    FAA TFR for Superbowl LIV - Miami, FL 2/2/2020

    Been at this drone thing possibly longer than anyone and when the first DJI drone surfaced I predicted by 2020 the intended use of drones would forever be lost. Regretfully 95% of the pilots who fly them are respectable to others and follow procedures - Regretfully a small group of morons have...

    Am I really not allowed to fly a drone over farmland?

    Intersting images with the extreme low tide and even more interesting is the 4-5 barges pushed up on the shore! Good Stuff!

    Am I really not allowed to fly a drone over farmland?

    Good Grief - why fight the guy just move, there are thousands of farms to fly over where no one cares. Most important don't give drones any more bad publicity than they already have! Regards

    Hey Phantom guys - I still have 3 of my Phantoms - anyhow, I just finished a short film on RV lithium powered systems. The production was shot in the beautiful mountains and lakes here in North Georgia, so I thought I would share the film. I shot the aerials in eight different locations to...

    Revoking 336 Hobby Rules

    It's all these Goofy rules that only hurt pilots who fly correct, the idiots are totally unaffected by any guidelines, why should they - do you think Walmart or Best Buy is going to instruct them on how to fly safely. Regards

    DJI Warranty Warning. This is message I just received from DJI Service.

    This is a straight out scam to make loyal customers pay for repairs regardless if they have the warranty from DJI. In 40 years of helicopter flying, I never seen the lame excuse used that you can't turn when the machine is ascending. This maneuver is absolute common and accomplished with ease. I...

    Three Machines; Inspire 1 & two P3P’s No Image Transmission!

    Traveler thanks for the reply, I own 2 mini 3's 1 Mini 4, Ipad 10" Ipad pro 12.9 and a combination of 4 cell phones which were rebooted and new apps installed as well. So this pretty much rules out that App hardware. As I mentioned the processor is no seeing the Video Board as shown below in...

    Three Machines; Inspire 1 & two P3P’s No Image Transmission!

    This problem has nothing to do with any user changeable elements here's a few post below. When you check the hidden files from the machine you can see that the board is now "Not Detected" this means that there is no communication from the drones processor to the video board. All three of my...

    Three Machines; Inspire 1 & two P3P’s No Image Transmission!

    I have tried everything possible - there is hundreds of P3P's and Inspires with the same exact problem. It appears as if something was changed or altered in the the DJI go App to cause the problem. I had three machines stored and all failed the same day which is impossible for a hardware...

    Retaining Control of our Models & Our Privacy - Mike Mas

    While we all appreciate DJI's Agenda - of what they think is best for us as private citizens, we, or at least I, do not need a private company based in China who's sole interest is revenue, dictate where and how I fly my own model here in the US. I have flown R/C helicopters and drones...

    Retaining Control of our Models & Our Privacy - Mike Mas

    Hello Pilots, In the past year or so, the overall reliability of flying a DJI drone has changed for the worst. With the implementation of new revisions of “bloated” firmware with “No Fly Zones” massive Geo restrictions and logging of our private data, day to day dependability of our models has...
