    Ok I'm done here....again. If you cannot see them asserting control over a device you purchased that had no such controls prior to that point then I cannot help you. You've seen the objections but your head is so firmly implanted that a proctologist has to give you a haircut. Look at the...

    In the end, I didn't get personal so lets not get that way. We've hashed this over enough and I still side with this being an overreaction to a tempest in a teapot. The sheer number of drone flights and the only a handful of bad moments doesn't call for this level of interference. If they...

    Criminals don't follow the rules they're criminals. The rest of us would easily be handled by the systems already in place, this attempt to "think for us" does nothing save to open a path that someone will abuse. Scenarios do come to mind which would be able to turn the system DJI put in place...

    That's cool I don't have an issue with the updating of the NFZ in real time. I had an issue with the possibility of them enforcing an unnecessary restrictive behavior on the drone. So this is nice and I'm warming to the idea of going through this update. It still is silly in a way, I've seen...

    Have you tried it? Go look and see if the Set Max Altitude is still there.

    Yep and then some hacker cracks their GEO system and turns the whole of the US into an NFZ. Have fun

    Well as for inconvenience I've always done my own updating for apps on my devices. I usually get "bothered" by seeing that iOS red dot with a number telling me something. So I moved my App Store icon to the very last screen where I can't see it immediately. I did flash back to the 418 as a...

    Will DJI Go 4 and P4P get Spark's new flight modes?

    Hopefully they hold their hand out and back the spark straight into a wall.

    New sUAS job offers...Be Cautious

    I've seen posts on reddit DJI subs asking for pictures of the pilots city. It's one of those work for "exposure" type things photographers get hit with all the time. Ignore them and keep taking your own pictures. It would suck to get pulled in and have your picture show up someplace only to...

    Will we ever get a bugfree P4P?

    You need to maybe make contact with someone else in the area with a Phantom. I've had mine give errors but always compass errors and usually those are from something in the environment. I've never had an IMU error like that so far. *knocks on wood*

    I really wish they would just answer the questions with plain language. Will this restrict the users choice in how to fly? Will this mean you're removing the flight parameters page and say locking the ceiling to 400ft no exceptions? I always knew that if I took my drone to Europe for example...

    Bill being drafted to destroy drones (especially photo drones),

    arrested for flying a drone with no charges given during the report. I would most definitely want to know what they are being charged with. Still it doesn't surprise me that the Steel guy might have haters that would use law enforcement to harass him. I'm sure there's a few limp types on here...

    For those of us with the P4P I looked on DJI Assistant2 and I still saw the older versions available for downgrade. If you're concerned and saw no issues using the craft under the previous version (418) then I'd flash back and wait it out. Could be a tempest in a teapot but I point to my...

    No. If you do nothing such as do not update the Go 4 app nor update the firmware you will still operate as you have operated in the past. The new app and new firmware instate the new rules.

    So screw the majority just to get the few back in line. Sorta like burning your house down to get rid of the cockroaches?
