    New Iris +, Never Flown

    The $150.00 was for the IRIS, Black Pearl screen, extra battery, screen shields, range extenders, and gimble. The case would have been extra, if wanted.

    New Iris +, Never Flown

    Ahhh...just saw this reply... I would have to get a price on packaging and shipping through the UPS store here in Reno. Might have to come in 2 packages..1 for the IRIS and another for the gimble and screen.

    New Iris +, Never Flown

    Are you interested in the big case as well? It is nice to have everything in one place and organized. Shipping could be expensive to Florida. If you are interested, and want everything, I'll sell it for $150.00, plus the shipping. It would have to go UPS or FedEx Ground, because of the LIon...

    Believe it or not, yes it is.... ..I never sold it, just kept it around. was going to give it to one of my grandchildren, but they all bought Mavic's. (As did I) Where are you located? Are you interested in the case as well?

    FLY

    Correct me if I am wrong, but...I was under the impression the FAA gave up on requiring the drone be registered. (Except for those drones being used commercially, and then a pilot certificate is also required.)

    TS11A vs. SH11A

    These are sun shields for the SOLO controller. What is the difference between the two? (Other than price!) ( I fly with a Nexus 7 (2013) by ASUS) TOK

    Battery went from 45% to 0% in under 60sec.wtf? Drone is MIA

    Ya know, I am wondering if that isn't true. I bought one of the 'refurb's' from 3DR. The battery that came with it would *not* take a charge. 3DR sent me a replacement. The GPS was the original V1 and didn't even have the 3DR 'improved' GPS shield. I complained about that when I took...

    What's your favorite "mini" drone?

    Well...yes, actually he did. I quote: " But first I'd like to get one of the inexpensive mini drones for practice. " Most people have not ventured into 3D printers yet, so *that* is not an inexpensive mini drone either! (When one considers the $400 to $1000 price tag for a decent 3D printer...

    What's your favorite "mini" drone?

    The Spark looks nice, but cheap? Nope..... I use the Holy Stone, HS170, inside the house, to chase the cats, and outside to teach the neighborhood children to fly a drone. (Much to the chagrin of their parents!. After they learn to fly, guess what their parents are asked to buy for them! :)...
