    Is it possible to fly from Titlow with the Narrows Airport so close by? I'm interested in flying from there later this year.

    Not yet. I need to look into that still. Will call about it this week sometime. What type of insurance is it? did you go through a local agent?

    Well, had the drone up in the back yard for a bit ... until the first battery went low and my shaved head got cold!!! Fun. Charged back up and off to a bigger pasture ... with a beanie for the head this time!!!! :) Fun ...

    Ya, I will be in my back yard for a bit if the weather cooperates, then maybe over at Adelaide Elementary's field or Lakota's. Probably Adelaide since it's more hidden and I can be alone. Got all my settings set (for now). Updated firmware to 1.04.0000. Hovered it in the kitchen for a few...

    Low noise Props - excessive vibration?

    I'm by far not an expert ... I'm a complete novice actually and haven't even received my MP yet (hopefully it arrives tomorrow; tracking says expected delivery on the 5th, but it arrived in my area about 15 miles from home today). Anyway, I have been reading manuals and everything from DJI...

    Low noise Props - excessive vibration?

    Heck with it ... ordered a set of 8330 and 8331 so I have extras and then more extras. Only $20 anyway for the 8331's right!!!!!

    Low noise Props - excessive vibration?

I'm debating on getting them from the DJI site, but I keep reading about possible issues and not...
