    FAA proposal: Fly at night and over people; OK without waiver

    I can always count on you, Sar104 to correct my opinion, my eyesight, many a comment made by me and many others...there you are to set us straight. What would we do without you? Yes, I see the difference with it enlarged and I saw a difference without your polite handing over your bifocals. I...

    FAA proposal: Fly at night and over people; OK without waiver

    How in the world did someone manage get a Trello up to 1,900 ft?

    Wow I’m surprised at how little difference there is between the two!

    Drone Operator Stupidity

    This “incident” did not happen. Why even keep the thread open? I’ve seen more productive conversations than this stopped because it rubbed one of the moderators the wrong way. I’m sick of our hobby and for some, our livelihood get trashed day after day after day by nothing but lies and negative...

    Drone-a-holic

    I apologize for being nosey, but if I may ask what does a P3 SE go for these days? Is that essentially the old P3P and did you get it New?

    Drone horror movie

    To answer the original poster’s question. It will clearly perpetuate ignorant people’s opinion of them and what they’re capable of. A lot of people and I mean A LOT of people allow pop culture to sway their opinions on just about anything and everything. And a lot of it is subconscious on the...

    Be safe, be legal - and be clever

    All I have to say is you take beautiful photos and I think the FAA regulations in regard to flying over people is preposterous. I don’t seek to debate it - it’s just too much - over the top - like most of the regs they think they’re protecting everyone with.

    What is the best tablet to use for the P4 pro v2?

    There is no comparing the Huawei tablet with an Apple iPad of any size or variation. The build quality is superior and resale is much much better. It is a fact that iOS is more stable with DJI go 4. I’ve seen it many times with my friends galaxy tab s3 having issues and I’m already up in the...

    Will we get screwed by Trade War?

    The playing field has been so skewed for so long in China’s favor that we literally have handed them their economy on a silver platter while simultaneously shackling our own. It will take years of aggressive negotiations and smart business sense to just begin to turn that giant ship around...

    Hey, this is for real.

    I have no opinion on the topic of this post as I haven’t looked into the specifics. But the title of it got my attention and I had to check it out. I have no issue with WV posting this in the off topic area and I do not understand for the life of me why anyone would. On one hand I agree...

    DJI tries to bill me for repair on a drone that is still on the river bottom..

    OMinWVa: It’s interesting reading some of these replies to your post. I have a P4A, which they did replace for me due to the battery not being completely connected or properly. This happened less than one month after I purchased it new. I expected they would either repair mine or replace it...

    Got the cops called on me this morning!

    I corrected my error, Mr. LarBear360. However, does anyone really think the FAA is going to lift a finger if we lose or have our drone stolen? Probably only if it was also used to commit a crime. Most people write the registration number on the vehicle body somewhere - often on a sticker. I...

    I missed the update from last December. Oops. Ok, they’re back to confiscating $5 apiece from each of us. Oh well. Figures.
