you make yourself aware of the laws and regulations of that host country...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9608533/Queen-drops-new-aircraft-carrier-bears-name.html There we go. Greedy-Lizzy fancied a boat ride. That was the NOTAM for a large chunk of southern England.

Either a royal flight or Boris to/from there (he was doing some PR appearances in a badly fitting fleece related to the Navy yesterday too). http://www.nats-uk.ead-it.com/public/images/natsuk/aip/AIRAC_2021_05/misc/BRIEFING_SHEET_RESTRICTION_OF_FLYING_REGULATIONS_HELICOPTER_FLIGHT.pdf for full...

They're not rare in the UK. In the last 2 months there've been trials at Sennybridge/SENTA, Spadeadam and Salisbury. Most training exercises now involve an element of local or longer range GPS jamming. As long as you're signed up to CAA Skywise and/or check NOTAMs before flight (which everyone...

YouTube videos are generally one of the worst places anyone can go for useful and accurate information on any product at any point in time.

I suspect there is a new version on the cards. Myself and quite a few other SC owners i know about got a fairly detailed survey off DJI a few months ago on the current smart controller, pros, cons, price points and what we'd think of as useful new features or improvements. It was probably the...

In most countries its a legal obligation to report that collision regardless of the outcome.

It might just be a better message. On the MP/M2 and so on RTH would initialise but the drone never make it back because of the winds so the drone was lost. At least now it tells you of that and wont enter an auto-suicide mode.

As long as the antenna is undamaged you can buy leg replacements for a few dollars on ebay. Mine took about a week to come from China. As above though, just remember the little screw by the light. You may need to file/dremel a bit to get the antenna back in. But its a 5 min swap process.

M2P to Air2S i cant really see it worth it. The increased bit rate would be nice but on the other hand the loss of a variable aperture is a massive loss.

You can set the 5 way button for EV and others in the menu on Go4. I dont think its possible to map the wheel so the joystick is the best you're going to get.
