    Any possibility the Mini 3 will be goggles compatible?

    Not sure if this will help,but I saw a video showing FPV on the Mini 2/Mini 3 Pro with the white Vers.1 goggles,a Firestick,USB powerbank,and casting from the phone/tablet to the goggles through the Firestick.A bit of latency,but FPV none the less....

    Mavic pro 2 Charging

    I see no way to modify the minimum voltage.For that reason I use ONLY the charge and storage modes. I,too,never take a lipo to empty as I have read too many people say don't do it. Storage mode takes it to where I want it,and I never operate the charger unattended.

    Coming from the land of RC Planes, I was told to NEVER discharge to 0% as irreparable damage will occur....(?)

    Master Airscrew Issue Resolved (for me)

    I have returned my 3 sets MAS props after trying on 2 separate occasions to get a response via email.absolutely NO RESPONSE.Terrible service.Interesting to see if/what their response will be once they receive my 3 sets. I sent the package registered from Canada with a postage cost of $19.00...

    Master Airscrew props and low temperature vibration

    After replacing the MAS props with OEM props,the extreme vibration I was also experiencing disappeared. I emailed MAS Airscrew twice with no reply,and have now shipped the 3 sets I bought back to them.It will be really interested to see if/how they address this issue.

    British Columbia Man fined for hunting with drone.

    Animals can also be driven towards slaughter with rc aircraft.Gives the animal a real chance to survive...right? Hunter or opportunistic killing? I've been approached lots of times when gathering video of wildlife with "requests".NOT A CHANCE. My opinion.

    Advantages of a tablet?

    I find a tablet allows me to relax my arms,neck and shoulders.With the tablet I can enjoy longer flights with straight arms.

    A Near Death Experience

    I have experienced this with a lot of my aircraft.Nasty when those trees follow you.I had a powerline attack my Mavic Pro2.Evil.

    FAA FINES PHILADELPHIA DRONE PILOT

    Looks like a lot of operators saw this reaction to not only infractions,but the posting of such.At test case...perhaps. A warning...for sure. Wonder how many more posts on social media we will see showing disregard for laws/rules placed upon our hobby...and the reaction from the public on their...

    Charging Batteries

    I am looking to use an aftermarket charger like this: I really dislike waiting long periods to charge my batteries with the stock charger. Has anyone noticed battery failures with these non-oem types of chargers?

    Mini2 or used Mavic Pro

    Owning both the Mavic Mini and the Mavic Pro2,I see the best deal for $500 CAD is the slightly used.Pro. Buddy wants into the hobby for use on his land,and the rebel isn't concerned with licensing as his parcel of land is large.Very large.
