Jesus ****** Christ.. with some of you on here no matter what the govt or police do you slap them around, calling them bigots, racist & immoral. If you have such a flippin ***** for them then get it the heck over with. I agree that they are not always right, but seriously.. they screw up your...

There are a few stick positions to start the FC-40. You can do both to the bottom left, or the bottom right, or the top right or top left. I don't know if straight up or down would work, never tried that. I prefer both to the lower left. 8)

I stand corrected, I didn't see the whole link to drones on the aclu link, my bad & I apologize for that to you. http://www.krages.com/ThePhotographersRight.pdf And by the by, it can be against the law to use shots of people &/or property if you do not have written permission from the...

If the rotors are not turning then the quad is basically not on. You have to push the sticks both in the same direction at the same time. Think of a X, I push them both to the lower left. The rotors start spinning, I wait a few secs then give it left stick up to get altitude & go from there. I'm...

I know when I was stationed in Germany back in the early 90's, germans used to joke that americans are the most sue happy people they had ever seen. I know it hasn't gotten better, if anything its even worse here now. I mean, you have kids who are being taught if your parents punished you then...

Waiting on those usa military stickers, if they are close to the FF ones & same quality of his other stuff I'll be a very happy camper. Already thinking of a few other things to order also. Ever think about doing skins for the quads? Oh, and add to the current camo ones something along the...

Interesting too that they brought up not using a "spotter" (3) people other than the operator may not be used in lieu of the operator for maintaining visual line of sight. And no FPV "glasses". :roll: I'm asking the real life lawyers here.. who holds higher sway in the govt, the FAA or the...

Interesting HWB, If I remember right you are somewhere out in the Midwest so you have more elevation than we do here for the most part, the southern end of the Delmarva peninsula is pretty flat compared to say upstate DE like Wilmington. I was really surprised by the large wet area further out...

Discussion time.. I did search the forums but really only discussion I found similar was for gopro mainly being used, they couldn't seem to agree on that. And since this is more related to the FC40 then the video itself I thought it would go here, sorry if it should have been in the Video forum...

http://youtu.be/j--wblVhBqY Sort of like this purpose then. I was playing when I first got it so was flying it in a field, found it funny how I took off next to a bad wet area, I knew about the one maybe 10-15 ft away but after seeing the video I didn't realize there were more wet areas further...

Re: Enjoy your drones now while you can - will soon be banne Tappits.. or are stupid enough to post it to facebook or youtube. Duh. Or make a website with videos, or advertise you are in real estate & willing to do flyovers for clients/customers. And yes, even now people do stupid...

I'm not a lawyer nor did I stay in a Holiday Express last nite (j/k) ;) But recently I read some stuff locally about the how & whys the cops can detain you for disorderly conduct, which can be as lil as being belligerent to a cop. Making an arse of yourself. Oh & this is in the USA. You can...

Good luck on getting the NPS to rewrite the rules to allow the usage of RC craft in the parks again. Geocaching/Terracaching/Letterboxing is a minimally invasive activity but a few jerks ruined it for others so the activity is banned from all NPS lands. Delaware State Parks allow it with...

Re: Would anyone be interested in one of these? Only making Very nice idea, will be pm'ing ya after posting. Kudos for doing this. 8-)

Re: Enjoy your drones now while you can - will soon be banne FYI.. All Delaware State Parks ban the usage of all radio controlled (RC) craft. Look at rule 15 specifically 15.2. http://www.destateparks.com/rules/ I was going to be near a couple this weekend so was checking the rules to see if...
