    Philadelphia, PA area flight restrictions

    That's so funny because a few weekends ago I wandered up that way and discovered Penn Treaty Park. Never even knew it existed! Got some really cool shots of that old PECO station there. As well as the city from that distance.

    $50 batteries? Yes it's true.

    I had success at a local Target near my parent's house. Just found this thread while visiting and had to try it out. Best Buy right off the bat said they wouldn't because it was unavailable online and the only store that said it had it in stock was in NY (I'm in South Central PA, not close...

    Philadelphia, PA area flight restrictions

    Yeah it's pretty weird, I don't really understand everything in the B4UFLY app either. Because if you go into the map in B4UFLY for Philadelphia there's PHL of course, the big red circle, but then there are all of these yellow circles all over the place. Going into map filters and deselecting...

    Short answer, no I never did. Longer answer, sorta. I pretty much go by a combination of apps which show me flight restrictions on a map.

    Does anyone use the Google Nexus 7 second generation Tablet on P3S

My question for everyone who uses a 7" tablet; what kind of mount do you use for your P3S controller? I've been looking on Amazon for tablet mounts but...

    1.07.0090 FW is now official

    I updated on Saturday before taking some pictures of a friend's house. Was prompted right away and took nearly 20 minutes to fully update. I flew enough to kill one battery, going up to 400 ft but did not fly farther than 300 - 400 ft away from me. I noticed a brief moment where it told me my...

    Philadelphia, PA area flight restrictions

    Not necessarily down the Parkway, but around it I suppose. Especially the fountain at Logan Square. I'd have to scout it out of course first and make sure I have a good take off/landing and emergency landing locations mapped out.

    Philadelphia, PA area flight restrictions

    Hopefully I'm posting in the right section. I do apologize if I'm not. I live in Philadelphia and recently flew around the Art Museum and Boat House Row area right off of Kelly Dr. There's a parking lot right near the roundabout at the back of the Art Museum where I took off and landed. I got...
