I don't know about a permit. I just called Burbank airport because I was within 5 miles and flying under hobby rules.

Update...the solar company installed the mesh around his solar panels! Niche market? Hmmm....

I don't know. I'm not the homeowner nor am I the pigeon-stopper-guy. I just thought it was comical that as soon as I took off and pointed the camera at the solar panels the pigeons climbed out and flew away. If it were up to me I'd just shoot them with an air rifle (.22's are a little too...

At about 7 secs as soon as the camera stops turning you can see one climb out from underneath. Look right in front of the vent at the top of the panels. You may have to view full screen.

It's kind of a big deal out here in the Mojave Desert to have solar panels. But some of the companies don't put anything around them to keep the birds from nesting underneath. A co-worker asked me to come by his house and take some video/photos of the birds so he could send it to the solar...

I have the Hobby Tiger hard shell backpack for the P4. My wife got it for me for Christmas as a gift so I did't do any research on it. I like it so far...comfortable and everything fits in it well. I like that it's a hard shell case and that it's molded foam inside. The foam is cut well and...

I'd hike up the Hollywood Sign. I called Burbank tower before I hiked all the way to top and got some great footage. They were very laid back about it...just wanted name, registration number and how long I was going to be flying. You'll have to keep a look out for sight seeing helicopters...

Congratulations! When's the big day? I'm in Anaverde (Ave S, west of the 14)

Bravo!

I'm curious if the boiling hot water effects the plastic propellers.

Pattern altitude is usually 1,000 AGL. Single piloted fighters & trainers don't typically fly your standard downwind-base-final. It's more of a steady 180 degree turn from downwind to final. When they're "in the groove" from base to final they will be well inside 3 miles from the runway...

I'm N1ROE. I was formerly a general (WA6NSE) until it expired. Retested 20 years ago when there was still a morse code requirement. Passed the written thru general but failed the CW portion so now now I'm a no-code technician. I'm good in QRZ: N1ROE Callsign Page

I thought that was the case. Reading the manual is doesn't show a 2.4 option, but I was watching a youtube video on how to change the frequencies. The video said it was for the P4 but it must have been for the P4P. Thanks...

I have no idea, but I'm wondering why asked about a P3A when you clearly drew a P4P...

Is 2.4 available for the P4? I've looked in the settings and all I see is the option to manually select frequencies on 5.8, but 2.4 isn't even an option.
