    GPS? We Don't Need No Stinkin' GPS!

    Very useful, I flew all my batteries hard and fast today in Manual, it's a ton more fun than Fly, and turns faster than Drift. I was in open country with trees out at the borders so I maintained plenty of margin for error. But once you get in the groove, and you have mastered 'nose in' flying...

    New Long Range antenna for SOLO

All I got was an invoice. But just a quick tip sheet on...

    First look......the new WG gimbal ontop the 3DR solo!!!

    I'll be getting one of these, will come in handy with my other sports. With the solo in view, it really demonstrates how well the gimbal irons out those screeching halts and direction changes etc.

    New Florida Law Eff. 07/01/15 Bans Recording Drones

    The police should not have to be involved themselves because it is a civil matter, they can help keep the peace while all 'upset' parties are present, tell you your options, and then they should leave, (unless a crime was committed in the process). I am assuming here, but if the plaintiff...

    New Florida Law Eff. 07/01/15 Bans Recording Drones

    If you're just using it for FPV and not recording anyone where they have an expectation to privacy, you're good... as it's written today.... in Florida, I haven't compared to other state laws. I think they are just trying to get people to respect other people's privacy and hopefully deter...

    New Florida Law Eff. 07/01/15 Bans Recording Drones

    We all know the basic rules of lawful operation of Solo. Not within 5 miles of an airport, remain in LOS, no higher than 400 ft. Don't fly over stadiums or people, etc... As of July 1st we now have a, out flying in public, law in place that basically states an operator cannot record any private...

    Awesome, thanks for putting that together! Did we determine if that carbon black in the plastic was an issue of concern?

    Awesome First Flight Since Update, Video, and a new friend.

    Roger that, I wrote down those numbers ;) I was distracted with a LOT of questions from my unexpected visitor, so I didn't pull down the telemetry panel lol. I was just happy to not lose gps or video. Next time I'll be out practicing manual and stabilize, I hope to make those my default modes...
