    Delta Airlines

    I’ve flown on Delta with 8 flights in the last month - 2 today and I had absolutely no problems. I’m not sure how the airline would know how many batteries you have with you. I carry one on my P4 with 4 spares as well as all my DSLR batteries, GoPro, etc. I’ve been flying for 2 1/2 years with...

    Same photo, different post edits. Any opinions on which one people prefer? Thanks!!! BTW, this is right by 7 Mile Bridge north of Marathon one week before Hurricane Irma.

    What to do with a damaged drone?

    I feel bad for Massguy, but, on the other hand, that was good. Really good!!!

    Short Film Featuring Phantom 4 Pro

    I would have to say that your investment and training were worth it! It is very impressive to see video from our "toys" used this way. I actually forgot I was watching the short to see the P4P shots and was sucked into your story. Excellent job and good luck!!!

    Replace Top Shell or not

    Thank you all for the advice. I did as you mentioned and ordered the new shell. That is what I was leaning to, but it is nice to get affirmation from others. Unfortunately, the colleague is an employee of mine which made the situation delicate. I'm absorbing the cost and time as a punishment...

    Replace Top Shell or not

    Long story in condensed version: Sold Phantom 4 to colleague who didn't pay nor learn to fly P4 before I could teach. Drone wrecked since RTH height not set and returned to me with no money. Fortunately, it appears that only major damage is a destroyed motor and a small puncture to the top...

    Eclipse Photos

    I used a Nikon D500 with 200-500 AF- S Nikkor Lens and TC-14E III teleconverter. For the corona shots, I did not use a filter. When the sun was exposed, I used a Lee 100x100 mm Eclipse Filter in a Lee Holder. The pictures of the shadow moving across the sun are kinda of boring. But...

    So a cop pulled up tonight when I was flying....

    Not yet - no time. We are trying to get it scheduled. I shot a wedding, Sr pictures and the eclipse last week. But I actually own a HVAC company LOL. I will definitely update.

    So a cop pulled up tonight when I was flying....

    Thank you all for the suggestions. We live in a small town (30K pop) in the middle of Nebraska, so we don't actually have a local FAA office anywhere even close (about a 4 hour drive). I think I'm going to follow up with them next week and see if they were really serious. If so, I'm going to...

    So a cop pulled up tonight when I was flying....

    And he was absolutely professional and pleasant. I've had multiple experiences with police in several different areas, so I wasn't too worried. However, this was the first time one has specifically looked for me because of an "anonymous" tip, as well as the first time one of the local police...
