    New from the Bay Area, Ca

    Hello, I'm a seasoned photographer, but a newbie to drones. I've read the guielines, registered, in the process of testing, and got b4ufly and Aloft. I feel like I have all my ducks in a row, but I'm having such a hard time researching places worth flying and photographing. The Bay Area...

    Flying in LA during Quarantine

    Anyone know if the RC Park in Van Nuys is open right now? It's 'essential' right? :) Any other great places to legally fly right now? I'm also planning to get my Part 107 learning done during quarantine just cause, why not... Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! - Ben

    Much needed app: Where CAN i fly?

    Anyone know of an app that tells you where you CAN fly and to what altitude? B4Ufly has personal airfields listed that dont exist anymore. Two of them I know personally have been landfills for at least 7 years. i feel that map is 50% b.s.

    Newbie needs expert advice

    Folks, Any help answering these questions would be appreciated. 1) Where the hell can I fly? I've flown my new Mavic Pro a total of three times. Each time I'm nervous as hell. Not for the fact that the only thing between me and a $1000 investment is gravity and 98 feet (beginner mode), but...
