    First Negative Encounter in San Jose

    I certainly do believe the ordinance is vague, and intentionally so. However, the courts in a given State are much more likely to rule in favor of the intentionally, liberal left leaning interpretation of a given description. Which is why it's so very important to my family and I to live in a...

    BREAKING!!! U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Those records are also required to be available for inspection at any time. Personally, I do not believe for one second the transmitted data on a gun purchase isn't being recorded at the Federal level. I don't trust government any further than I could pick up the White House and throw it.

    First Negative Encounter in San Jose

    The initial opening statement of this ordinance makes it clear that it applies to remote controlled aircraft and not cell phones or flashlights. "Other device/Power source" is an open ended catchall that covers battery powered aircraft. It was intentionally written that way to precluded future...

    BREAKING!!! U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Before I say this, please understand I'm on your side and love what you've written here. However, IMO, even though we don't have to "register" a gun by S/N with the government in most States, if you purchase one that requires a background check like from a gun store, that S/N is recorded...

    BREAKING!!! U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Aren't the serial numbers for these Phantoms inside the shell? I don't recall seeing one on the outside, but I'm not able to look at mine right now. Otherwise, how will the FAA keep the drone registered to one individual if not by the S/N? And DJI has said removing the top shell negates the...

    CNN Article, "How to reign in drone nightmares".

    It sure as hell seems to be going that way....even more so these days than in the past 20 years IMO.

    CNN Article, "How to reign in drone nightmares".

    CNN Article dated yesterday. I searched forums and didn't see this posted. The author posted some links to a few drones stories, one I hadn't read before. This simply illustrates, as if further illustration were needed, how paranoid the media and the ignorant public at large CHOOSE to be.

    FAA records detail hundreds of close calls between airplanes and drones

    **** like this just pisses me off. NOT talking about you, OP. Just the topic in general. There is a given segment of society who will actually listen to this ********. The people who clean my house once every couple of weeks are a fine example. Even though they know my stance on Quad's and...

    Went to fly this morning and had a weird event occur.

    You can complete a total Compass re-calibration using the BTU reset. This will allow you to complete a reset of the compass that then allows you to reset the entire system. I don't know why it does this, I only know it does. Once you do this reset, on a completely level surface as described...

    An adjustable choke shotgun with steel balls could easily do this in the hands of an avid shooter.

    Is it possible that just maybe Phantom 3's falling from sky and griping is competition?

    There are ALWAYS shills trying to do this no matter the product. I've seen in it the many car forums I frequent as well as computer forums. Not to mention the political forums. Then, there are the "astroturfers" who are from a competing company that swoop in after some shill posts their...

    Adjusting tilt control wheel on P V2+

    Nope. Mine is smooth as butter in either direction. Less movement equals less movement on the gimbal and camera.
