    Your Opinion Of This Police Harassment Of Drone Pilot:

    This happened to me about 5 years ago. Wasn't breaking any laws or anything was asked to fly over a pre football game event tent two hours before the game. I was swarmed by 8 officers who demanded I land it. I did as they asked and then they asked for my ID which I did show them. Then they said...

    If you ever wondered if a P3 can be restarted in mid flight.......

    This tells me that they need to design a fail safe that when the unit is upside down to deploy parachute from bottom. Maybe instead of sensor on bottom a fail safe parachute pack shoots out 12-18 inches and deploys chute.

    Uncontrolled descent

    Mine crashed into a lake. And after about an hour retrieved it. Shook the hell out of it to drain all water. Left in extremely hot car 3 days to evaporate as much other water. Day 5 put new battery in it all motors and blades worked fine but one. Replaced one motor and works great!!!!
