    Drones and Weapons, a Dangerous Mix - from FAA

    By that definition I suppose we should remove the props in order to conform.

    RIP Flytrex Live

    I'm surely not a lawyer but I thought that part of doing business in the US involved a commitment to support products for so many years after production stops. Since they are still in business under the same name, wouldn't that appy? Cheers, John P.

    RIP Flytrex Live

    I got the same song and dance. So now they want their customers to shell out even more money on a project that is still shaky at the very best. They must be kidding! Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me! Drone delivery might be possible, but practical application is probably...

    Whose sky is it anyway? U.S. drone case tests rights to air space

    What you need to understand is this, It is the FAA that is on record as defining our so called toys, as being aircraft. But so far they fail to prosecute those who interfere with the operation of them as is described by the law. They seem to only be interested in regulating them, collecting...

    Whose sky is it anyway? U.S. drone case tests rights to air space

    My question is simple, since the FAA has determined that UAS (quads aka drones) are considered to be aircraft, when will they enforce action against those who interfere with the operation of such as the law clearly states? Seems to me like they have a double standard regarding this...

    how many use a external GPS tracker

    I have tried just about every tracker out there and I have settled on using Flytrex trackers on all my birds. The most accurate of all them.

    What should DJI do for the P5?

    Most of the above but most of all, six motors which will hopefully allow it to come home in the event a motor or esc fails (like I had happen to me).

    Epson Moverio BT200

    Not sure if I lost contact with you or not. If you didn't receive my last (second) PM, give me a hoot back here. Just need to know if PayPal is OK with you. I also put in the PM the email address that you can send your request for payment to. Please insure it fully and add that cost into your...
