it's funny I was just thinking earlier today how cool that would be

it's like someone was saying (MapMaker I think) the FAA really has no way to enforce people making money using their drones. The problem is for example in my case I mainly want to use it for real estate photography. According to one of the realtors I've been talking with the FAA issued a...

what I did is put all my contact info in the comments section and that I was petitioning for exemption, then put all my contact info in again in the fields below the comment section. Anything government-related is always such a confusing mess, it's never just straightforward. It's been 3 weeks...

The Bestem ones are the best choice. I had some of the Summitlink guards and they were just way too heavy. The Bestem guards are about half the weight and feel just as sturdy. I did have to cut the foam in my case to get the mounts to fit though.

is there any way to check the status of your exemption request?

aren't they likely to start issuing licenses for drones in a year or 2? I'm not a pilot, how could I get a license that people who fly planes and choppers get?

I filed for a FAA exemption last month but I have some real-estate contacts right now that are wanting me to do some aerial photography. What is a realistic charge for photos and 2-3 minute videos of a property? For anyone who has done real-estate shoots, what are your rates or do you have a...

BlackTracer, yours actually looks higher than mine even. maybe it's just more pronounced because of the colored props. I guess it's not causing a problem, I'm still curious if they're all like this to some degree. it's strange we both have the same thing with both left side props.

yours is the same, the 2 on the left side sit slightly higher? that's what I was wondering, maybe it's part of the design. if I turn it upside down and sit it on the motor heads (with the props off) it's perfectly level. I've tried different props and they're all more or less the same.

It's not as clear in the pic as it is looking at it in person straight on.

A few weeks ago I was flying and it seemed like the Phantom was tilted to one side when hovering. I thought it was just my eyes playing tricks on me but today when I installed my new prop guards it looks like both props on the left side are about .25 inch higher than the right side. I'm assuming...

so I guess the quick release is the best solution if you want full functionality?

I'm not really happy with the video quality on the P2V+, is it possible to swap out it's gimbal/camera for the Zenmuse H4-3D without soldering or using the quick release add-on? if so, does it have full functionality with the DJI Vision app?
