    Is the following an invasion of Privacy?

    Last year I accompanied a pilot my broker contracted with to do aerials of a new listing. I'm licensed & do some of my own on less important properties, this company does a much better job editing. I usually stand behind the pilot, if OK with him/her, & if I need to point out specifics that...

    RTH accuracy

    I flew yesterday, had good accuracy (3ft) on a cell phone real estate app. I use Beginners Mode with a P3P to lessen a chance of a fly away (this is my 3rd AC). First location no problems, 2nd location wife was talking & I don't remember hearing Home Pt updated. As soon as I was about 3 ft up...

    CRAZY FOOTAGE THAT I CAME ACROSS ~ Enjoy!

    I thought when he flew into the boxcar that wasn't gonna end well. I guess he didn't stay long enough? Wish I had a tenth of his skill.

    Forced to Take DJI Exam?!?

    This might be spread among their products. I just bought an OSMO, it forced me to do a tutorial.

    Fishing oh no

    We've used kites for many many years in both state & federal waters to carry bait/lures in positions & distances from the boat. No regs against it. Cant see a UAV any difference in using kites. Hunting is a different critter. Many states dont allow baiting/feeders, etc. I can see how UAV...

    I've been out of US for awhile & so busy I didn't realize my weekly feed stopped coming. I don't see a way to get it going again. Did this service go away or was something updated & I need to renew? Thanx JB

    Got a call from the local FAA - someone 'reported' me

    I saw a video like this, last year?, the town was deserted & so was the streets, as it flew down the street at what seemed like 6 feet. I thought it was a very nice video, well done. Have to agree with the others someone who knows you well. I'm a Realtor now & was first in town with a Phantom...

    Drones and wild life

    I routinely harass my deer, while trying to use up whats left on the battery. They just get up & walk away. They will eat anything, some kick open garbage bags without a can. To dispel an ol' timers tale about a deer putting a hoof thru your heart, it ain't so. It hurts but never broken skin. I...

    Ignorant People Make Me Wonder Why I Bother?

    When I get harassed by one of these "intelligent" folks, I try the nice way & show them what the camera can see & how things operate. Then I follow up with a YouTube video Can You Spy with a Drone? (Test) - YouTube I'll show them on my screen if they want to watch then or tell them to Google...

    DJI Christmas Email sortof bothered me.

    Chinese doesn't translate to English very well at all & vice versa. I have a close friend who is from China, she's been in US for a few years. Her English is amusing to put it mildly. Some get very annoyed when she doesn't say things like we would. She tells me that the Chinese language...
