Easiest method by far. Coat hanger and duct tape. No need for sensors, electronic releases, ect. No chance of line dragging your bird into the ocean either.

The map issue was bird side, or a miscommunication with the Android app. Don't think it has anything to do with internet connection on the tablet. But regardless, that was fixed in the latest Android app update. You should update. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk

Checkout the larger diy frames like the matrice. DJI offers many more options besides the Phantom series. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk

Thank you. I have not uploaded any flight logs to Healthy Drones yer, so this info is very helpful. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk

What I mean is, is there any other data stored in flight log files other than the speed, altitude, Time, and height of the aircraft? Perhaps, number of sattelites connected, when sattelites drop connection, motor rpm's, battery life usage, heading, ect. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk

Also depending on the application. Consumer grade GPS (car navigation) is going to be less accurate than the GPS systems I use when doing construction surveying. That was the only point I was trying to make. His blanket statement of "GPS isn't accurate" is ambiguous and debatable. Sent from...

In your area of expertise (yachting, I believe?) GPS and GloNass systems may be operating on a limited number of frequencies. As apprised to, again, survey grade equipment operating on L1 and L2 frequency bands. Accuracy is most definitely higher than 3-10m as you stated. We are able to Archieve...

Survey grade equipment in the United States uses GloNass sat systems. So I wouldn't necessarily say it is "limited" to Russian military ops. Unless I am misinterpreting your responce somewhere.
