    Stupid regulations ...everywhere

    Corruption? In Government? Now you are just blowing smoke.. Philippines perhaps but that would never happen here.

    Completely OT to Multirotor forums and RC, but I just HAVE to share this

    I counted at least 11. Probably missed one or two but the edit must have been a nightmare.

    Drone Pilots Association

    The only problem I have is I AM a hobbyist and I don't fly a "drone". I have a firm belief that anyone who flies a "drone" see themselves as above all the hobbyist or some sort of para-militarist. The negative connotations alone should want any of us to see the word stricken from the dictionary...

    Drone Pilots Association

    I believe you are wrong in that respect. People are led by the media who will never stop using the word drone as long as it gets a watchers attention and the "drone" label will ALWAYS be associated with the military. "It's my personal opinion that any industry group should be lead by...

    Commercial sUAS petition is live at Whitehouse.gov

    My favorite argument is the Bow and Arrow and Fire. Upon being invented the board of governors convened and declared; "These shall not be allowed because the arrow could put somebody's eye out and the fire hurts my fingers". There is no room for tecnlogical advances in a bureaucracy if the...

    DJI is going to release its DropSafe parachute system

    Does this mean they stopped taking the bugs out of the algorithm? :hopelessness: Maybe we should just follow it around with a big fishing net. :cold: Sorry, just a bit of sarcastic humor. I applaud the effort and it's not the first but I agree, I will not be surprised if it is the most costly.

    Naze32 Full Sensor

    I just finished programing, (somewhat), my first Naze32 with the Baseflight Configurator and the help of roughly a dozen people. Programming is not my thing and I learned that early on. There are plenty of tutorials and in them you will find conflicting statements and dead end web links. After...

    MultiWii / NAZE / SP Racing F3 Multiwii or NAZE32

    I have no idea what the difference may be but I just finished programing my first Naze32 with the Baseflight Configurator and the help of roughly a dozen people. Programming is not my thing and I learned that early on. There are plenty of tutorials and in them you will find conflicting...

    NOTAM - Greater Los Angeles Area

    The same way the rest of us do, on the AMA website. Of course, you have to check it daily for updates. You can also get updated by the FAA at https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/PilotWeb/ or; http://notams.aim.faa.gov/notamSearch/ Of course if you don't know what to look for you may never find it...

    Hobbyking Lipo's.

    I have several different ones and I see less puffing with the Zippy's. My Nano's have the most puffing in fact one looked like a baloney and I got rid of it. (OK,, I haven't been the best "battery parent" one can be.)

    Welcome to Multi's and just like Heli's, don't get accustomed to your wallet staying in your pocket.

    Another near miss between helicopter and "drone"

    It's all about "eyeball time". If the byline doesn't capture the attention no one will read it and we all know how important it is to "get the widow on the set". The media whores are all the same and are not likely to change. It's incumbent upon us to promote responsibility and safety and work...

    Tiger-Motors U8 + 28x9,2 props

    You gentlemen are amazing but this is way too much science for me. I just want to fly it. If I get it to take off and stay in the air for 15 min, or before my legs give out, I'm a happy flyer. Keep up the weird science. I'm sure you are helping lots of people. I'm just too stupid, or lazy, to...

    Two drones almost collide with NYPD chopper

    I don't disagree that this whole thing is blown out of proportion but fact is, they are flying in a urban area. There are very few of us who will not agree that is a bad idea for so many reasons. That fact alone should belay any thoughts that they are being maligned. I see this as just one...
