    Parks and Recreation

    I believe FAA has ruled that National Parks, Airports (with some caveats),and some other FAA designated places such as forest fires or temporary emergency areas are FAA ‘no fly zones’. However local and state laws do not control National Airspace and may not take precedence over federal law.

    Paco, Did you ever get a chance to follow-up on idea of using SOLO battery connector & Arduino to use alternate battery? Joe Homer

    Is it not true that FAA has said none of these state and local laws, regulations are valid because they are superseded by federal control of the National Airspace?

    Using compass which is included with some brands of upgrade U -Blox M8N GPS.

    USMC86, Thanks for expansions on your remarks. Sorry to seem so dim. It’s much clearer now but I see HERE GPS is not available at the moment. There is another Neo M8N for sale at Aliexpress which I may investigate. Cheers. Joe Homer

    USMC86, I’m not quite clear what you mean by “HERE GPS is not detectable “. Do you mean that when using the compass of the HERE GPS you cannot see any difference between that and the original SOLO leg compass? JWH

    Who has experience with converting their from old SOLO leg compass to one of those included with their replacement GPS? I am thinking of replacing damaged leg-type compass with an upgrade GPS/compass. Any observations, comments, or insults? Thanks, Joe Homer

    Who has experience using compass included with some iterations of u-Blox M8N GPS such as from E-bay or AliExpress instead of original SOLO leg compass? I ask because I am thinking of switching from leg compass to other type. Any observations,suggestions, or insults? Thanks, Joe Homer
