    OBX Phantom 4 Pro Charger

    I'm visiting the Outer Banks for the week. I made a bone-headed mistake and left the house without any of my 4 chargers! I mostly fly FPV these days and they only time I really fly my DJIs are for work, in which case I charge the batteries at home. Anybody on the OBX have one for sale or mind...

    Chinese drone manufacturer DJI takes control over a drone & Crashes it!

    If you watch again, the pilot activates RTH to get his drone heading back to home. It's going ~ 26 mph. They cancel RTH and switch to sport mode. Now they're flying back at 40 mph to get out of the TFR area.

    EXTREME Price Jump

    Link? The original P4P has been discontinued. Someone may be trying to see how much they can sell a brand new one for. The P4Pv2 can be found for approx $1500. Good luck finding them though.

    Chicago’s new misinformed law.

    I agree with what you're saying; however, who's going to sue them? If you're personally affected, I'd contact the state AG office and the FAA and list your concerns.

    Chicago’s new misinformed law.

    This 100%! I have a copy of my drone registration in each of my cases and Virginia drone ordinance printed on the other side. Much faster than fumbling through my phone trying to pull it up.

    Video recording and CrystalSky

    Nope, doesn't matter which record button you use. You select the format you want to record in. Which sd card were you using? The one from the drone or the one from your crystalsky? Off the top of my head, look in a folder labeled /dcim.

    Video recording and CrystalSky

    The high quality video is stored on the SD card on your drone. The video downlink that you see on your screen is stored on the internal memory of the crystal sky. If you have an SD card inserted on the CS. It's stored on there. I can send you the location when I get home and check. No...

    The Proof birds do Calculate. Bird spots me on fly by.

    It realized it had webbed feet and no talons to grab you! Abort mission! Great video and the funny thing is, my friend just posted a video of a gull doing the same thing except it went under his drone. Good to know about these guys. I mainly focused on eagles, hawks, falcons, and those darn...

    Why are the majority of drone pilots last inline

    Just reading through some of the latest comments. If you're unsure of something, the FAA has a dedicated UAS email address and they're super friendly and helpful. More than eager to help. [email protected]

    Advice

    Yes. It's perfect for the job. If he doesn't want to spend that much. Phantom 3 also works, you just lose some technology.

    Local County Park Unlawfully attempting to regulate drones

    Unfortunately the law allows the Director to issue orders and rules as they see fit, even if they conflict with other laws. Until someone successfully challenges the director, his order remains in effect. The problem is it costs lots of money and lots of time and you're not guaranteed a...
