I second that!

Just as rule of caution. I gotta agree with gnirts. It would help, calm down some of the tough guy talk here if we could see any footage you have. I use a Mavic Air, and if I’m below 100’agl, it’s quite loud. You know I’m in your area.

Just some preflight steps I always take. 1. check b4ufly 2. unlock my mavic air from the dji site 3. get flight clearance with kittyhawk app. (Or whichever app you use. Depending on the area of flight you may need at least 48 hours advance on your request if it's in restricted airspace.) 4...

I have a little Tello drone and man the humming birds get really close to it!

Thanks for clarifying that!

I have my part 107, and I'm using the kittyhawk app. I also live near an airport KPDX. I've use the app to get clearance several times. It's class C airspace here, and I'm down field from runway 6. I've gotten clearance up to 200 AGL. I had trouble with the app a few times, and had to contact...

Beautiful pans Peter! How long ago did you shoot this video? It looks like it's chilly weather there?

Hello this seem as good a thread as any to chime in on this subject. I’ve been trying to contact KittyHawk to see about pricing for a solo pilot enterprise account, wondering if they are having staffing issues because of the virus? The thing I’d like to know is how much is the cost of an...

Hi guys! I live in Northeast Portland’s Woodlawn neighborhood under class C air space. I’m always looking to get a little bit out of town and get on up! Also just got passed my part 107 exam with the FAA, if you’re interested I can help with study advice. Cheers & Airships Up!

Thanks Thomas! I’ve been involve some here in the Northwest with AUVSI’s Cascade chapter I helped with the design, engineering and assembly of the Carangi Airship a few years ago. I believe the company has foiled up, but they were working on a lighter than air platform. I bet it’s nice living...

Where are you located in PA? I travel back there often to see my family there in Chambersburg.

Hello my fellow remote pilots! I just passed my Part 107 exam two weeks ago, got my temporary license. I’m I have 53 successful flights under my belt, and just under 8 hours of flight time. I’d like to find an entry level position in the Portland Oregon area if possible. I have military...
