Not sure if this would help, but there is a company in the USA that builds custom foam inserts for cases (or backpacks). If you have an idea, you could layout the insert on the website and have something unique that would work. Not sure what the shipping costs would be, but it's basically a...

We (US citizens) don't have to register the NEO with the FAA as a recreational flyer since it is under 250 grams. I'm guessing you wouldn't have to. RID is not required. You should take the TRUST test and keep a copy with you when you fly. It's a free no fail test that covers the basics of...

Hello from the Crossroads of America panzo. Nice to meet you Panos. 🤝 Fly into the wind and let it help you on the RTH. Lot of stories of pilots losing the drone when they let the battery level get to a point that it's too far away and may not make it back safely fighting a head wind...

Wow, I should have taken some Dramamine before watching as I suffer motion sickness at times. 🤢 Don't get me wrong, loved the video and thought it was cool to see a fixed wing aircraft and a portable runway for it. I have the N3 goggles and the remote for my NEO (not the FPV) but haven't...

Duuuude. I have one as well. If that doesn't work, I break out the Ouija board for confirmation. :D Thanks for jogging a brain cell. 👍 .

WOW !! :) Very nice indeed. 👍 .

Hello from the Crossroads of America okayest.fpv. Nice to meet you. 🤝 Welcome to the Forum. :cool: .

Hello from the Crossroads of America Torqoholic Nice to meet you. 🤝 I did a quick search and found this...

Same here, except it was a Kawasaki 650 stand up JetSki for me. Me too. By the time inline skates became the new thing, I didn't want to learn again. I put enough laps around that rink that if there were frequent flyer miles awarded, I'd have enough to go to Mars. :D .

Interesting. 🤔 I might have to go buy some Hula Hoops. :D Your course reminded me of an app in 2017 that worked well with DJI drones at the time. Augmented Reality projected a course on your screen and you flew the virtual course high above any obstacles for safety. It was fun with the...

There might be some rebar in the structure that may momentarily affect the compass when passing through. 🤔

Obtaining full satellite coverage in the concrete jungle will take longer, if at all. GPS satellites broadcast a signal from space at different angles, but if the receiver is blocked by trees, buildings, etc. you may have a problem of picking up enough satellites to fly safely at your location...

As mentioned above, it doesn't mater so much nowadays. Although, I've read that old school R/C pilots would power up the transmitter first and then the aircraft to help prevent the possibility of somebody's else's remote connecting to your aircraft if it's turned on first. 🤔 .

Nice shot. 👍 Reminded me of a Simpson's bit. .

I guess I and others didn't have it set correctly. Multiple posts back in the day. https://sparkpilots.com/search/102361/?q=Csc&o=relevance .
