Welcome to my neighborhood

[Rchawks]

Someone flew over head earlier in my neighborhood when I had went outside to do the same. It was a neo and then a mini 3 or 4p showed up right behind it. Then they both dissappeared in high gear. Since I was planning to do some quickshots I decided to wait until later. Refresh helps my peace of mind some.

I have not seen another drone in my area.

I know the feeling because it happened to me once. A bit startling to see at first (because it's rare to me) but then pleasant to see others are flying drones as well. Maybe if you break out your RID detector, you might find a new neighbor.

I've been flying for 4 or 5 years now and never seen anyone else fly with the exception of a friend I sold my mm to. I only flew with him a couple of times before they moved. Although the first time I ever seen someone fly a drone was on the way home from work, it was for real estate. He was parked on the side of the road and I talked to him while the drone flew waypoints. I was impressed, so started with a mm to learn the basics with.

On the way to check the mailbox I hear this very weird noise above me and lo and behold my neighbor (somewhere) was flying today. We had 44 mph gusts and the first thing that came to mind was it's a bit windy for a m3P. I'm most concerned about the take off and landing in wind this strong. It's not I can't handle the task of flying in this kind of wind, it's just I choose not too. One day I'll meet this pilot and shake their hand, LOL!

I was mapping a parcel in autonomous mode and a little FPV drone stopped by. I had a safety vest and hard hat on (per customer’s requirements at the site), so it was obvious that I was officially there. It just watched me for a bit and I gave it a friendly wave, then it waved back and took off to someplace.

Same here, I think my drones can handle the win but for me, it's not fun and I'd rather just wait for a calmer day.

In my area I haven't seen any for the last couple of months. But it's definitely not boring at all—I finally started using Avanquest software, and it's been keeping me busy. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I do, but it turns out there's a lot you can do once you dive in.
