    Newbie drone pilot from Oregon, USA

    Welcome from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA. As a New Drone Pilot, there are a couple of Legal Things you may need to do… If you have not already done so, you will need to get your TRUST Certificate. You can get that at the Pilot Institute Web Site (FREE…). Your Drone weighs less...

    Been flying since Christmas

    I also google this and it appears that you can only control the tilt speed by controlling your thumb on the tilt wheel, just thumb it slower… One of my friends when I lived in Arizona was Leroy Godden, He was in his late 70s and he was classified as a "Pioneer" a citizen who was born when...

    Been flying since Christmas

    Welcome from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA. Nice video, I am glad you are happy with your HS. As you mentioned there is a lot of bad press and as you read through the various postings from HS flyers, one thing that stick out is the lack of support when you do have an issue…. At...

    Hello from Newbie Drone Pilot in Scotland

    Welcome from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA. Unfortunately, MicroSD Cards are a micro piece of hardware and have no moving parts. Many reasons can make a card go bad: physical damage (like bending, dropping, or water exposure), improper removal from a device, extreme temperatures...

    Is this a good place to ask business questions?

    I imagine it all depends on the pilot. Since the Part 107 Certification does not requires a "Driver's test..." there are folks who have the 107, but no drone... Keep all controllers in the same mode and practice, practice until you fly with muscle memory. Otherwise, just be glad that a GPS...

    Is this a good place to ask business questions?

    Welcome from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA. I would not say that this web site is a bad site to ask you questions, as many members are also professionals who are also in the business, but each one, each location, is uniquely unique… With that being said, "What's good for the Goose...

    Hello from Eastvale

    Welcome from the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA. You did write that you were still fairly new to flying so please excuse my, perhaps over the top, notes, but you would be surprised at the folks who are studying for the 107, but have yet to acquire the TRUST and have no intention to...
