    Worst flight ever with p4p I'm still shaking, no control but got it landed

    So, were you in "ATTI Mode" at that time? If so, kiss your satellites good-bye. You also had magnetic interference from that metal fence. Have you flown in that location before? Remember, these little electronic birds are so "Twitchy" They need the correct procedures done before each...

    Friend of a Friend Fined $1800 no registration on drone..i have questions

    I have mentioned this before & never got a result: I registered with the Company that made my DJI. & they stated that is all I need to do, as they register me with the FAA. It also allows me to fly in certain zones with-out a penalty. As long as I follow the same rules of a "Club" like the...

    Knock off batteries questions

    I understand, I have not used them, I don't want to lose the $1,500 I paid for my complete package that included everything I will need to fly with. I just don't understand why the Company has a "proprietor Chip Onboard" Kurt

    Knock off batteries questions

    Around 15 years ago there was a Company that was putting a chip in a battery, so if the equipment didn't see the chip & its serial number, it would not allow it to even turn on. When I read that info, I was extremely upset! Shortly afterwards, I found out that the federal Trade Commission...
