    Going to Paris: Permission for flying a drone

    I didn't fly it there. It's a no-fly zone. I wouldn't even try to on a dare. It's tempting as Paris is a beautiful city but the entire time I was there I didn't see a single drone in the sky. Not worth the risk. I did take plenty of photos though. I guess I got my fill from my SLR and not my drone

    Going to Paris: Permission for flying a drone

    Thanks for the responses. I figured it's going to be tough to get permission for Paris. I will nonetheless try to reach out to the authorities. Better to try and get rejected than never try at all and never know what could've been. That is the principal of life! Thanks again bud I appreciate...

    Going to Paris: Permission for flying a drone

    Hi guys, I'll be in Paris for a week and wanted to take my drone there for some aerial shots. I am assuming that it's pretty strict to fly there but there is the possibility of getting permission ahead of time. Any one know what the status is for flying drones there and who to reach out to get a...

    Eagles vs Drones

    Was just about to post this but saw you beat me to it. Pretty sick. I'm all for law enforcement. God knows there will be plenty of nuisance pilots as time goes on.

    Need Two Screws

    Hi everyone, I am a dumb-***. I misplaced two screws when I was installing the propeller guards. I have circled the missing screws in the attached image. If anyone has extras and is able to send two of these out to me I'll be truly grateful. I reside in IL, USA. I could order them from DJI's...

    How to disable Control Stick Command for Stopping The Motors

    I'm surprised why they can't add that feature in the app. Or would not even include it. Not sure what the reasoning behind that is. If I were to land the drone, I can pull down the throttle control for the blades completely down without worrying that they will shut off? In my cheaper drones...

    How to disable Control Stick Command for Stopping The Motors

    Is there a way to disable this so one doesn't accidentally do that midflight? i am looking to do a lot of panning shots and am afraid that I may unintentionally be holding the sticks in the combination that may turn off the motors. is there a way to disable that? Also I am using Mode 1 for the...

    DJI Pilot App Interface PDF For Everyone

    Here is a really good article and in simple english that breaks down what a histogram is and how to read it. There is no one universal reading that applies to all situations. A correct histogram is dependent on many factors. Are you shooting at night, in the sun, is the contrast between the dark...

    Daylight only operations as per FAA- no more night flights

    You have to understand, right now it's mainly hobbyists and pro video/photographers who are using drones. That's a very very very minutely small percentage. The drone industry is slated to go from $2bil to $12 bil in two years time and keep growing exponentially. Now imagine 1000's of drones...
