You don't need to have a permit to fly...but I would recommend AMA membership since it covers liability in case you damage property or a person. We usually park on the corner next to he soccer fields. It lets us fly away from where most people are so were not in the way....plenty of flying...

I left Merck about 2 years ago...they decided the IT departments should be out of Singapore and Prague...so my job was separated. IT sucks because my commute rocked. I worked in Malvern now so my drive is a lot longer. If your operating close to the Merck UG site or the hospital I would alert...

Moyer Airport info: https://www.airnav.com/airport/3PA9 It's a privately owned airport so I wouldn't call them unlessI was doing commercial work in the area (I'm part 107 certified). It's also non-towered meaning any aircraft traffic would be using the CTAF or Unicom channels anyway. But in...

I'm in Telford which isn't far from Lansdale. In telford itself there are a couple schools you can use on weekends if the fields aren't being used North Penn High School has a big field. But the issue in Lansdale that is potentially more helicopter traffic then usual. You have the hospital in...

Anyone up for warminster community park at 11 on Sunday. Weather shows 57 right now.

Yeah we tend to be closer to Philly...but when the weather gets nicer I think a weekend drive up to the pocnons for some flying will be fun idea.

Next Sunday looks like it'll be high 50's if we want to plan something.

I use iOS and for this flight I used DJI Go 4 app. I find with litchi that long Distance missions tend to lose video signal much quicker then with the DJI go 4 app. So for distance flights I use DJI go 4 app. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

I used the video from the Mavic and overlayed the data info I got about the flight from healthy drones. I then used an app called Race Render to overlay the data onto the video. I created the template for RaceRender myself. I like it since it gives the data I want to see.

Had several people watching the Mavic while in flight...we started at a higher elevation so we had good eyes on the direction it was flying. Barely any wind and early morning flight. This is probably the longest I'll ever take her. I could have probably got farther, but didn't want to risk it.

How's noon at the park next to you. I'll bring the wife and kids and dog.

There the park next to you. Let me talk with the wife and kids, since it'll be so nice outside maybe they can come as well and even the dog since there is a dog park there. Or maybe even Warminster again since it's bigger and has a dog park and playground for kids.

Btw, anyone have Monday off? Looks like this whole weekend is going to be nice weather including Monday. I have off for Presidents day...and wasn't really going to do any shopping.

Just put in a NOTAM for us. So no need to contact anyone else. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
