Below is the content of an e-mail I received from The FAA regarding their upcoming webinar regarding Facilities Maps. The webinar will explain the maps and how to understand them. It will be a big help when you find yourself in controlled air space and how to get permission to fly. They touched...

You are trying to take this somewhere you don''t belong and that where I stand on politics. To answer your question You and Government both need to stay out of my business as far as to what I do or don't think. SO read the post and input properly are mind your on business. By the way the post...

I have read that the best reaction is to fly up and away from them. like hawks they attack from above.

I didn't correct you. I was just pointing out these type of regulations have been around for ever and that I am no more afraid of having my drones ID'd than having my automobile ID'd. Sorry if I offended you. I had no intent to do so.

Well that would make sense grandfather the existing drones. In a few years they want be flying away. No batteries.

Are you saying that all existing drones will not be dead in the water? Surly there will be away to bring them into compliance. I hoping DJI has it covered with their Remote ID function I wonder about all the home made drones and aircraft or others not manufactured by DJI what will they do? There...

Everything you drive, or even pull on the streets and highway, fly in the air, operate on water all are required to be registered and have identifying plates or identifying numbers. Those laws have been around as long as I can remember. I don't feel like I am opening my doors wide open all of a...

Well that's good news. I hope they get it going, that being DAC and Task Groups I personal have no concerns about the Remote DI but, I do have concerns about my back pocket. These drone cost a lot and and I am sure an after market or even a DJI add on product would also be expensive. Or the...

https://dronelife.com/2019/07/10/u-s-lawmakers-express-frustration-with-drone-remote-id-delay-this-summer-says-standards-committee-chair/ I received this in an e-mail today. The only question I have about it is, does the DJI GO 4 APP remote ID setting work for what they're requiring or will we...

I haven't done it but I think you can shoot still's while shooting video at the same time with a Phantom 4 Disregard what I stated above I just read that I was incorrect. Sorry about that but for me I just do one or the other which ever works at the time.

They say don't leave baby's, pets and battery's in cars/trucks with the windows up especially during summer Common causes of battery swelling include: Overcharge conditions which accelerate parasitic reactions between the electrodes and electrolyte, with release of heat and gases. Poor cell...

FAA Establishes Restrictions on Drone Operations over Additional Military Facilities The Federal Aviation Administration announced today new airspace restrictions effective July 11, 2019 on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) attempting to fly over national security sensitive locations. The FAA has...

I don't know of any post stating that. The FAA representative on the FAA web cast made that statement Thursday. You can go to the FAA Youtube channel and I am sure the web Cast is uploaded by now. It's worth watching if it is. I just checked and didn't find it but here is their link. It will be...

One of the more interesting answers from the FAA yesterday was where can a recreational flyer fly and it was stated as above but he also said you have to obey local, state, and even home owner association rules. It seems to me that the FAA is giving up a lot of authority seeing how they have the...

LAANC for the recreational flyers gives them a way to request permission to fly in a controlled air space. They can already fly in at a approved FAA CBO site or as you called it field and in any Class G air space.
