Common sense, an uncommon virtue. I hope there's no permenant damage, Monkeyleg. RodPad, why do you look down the barrel before engaging the safety?

Blah blah blah not safe blah blah funny when you hit a spaceship blah blah blah FAA blah blah blah... (and yes, I see he's from Shakespeare's birthplace...)

Looked like the ref to the right threw something at it too (~3:44).

I carry a 4GB card in my case for just such contingencies.

Should be the metal covered item inside with two antenna less coming off of it, unless it's significantly different from the P2V+.

Maybe put it in a 5 gal pail with rice... perhaps it's not as dry as you think.

I'd love to beta test one for you as well. And I'm currently a contractor who deals with unmanned systems in the .mil world... just sayin' ;) I have a plastic "bin" that is segregated inside. Maybe include just such a thing for small parts/tools/etc. As an example:

What you want is outside of what you can afford. You're asking for more than what's available in current technology. DJI doesn't have the ability to make an affordable quad that can fly that long, otherwise they would have. There's a firm in Canada that got over two hours on a flight, but...

Correct, it doesn't. Using THREE of the available apps out in the wild (were they "paid" apps, or free?) and then writing off the rest of the field is hardly an objective study and doesn't not qualify your statement. Apps don't normally make iPad displays "melt" (temporarily) to my knowledge...

Batt #1 says it's has 95% of life left, so I'm not sure what caused it to discharge so quickly. Anyone else suffer a similar incident?

I think it is his WiFi connection level.

Flew battery #2, no issues with the bird or the battery. Flew battery #1 (the problem battery yesterday), low and slow around the house. Not more than 10' off the ground. No issues. Still need to check the battery status in the Assistant software, see if anything comes up. But otherwise...

You're in no position to make that claim. I'm sure Kenargo (as well as many others, like flyNfrank) appreciates it, however.

And, as it has seemingly become the process du jour in the US, you'll be guilty until proven otherwise.

With the golf course even! This proves I need to get out and play a round.
