    F181W really bad pull after motor replacement

    Given that the motor you swapped in isn't a match for the other three I'd suggest swapping out the other three so you're running matching motors.

    HS 160 Shadow help.

    Holy Stone: No fly zones?

    While not a veteran by any stretch I've owned two Holy Stone drones. My first was the HS110 and now I'm flying the HS720. I live and fly within 2 miles (more like 1.25 as the crow fly's) of a state / public airfield and have never had this problem. Verify that the WiFi is connected and that...

    Interesting optical illusion

    I've experienced an interesting optical illusion / phenomenon on a few occasions. Drone flying above 200' and maybe 1/4 mile down range. Flying UP or flying AWAY both look the same - Flying DOWN or flying INBOUND look the same..... Anyone else experience this?
