You’ll want to start with the official FAA website for the most up-to-date info on the 107 license and exam requirements. I’ve used Remote Pilot 101 myself, and it’s a solid prep course that walks you through everything you need to know, plus they have practice tests which helped me a lot. There...

I agree, but I struggled a lot tbh.

What problems do you have? Like do you need an editor with more options? or to be easier to use. I personally use Movavi and I think it's a very good video editing software for pc. You can try it.

You are correct about US obstacle clearance rules.

Unfortunately it didn't "loft" him higher....then release...over the nearest dumpster.

Drone Lives Matter!

Here is a good reference for Li-Po battery storage: BU-702: How to Store Batteries – Battery University I store my batt's at 40% - or 3.8v. If the storage will be prolonged (6 months) I store them individually in zip-lok bags in the fridge. Before use, I'll take them out of the fridge and let...

Unless there is a revenue generating "fine" associated with it....

I ran the "Go" software on my G4 Tab for a month or so. The video was very laggy and jumpy. I finally made the jump to a Nexus 7 and am happy with the change.

I agree...this is nothing but a revenue generator for the gub'mint.

Oh come on! This will be nothing more than a revenue generator for the peckerwoods running this country (into the ground).

Good idea with dual PDB's. I have parallel lipos on a hex. With my palsied soldering skills I'm surprised it hasn't fallen out of the sky already. :)

I have that particular docking station. While it would be easy to conjure up some sort of mounting system on the Inspire, the TX only puts out 200mW. Even with a set of cloverleaf antennas it still only has about a 500 foot range.

As an FAA employee I always find it amusing when local gub'mints try to regulate airspace that they don't own.

If you keep them in the fridge for be sure to use a zip-lock bag or something similar. When you pull them from the fridge the container (zip-lock, tupperware, etc...) will allow the batteries to warm up to ambient temp without condensation forming on them.
