I bought it to use on my golf course, which I did but when I took over a new course they do not allow the use of drones due to the Zoo being right across the street. so now it just sits. I think it best to get rid...

    No, wait... they were DJI? No way... are you sure?

    So its the headlines fault instead of the stupid non-compliant drone operator? And don't tell me that little drone can do no damage, if it was at peak flight and died and fell from the sky in a high tourist area it would most likely injure a tourist, possibly a kid or infant. Its out of...

    Good News -> MAJOR Update for Typhoon H expected on January 1st

    Please educate me (seriously). What is the issue with having the low battery warning pop up? I only fly my drone on my golf course when there are very few people around and constantly fly until I get the warning. I mainly practice taking video doing fly runs down my fairways at different...
