    Modded the Mavic 3's Remote with Alientech's Amplified Duo Antenna, compared range with unmodded remote w/ Yagi Antennas.

    Law Officer Claims My TRUST DOCUMENT Fake?

    Forgive me if I missed it somewhere in the thread, but the TYPE of LAW OFFICER is not mentioned? I caution that in National Parks the officers are likely FEDERAL and any offense (or subsequent complications) may put the drone user in violation of federal laws and entangled in the Federal COURT...

    Helicopter flying towards drone. Tips?

    What are the consequences of being involved in a helicopter collision? National news is best case- loss of life not improbable. Cost of my drone? pffft. Since I'm not flying over people -I say CSC or rapid descent to ground level asap.

    Feeling Like A Criminal when flying...

    I fly 100% legal- but fly like I used to smoke weed as a paranoid kid. Plan for a quiet time during the week, walk in casual with the drone hidden, be discreet and have a good look around before lighting up, make it a quick blast, pack up quick and be gone before the cops show up. Keeping a...

    Yes, this is very long thread with information "sprinkled" in. And, yes I very much appreciate Namirda's help as I hope was clear from my posts. You know what would reduce this thread to a few posts- DOCUMENTATION. 44 pages to find out that "WP actions are ignored in curved mode"? Really...

    ..oh wait, one LAST question. I've flown my first two amazing flights now with video I can't stop reviewing. The waypoint interpolation and moving from focus POI to fixed gimble tilt angles seems to be working great and video is great BUT, no pictures? I've got the "Photo Capture Interval"...

    Hi Namirda, I finally tried on another machine and can confirm the altitude problem was with Google Earth Pro. I had uninstalled GEP on my machine but noticed some points were retained when reinstalled. There is obviously an undeleted configuration file with a parameter permanently breaking...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    OK, I found it in VLM and it was set correctly. I forgot about it and was looking at web mission planner. I think the problem is with Google Earth Pro. I've uninstalled it but I notice upon reinstall that old points are retained so I think there is a config file I need to delete before...

    Hi Namirda, I think I've missed something. I can't find home point altitude reference or how to set it to WP1. I see in the green text that it is set to WP1 but I'm not finding the field. Thanks and sorry for the noob questions.

    Hi Namirda, Thanks for the quick reply. I think I've gone through all those carefully but will confirm 100% and update soon.

    Help! Newbie elevation problems with VLM and Earth Pro. Hi, I'm trying to get VLM to launch Google Earth Pro with correct EYE ALTITUDE. I've played with the buttons but no matter what the eye altitude is way to high (like 5000 feet above ground level). If I change vertical exaggeration to 1.0...
