    Are drones just a passing fad? Are you bored with your 'Phantom'?

    Thanks for the response, yes helicopters take time to master. Lots of broken machines before 0you can even hover one in any wind....

    Didn't mention that, but "been there done that" with the helicopters and the Quad also. It was okay, but single vision (Tunnel vision) was kind of a let down. You have no real depth perception and as an example, looking down and dropping the quad, you can't perceive hardly any changes/movement...

    I used to fly RC helicopters and it really required a lot of skill and time to learn. I used to fly one of several almost daily right out of my garage and peruse the neighborhood, and the neighbors all thought it was "cool". It was electric also, so no noise problem.... The first time I saw a...

    GPS Warning

    "disruption of GPS is likely far more relevant to US operations" For both protection and aggression.

    GPS Warning

    Soooo, you think China Lake Weapons Test Facility is not interested in "can we block aggressor GPS"?

    GPS Warning

    Think about this: China Lake "as in weapons test facility" is doing this test. Why would they see if they can block only U.S. GPS signals? In the event of war, many targeting systems will rely on GPS. Do you thing China Lake would be only interested in blocking U.S. GPS?

    GPS Warning

    GLONASS is an acronym, which stands for Globalnaya Navigazionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema, or Global Navigation Satellite System. GLONASS is Russia’s version of GPS (Global Position System). To me, GPS systems will be affected, again means "all" GPS in the areas indicated

    GPS Warning

    Again, It does not say the "U.S." system will be blocked. It says GPS Sytem will be affected. To me that means "all" GPS in the areas indicated.

    GPS Warning

    Interesting, I did have a GPS loss about 4 months ago, and indeed it did a "fly away" as it lost orientation as to where it was in relation to me and controls from the transmitter such as forward are now "go left" or whatever, and when this happens it is so quick and confusing it is a...

    GPS Warning

    Okay, but since the claim is "it's a disrupting of GPS systems" and you are comfortable with flying at the times they are doing that, then fly at those times............ I felt that if someone else had this info, I would like to know about it..... So I posted it.

    GPS Warning

    I don I don't see anywhere in this reporting that it will disrupt "the" U.S. GPS System. It says black out GPS , which tells me all GPS systems... But then again, maybe that's just the way I interpret it.
