    Instagram photo illustrates violation of FAA rules

    I think if you look closer into the rules of NPS and FAA, you find that your not allowed to fly over a NP no mater where you take off from.. The National Park Service requests that pilots maintain a minimum distance of 2,000 feet from the nearest ground mass to minimize wildlife disturbance. Per FAA

    Most of Louisiana Restricted??

    Im sure this is due to the Hurricane, but is it common to restrict flight for 30 days over such a large area? The center of the circle is Baton Rouge LA, its probably 300 Miles wide..This is from the DJI site, is there a better mapping site? This was as far as I could zoom out Picture taken from...

    New update: Forward flight YAW left to right

    When your flying "freestyle" or what I call "sporty", do you notice if when your landing that your altitude reads negative? Im also not a fan of the way it flies nows..I loved doing 180s and not losing much air speed

    Occusync communication

    At 2.4 ghz you can send about 450 mbps up to 600' without line of sight with an omni directional antenna...I have some Ubiquiti antennas that will transfer 450 mbps @ 2.4 ghz PTP up to 16 miles.. I use them at about 10 miles and have seen 600 mbps..those antennas are about the size of 2 packs of...

    Occusync communication

    True, but I talk to people within 100 miles on 2.5 watts and on a few feet of #16 copper wire everyday..My point is the same, radio signals are not limited to only line of sight..Do you what the specs are of the transmitter in the RC?

    Occusync communication

    Thats not necessarily true about radio signals being only line of sight, Im an amateur radio operator and have sent my radio signal all over the world with very little power

    My MA2 got hit by a powerful laser.

    It seems that some people believe that all FAA rules that apply to manned aircraft also apply to drones.. I read the rule for lasers as, The laser would have to pointed at the pilot flying the drone, not the drone..I dont want to take anything away from the recreational drone community, but I...
