    DJI to restrict non-compliant drones at next software update

    I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to update this P4. I am not the smartest pup in the litter. It is the DJI Go4 you have to upgrade?

    I just prepared a letter and sent it to the FAA, stating that I am getting ready to take the part 107 test. I explained exactly what I am doing (photographing violations of the LNG pipeline construction companys) I expect a reply will keep you all advised on a return reply.

    I deal with the police on a continual basis. They usually tell me as long as I don't go on the pipeline easement they can't do anything to me. If I would go on the easement that felony trespassing.

    I have 5 Australian shepherds they are herding breed and when the P4 takes off they want to try to bring it back. I would rather ditch my drone than hurt one of my dogs so I keep them at home.
