Yep, Big Brother is watching. Maybe 30 some years later than Orwell imagined, never the less!

People spouting off about their constitutional rights, as @Ty Pilot mentioned above, the one thing you can be certain of is that they don't have a clue how all of that works. The "me" generation has never been taught, their constitutional rights end where everyone else's begin. Teachers today...

The self contained controller is the main reason I went with the Q500 4k for my first real aircraft.

That has been a sore spot, with Yuneec, for some time. The good news is, there are factory authorized service providers, such as Yuneec Skins, and Vertigo Drones, both are good.

Im haveing problems with data pilot and uav toolbox crashing. I have uavtoolbox installed on my ST16 and laptop. I have data pilot on my laptop, and also an android emulator. Data Pilot wont even boot up. UAV toolbox on my ST16 crashes when I try to plan a mission, and the mission block on my...

The U S is not the only Country which celebrates this day. It is know by different names, ie. Remembrance Day in Canada, Armistice Day in Great Britain and France. How many Members are Veterans, no matter what Country you served? I am Us Army. I thank all of you, who are Veterans.

To see what it would send, if anything.

Has anyone tried to use a Blue Tooth dongle with their st16?

The Q500 is an easy and fairly forgiving aircraft to fly, and ST10+ controller is relatively easy to use. I would say yes.

Finding performance data for most consumer level sUAS is a problem, mostly I think, because most of the manufacturers consider them toys. if you want to get an idea of what altitude and temperature has on aircraft performance, do a search for a Cessna 150 or 172. The data will show you the...

I would like to include clouds and for the same reason, icing. Clouds are moist air and are visable because the ambient temperature and the dew point are very close together.

Very nice video. Acouple of places, it looked like he could have encountered some icing conditions, Increasing pitch angle is one way to compensate for thinner air.

I haven't tried to search it, I know the Q500 4K above 8000' MSL is not recommended. That being said, a person, if they are concerned, should do their Density Altitude calculations, keeping in mind that ambient temperature plays a large part in that.

Go back into your flight training and read about density altitude. Temperature, besides altitude all play a role in aircraft performance. I'm not sure about the H, but the book for my Q500 4K said to stay below 8000 ft MSL.

Got it. Thank you.
