Same here. 4.0GHz QC i7, TB up to 4.2GHz 16GB 1867MHz DDR3L (2x8GB) 3TB Fusion Drive AMD Radeon R9 M395 w/2GB

I'm to your east. Haven't flown in 4 weeks due to travel. I'll try to hit up the Yeager tower next week to see what I get. They've been great the few times I've had to contact them. Like you said, probably temporary.

Glad to hear it's temporary, neighbor. Airport east or west of you?

Same here, although I still prefer my iPad Air 2.

In the US, the FAA says it's legal. Their position is that airspace belongs to them above a reasonable use height limit. 80 ft above any structure is often cited as the end of private air space. It's an older law that has not been challenged in court recently with proliferation of UAVs...

I came across this a few weeks ago. When several people cautioned him about the safety violations, he replied boasting about how he looked up all relevant regulations and followed them to the letter. He even quoted the law regarding not flying less than one hour before event along with the "up...

Volcano National Park is aggressively enforcing the existing No Fly rules. Hilo has passed a restriction citing helicopter tourist flights. Oahu passed a law prohibiting take offs and landings from public beaches last year. Don't know about the rest of Oahu though. I had no problems on Maui...

The 5k iMac is perfect for editing as long as you boost the RAM and get the best graphics card with max RAM. May I ask why you felt it wasn't up to the task? Software? Just price? Gaming, OTOH, isn't a strength of Mac OS.

Yes. 4K has 4 times number of pixels than 1080p video. Frame rate is more important for motion and doesn't affect resolution or picture "sharpness." Also, at 120fps you will be watching the resultant video at 1/2 speed slow motion unless you edit in post. Of course, very little reason to do...

Because you can only do 120 fps in lower quality settings. 4K will always be sharper.

I've posted about both of my crashes in earlier threads. I decided to post a quick summary to help others who may be wondering what it costs to get repairs and how to go about it. This is US specific, other areas of the world will likely be different. My first crash was into a tree and...

Smile and wave. If you're following the rules, there's no reason to be frightened. That's like all the people in the US who slow down to 15mph under the speed limit when they drive past a cop. Just smile and wave. Thumbs up if that is an acceptable gesture.

If you are referring to the photos and videos while viewing in the DJIGo app, those are not the full quality files. You have to pull the full quality from the card, either wirelessly or by pulling the card and reading it on tablet or computer. When you pull up a photo in DJIGo, it gives you...

RTH max is always set in meters in the app. It doesn't matter if you change preferences to Imperial measurements. It remains specified in meters. And yes, if you set max height to 400 feet, it will not ascend above that for RTH. I'm not sure if you set max height at 400 feet if it will let...
