    CASA ReOC (Australia) Phone interview 11am this Thursday

    Well I am back having just done the verbal assessment with CASA for the ReOC, and I thought I would give some quick feedback for anyone interested in doing this in the future. Firstly, it is not that daunting. Like with the RePL license test which was open book, this is too. You can have all...

    CASA ReOC (Australia) Phone interview 11am this Thursday

    I am preparing to do it soon. Just going over the operations manual and procedures library. It should be straight forward and in hindsight I could have prepared these myself rather than having someone do it, though this didn't come at a great cost. I was curious to hear about other people's...

    Backpack for P3S - Manfrotto or Vanguard?

    Back with another bag bump. In search of something similar but cheaper to the helipak, I've come across the Lowepro DroneGuard BP 400. This one has flown under the radar I think. There is only one mention of it on this forum, only one decent review of it on youtube and no reviews on B&H. Weird...

    Backpack for P3S - Manfrotto or Vanguard?

    Last night I also saw the helipak v1 for 120 but didn't update the thread. Guess that's the deal you snagged, cause it's back up to 150 now. It looks like a simple but really good option. Can't you reorder the dividers to have the drone at the top? Otherwise I don't see much difference in the...

    Backpack for P3S - Manfrotto or Vanguard?

    Hey cala, I'm curious - what pack did you end up going with? I was also looking at those packs at about the same time - the D1, and the vanguards. Good point about the quad being at the bottom of the manfrotto - I hadn't considered that. The top segment of the manfrotto also seems like an...

    CASA's Can I Fly There? app

    Looks like the app in not compatible with Note 4. As for the Royal National Park permissions, their page says that "flying recreational drones is not permitted because this park is located within 5.5km of an airfield or helicopter landing site", however most of the park is outside of the...
