thanks for the heads up!! When I click on the OP $159 deal, I do not see the 3dr packback. Am I in the wrong spot?

May want to check for TFRs

Thanks for the heads up P2P. I had a similar experience the other day when Solo (2.4) gave me a little excitement when it went into fly:manual mode during a MPCC. I was able to recover and land safely. The tlog showed compass and horizontal variance alerts. I always let Solo remain still...

I ordered a Solo V2 shield yesterday morning. I used the promo code 3DRPGPSV2 and it worked for me.

I performed a few compass and level cals after the 2.4.0 update. Using Android. Just prior to every takeoff I received the "Uneven Surface" and "Calibrating Sensors" alerts. I do not get these with my other Solo using 2.3. The alerts go away in about 10 seconds. Tech support told me the...

The FAA has published a draft of the Certification Standards here: https://www.faa.gov/training_testing/testing/acs/media/uas_acs.pdf This provides an overall view of what they may test for. The FAA has also published a sample exam here...

I called my local Airman KTC last week to inquire about how to go about signing up to take the Knowledge Test. I got the impression they are still somewhat behind the curve on exactly what to expect, but they provided the email of the company, CATS in my area, to contact for pre-registration...

Thanks Jubalr, If Tlogs were played back in MP would a RTH alert appear, or perhaps another parm to look at for RTH?

If one wanted to just look at the HDOP and number of satellites, isn't that info in the tlogs on the device (android anyway)

Thanks for the video. I have not tried zipline yet, but the video will help me get started when the app is available on android. It appears that the angle of the flight path is 90 minus the indicated camera angle. The video at the 1 minute 30 second mark shows a camera angle of 68 deg, which...

Thank you very much for the link EyeWingsuit, I may have misunderstood the intent of the article, or I just do not see the test questions

EyeWingsuit, have you have the chance to create Part 6? Thanks very much

The props are appear to me to be in the correct location, but check out the directional arrows on the starboard side. They are not pointed in the correct direction.

I am using the Galaxy Tab S2 and it fits into the holder provided. I do like the device and as others have mentioned it is bright. I have the 3DR hood too, but I sill experience some glare. Could be from the protective cover, have not tried it without it. The Tab S2 is not on the recommended...
