Yes...lined up perfectly with NE/SW runway (50/230) and google maps says I'm 2.1 miles from the end of runway 50. And yes, it is nice that they actually called to discuss the change in AGL.

On April 6 I made a request to fly in surface Class E about 2 miles from an airport in northern Minnesota. Got my approval today (May 4th) valid May 5 '17 to Nov. 30 '17. Only change the FAA made was to limit my altitude to less than 100' AGL - I requested 200' AGL. They gave me a .5 nautical...

Using Final Cut Pro X to edit, I had the same issue - flickering lines. The video needs to be deinterlaced. I found this quick YouTube video that shows how to deinterlace the video - I hope this makes a difference for you....

I did the same thing last week and was able to complete the update. I read in this forum somewhere to turn on the P3P and let it sit. It'll continue the update after a few minutes. That's what I did and it worked. Have made a couple of flights since w/o any issues. Good luck!!

I'm in Minnesota so, same boat. As dirkclod said, bring to 50%. I put in a ziplock, and store in the fridge. Simon Newton has a good video on batteries - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKJ002tI ... rVhiOEtGjQ Hopefully we will get a warmer day or two each month this winter to get out and fly...

Just notified that #3185 has been shipped. I ordered on April 23. 4+ months - I hope it was worth the wait.

Look here for FCPX plugin - http://www.alex4d.com/

I've been editing GoPro (.mp4) files in Final Cut Pro X for a while now. No issues. I do use MPEG Streamclip to assemble GoPro timelapses and then bring into FCPX for editing. That works fine as well. Also, found a free FCPX "remove fish-eye" plugin that works for P2V and GoPro.

Re: Minnesota - Area Code 952 Meetups & Flyins I think it is focused on law enforcement. That they can't use "drones" with cameras to gather evidence on individuals without a warrant or imminent threat. The House Public Safety Finance and Policy is meeting tomorrow (March 11) at 10:00 in 10...

Re: Minnesota - Area Code 952 Meetups & Flyins PhantomDave... I'd like to send a PM but the site doesn't let me...it says, "We are sorry, but you are not authorised to use this feature. You may have just registered here and may need to participate more to be able to use this feature." I'm...

Re: Minnesota - Area Code 952 Meetups & Flyins PhantomDave... I'm a newbie. Just got a PV2 this week. Haven't flown it yet and want to learn. I live near you and work in St. Paul. Let's chat...
