    DJI drones spying USA

    Apologies, referring to comment 30 in this thread, I didn't know it wasn't an actual rule. Not American so I don't pay too much attention to y'alls regulations.

    DJI drones spying USA

    Technically it is possible, data would be stored on the phone and passed over during an update, but what would be the point? Flight records? FAA has them up publicly already, there's no need to spy to do that.

    How damaged is a blade before it’s garbage?

    You should see what I flew on for years. Props are tough as nails, you do lose performance though.

    Protesters down drone with laser pointer??

    Most likely no unless it was one of those PS3 blue lasers

    Even a weak laser could easily burn the photoreceptors

    Police admit that some drone sightings during Gatwick closure crisis may have been of their own surveillance drones

    At this point I'm just thinking it was some anti drone company trying to drum up some business.

    I was arrested for flying a drone *updated with video*

    File a lawsuit for unlawful arrest. It is your right as an American.

    Who here has been to Havana/Cuba with their Mavic?

    When I was there they didn't seem to strict about it, mainly looking for larger drones. I'd say pull the propellers and batteries and stash them separately and see how it goes.

    Update, went to the square where the idiot flew. There's signs everywhere now that specifically show the Phantom he was flying saying NO DRONES. Pictures soon when I get back.

    Who here has been to Havana/Cuba with their Mavic?

    Hmm seems like less people have risked it than I thought. Might have to hold off myself then.

    Who here has been to Havana/Cuba with their Mavic?

    Aside from the idiot that landed himself in jail for flying over the military headquarters, I've heard quite a few people have been completely fine with YouTube videos to prove it. So, who has been through? Anybody actually have their drone taken?

    Storing drones in Havana Airport, any experience?

    Plenty of forum members here have been to Cuba with a mavic, give a search and see what you can find.

    The fake Mavic batteries have arrived.

    I know this, I just really want graphene batteries that won't catch fire.

    Another reason to leave iOS and pick up a wonderphone

    Yes, changing out the battery appears to fix the problem. Also, apparently Apple is now facing a slew of lawsuits in different states.
