    Sea Kayak - Beverly Harbour

    So Myspark53. I actually have clearance from Beverly airport as long as I stayed under 200ft. So no under the radar. I have my part 107 certificate and I do play by all the rules.

    Get Out and Fly

    Pretty cold here in the eastern USA but still find a few minutes to fly and take pics and the spark is just the drone to do it.

    Part 101E

    just wanted to clarify that some of the people who read these think what is said here is gospel. Wanted to make sure that people understand ultimate responsibility lies with us the Part 107A certified pilots. As far as Air map I use it all the time as my starting point for all my flights but in...

    Part 101E

    you are still responsible to keep out of the way of any helicopters. Right of way is to the helicopters not the drone. So still your responsibility. don't count on the app for everything it's there to provide assistance not end all be all.

    Part 101E

    This has to due with the new FAA bill passed back a few months ago. Airmap sent out a new app build based on what these new regulations about a week ago.

    A better B4UFly

    I use AIRMAP as my main verification but also have Kittyhawk available as well. Also like to point out that in NC if you are flying for commercial use you have to obtain an additional NC state drone certification to go along with your PART 107 certification. Simple 25 question on line test that...

    AMA Says 5 Mile Radius Notifications Removed With Latest Legislation?

    FishingSpark see below maybe this clears things up. In your scenario, the sUAS remote pilot would have to comply with Part 107, including§ 107.43, “Operation in the vicinity of airports,” which states that “[n]o person may operate a small unmanned aircraft in a manner that interferes with...

    Anyone tried nolimitdronez.com?

    I think we all better get used to it with the new FAA bill that just passed I think we will start to see the FAA require drone manufacturers to install a transponder type device within there drones with in the next few years. This will better allow the FAA to see air traffic at much lower levels...

    AMA Says 5 Mile Radius Notifications Removed With Latest Legislation?

    I would have to disagree with that statement. What happens now is that the "NEW" LAANC system is in place (if your location has it enabled) to allow for drones to request and to fly below specific altitudes within that 5 mile radius with prior electronic authorization through the LAANC system...

    how to set radar and what parameter controls the gimbal speed

    You should not have to reset the gimbal speed every time you fly? I have set mine to 14 from the factory set 40 I think it was. I set it one time and forget about it. I found for what I do most want nice smooth video/photo the slower gimbal speed really makes a difference. But I have never had...

    Part 107 Cert

    I used Remote Pilot 101, passed first time and Jason does a great job making the learning east to understand and with life time instruction. I’m about to study for my recertification, Remote 101 has already added a entire new learning path for the recertification. Highly recommend we have 3...
