I wanted to get a sanity check from the more knowledgeable people here. Was flying around some trees today and had a collision, broke a prop and hit the ground from about 20 feet up. When replacing the propeller, I noticed the top cover was detached at this point. Tried to snap it into place and...

That's kind of what I was thinking. I've sent an email to the address in the NOTAM asking for more information, I'd hate to hear that the SFRA has gotten permanently locked down for drone pilots but it is what it is. I appreciate the thoughts and insights

Do you have any idea why this change would have been made for the SFRA? To be clear, I understand that's the current set of rules for the FRZ (15 mile radius), but the SFRA (outside of 15 mile ring, within 30 mile ring) has always been allowed per the FAA...

Typically anything further East or South is rough, so I tend to go out West. It's prettier out there anyway, with the mountains and...

Hello all. Found this forum the other day when trying to get more information about being in compliance with OOP regulations. Been browsing for a few days, figured I'd say hi. Got my mini 4 pro at the beginning of the year as a way to film some of out Ireland trip before promptly figuring out...
