    Vietnam Drone Rules In Practice

    Thank you, Dale. I'm concerned that it may be more trouble than it's worth. My plan was to just keep the drone packed until I get to Vietnam, but I'm not sure if I will have problems at customs in Singapore as there is no way for them to validate that I am not planning to fly there

    I have found that when shooting surfing, it’s a good idea to take off near water level to better gauge height above water, and keep it in sight of course. It is fairly easy to get too low and then, higher risk of crash. Speaking from experience unfortunately. Sometimes, I have to pop it up...

    I have lost 2 MP2 which fell from the sky in unretrievable scenarios, one on a steep cliff, the other into the ocean. I have been using a couple of rubber bands, like your celery have on them. since then. Yesterday after flying I noted my battery was barely in place, swollen. That one is...
