    Battery charging volts/wattage

    Hello, I'm wanting to fly my drone while 4WD then charge it with the power point included in my car. It gives 120 volts I think. Would that destroy my battery? Thanks in advance

    Drone crashed in the Hudson River after battery died

    I flew my drone approximately 21,000 feet across the Hudson and received a warning that I needed to return home immediately so as to have enough battery life to make it back.

Particularly if it has been a couple of weeks since the battery was last used. Is this good...

    Flight path simulator.

    Does software exist which can be used to simulate the flight path of a drone under certain conditions, ie wind interference, remaining battery charge, nav point, etc?

    If not DJI then I hope someone else is already working on adapters for using Mavic's chargers (car charger in particular) to charge Spark's batteries. Spark's and Mavic's batteries have same voltage 11.4v. Someone should make a lighter version of the Spark's battery (maybe modify the existing...
