    Close Call at Hollywood Beach...

    Simmer down bud. I have been on several helicopter runs shooting with my DSLR over the years and have spoken to many pilots. They’ve all said that they expect the drone to get out of the way because usually they are going too fast and won’t see it in time. Fact is, it is 100% legal to fly there...

    Close Call at Hollywood Beach...

    I live in the area and fly along the beach all the time. Since it’s a big tourist hotspot, there are tons of sightseeing helicopters and small planes that cruise the coastline every few min, 7 days a week (much more on weekends.) I’ve been on the 15-20th floor of many condo buildings and always...

    Safe time to buy Phantom 4 Pro V2?

    Quick story, I had the original P4P+ since its initial release date. I use it for work, never any issues whatsoever. I’m getting a camera sensor error that I cannot overcome. Before I decide on repairing it, I need a replacement ASAP. I know there’s an announcement this week however my guess is...

    Awesome, thanks for the advice. I already have a P4P+ but i need to be able to fly to specific GPS coordinates.

    1st Video Edit - Ft. Lauderdale & Key West

    It may be frowned up by some but as far as i know, i didn't break any laws. In Fort Lauderdale, a police boat pulled up next to me after noticing that i was piloting the craft. He was really cool about it, asked some questions & wrote down the model name & prices. In Key West, there was a...

    FPV monitor mount

    I know this was asked earlier but no one ever answered. GoProfessional makes a fantastic hard-case for the Phantom 2. Someone on here claimed to have modified their case so that this 3D printed FPV mount would fit properly (as I'm sure this mount wasn't made to be taken off & reattached on a...
