Nice video, but I have a question... at about 2/3 through the video, was that seagull dive bombing your drone? Sure looks like it!

Glad someone said it... FLYING RATS!!!!! They have become a serious nuisance down at the Jersey shore. I have seen them dive bomb all kinds of different things including children and pets. On more than one occasion I’ve seen children and even infants struck by seagulls and come out of it...

I stopped posting pictures of the fun, unconventional stuff I do with my drones in this forum due to all the hateRs that feel it necessary to post their opinions, but I too have flown in the midst of fireworks. But considering that many of the P4 sensors would be useless because of the time of...

Something about my Body chemistry seems to attract mosquitoes more than most. It could be high blood pressure, hi sugar levels in the blood, or the mosquitoes around my area just liked the taste of my blood. But for whatever reason, the mosquitoes will go after me before any of my friends when...

Come on folks. Let’s stay on topic here and not get caught up in semantics that could skew us off topic. The question that was put out is merely does the orientation of the tablet, iPhone, or android affect the signal? I know there is an antenna inside of every device, but I don’t know whether...

I seem to remember reading in the history books where it was a capital offense punishable by death by burning at the stake in Salem for a woman to use a broom while wearing a pointy hat too!!!

Does this mean that DJI will finally stop with the invasive updates that run the risk of changing the drone into a $1000 brick?

When the FAA first required registration of small drones in 2015, I thought it was just silly that many operators were hiding the registration numbers in the battery compartment. Manned aircraft are required to have the registration numbers displayed in plain sight. It was only a matter of time...

I fly in wildlife management areas too occasionally, and because of where I live, there are busy highways nearby that have high fences protecting the wildlife. Interestingly enough, I find that if I disable the downward sensors I can fly relatively close to the deer in the management area...

Oh, I wouldn’t say that. But it does make for one very expensive ball of yarn

Although I am not a pet owner (allergies), I am a bit of a techie. So I decided to research the question of if a dog can hear ultrasonic sounds. All the sties I checked out said yes. In fact, some of the sites even went on to say that strong ultrasonic sensors that can detect motion from...

Read this to the tune of the (also demonic nursery rhyme) Three Blind Mice. Jerry the deaf mouse. He lived in a house. So did Tom the cat. A sneaky cat. The mouse scared the homeowners wife! So Tom caught the mouse and chopped it up with a carving knife, It was really sad but the mouse had...

Today’s drone pilots are just ahead of their time. There was a time in days gone by where a similar phenomena took place between the horseless carriage and stagecoaches. It’s funny how history seems to repeat itself.

I can understand dogs wanting to chase drones. To the dogs, this is what they see when they are looking at drones!

I don’t know if using a leash is such a good idea. I mean, drones can unexpectedly fly away at times, right?
