    Does anyone here drive an EV or Plug-in Hybrid car?

    I only knew about it, because I briefly looked into them as well awhile back. I too enjoy the wind in my hair...

    Does anyone here drive an EV or Plug-in Hybrid car?

    Those spyders like to catch fire, be careful! Then again, as an owner, I'm sure you must know that already. (other readers - google spyder recall or spyder fires) Or did I just stumble on a back story there to your nicname? Red Hot Poker in a Flame....:confused:

    Using camera without flying

    Yeah, that's why I added the "if stationary". I was weighing the value of having it slop around during transport to if you were going to leave it on a table you didn't need the gimbal kinda' thing.... But silly or not, that elephantom thing is a pretty freakin clever idea!

    Battery Life Cycles (new 15.2v 4480mAh)

    Excellent!! But wait a minute... How do you have over 70 flights and show only 22 cycles? ...that's like 3 flights per cycle or recharge... If a battery lasts ~20 minutes, and you get 3 per charge? Do you only fly for 7 minutes at a time? Just curious. Nice! Thanks delirious! Have you...

    Hard to view tablet even with hood P3

    I used to have eagle eyes when I was younger....now? At 50? Not so much! That's why I had to buy this iPad Air 2 just for my Phantom...:D couldn't see my iPhone o_O too small. :mad: ...and yeah, California gets pretty sunny, but I cant make out the screen with my polarized sunglasses on though...

    Battery Life Cycles (new 15.2v 4480mAh)

    So I've seen the expected life cycles of the older P2 batteries to be around 50 - 300 cycles. And I do realize that battery care and maintenance will determine how many cycles one gets from his battery. But I was just wondering how many cycles should be expected with these newer 15 volt...

    Hard to view tablet even with hood P3

    go into SETTINGS -> DISPLAY AND BRIGHTNESS and slide that all the way up. I don't even have a hood on my iPad Air 2 and I can see it fine with slider all the way. Other than that, make sure your sunglasses are NOT polarized.

    Does rebar affect satellite lock

    right, I was saying, that alone should let you know it does more than just heading. Like a magnetometer... You can determine heading with just one. You know....like a compass. ;):D Just being silly...:confused:o_O:rolleyes::oops: EDIT: But hey! while I got your attention Ian....do you expect...

    Does rebar affect satellite lock

    I think just the fact that you have to calibrate the thing on more than one axis tells you it does more than just heading... but I couldn't pretend to tell you what that was. *shrug*

    Does rebar affect satellite lock

    Here, an over-simplified explanation of what he meant at 47 seconds and compass so out of whack the GPS doesn't function properly. I think it's just semantics. The GPS works fine with a messed up compass... ...its just the "results" of GPS don't function properly. i.e. the GPS can not tell...

    DJI has confirmed no waypoints for DJI Pilot

    Yeah, that conversation was "as of release" back in April. I think this is msinger volunteering to get-er-done :) ...kinda' like for volunteers where everyone else steps back! :rolleyes:o_O:D:p;)
