how often and for how long do you fly

[NRRTRAINS]

i don't know if this question was ever asked . how often and for how long do you fly mostly in one day ?
thank you

 

[Spark 317]

I try to fly at least once per day weather permitting.

I take my Spark with me to work and may fly it there or on my way home if something Sparks my interest, like the field of sunflowers I saw when taking a different way home last week .???

it must be nice to fly in all different places . i live in new york city , staten island . we have only one legal place to fly and when the president goes to one of his golf getaways all through the summer like two weeks ago and last weekend and the next week for ten days we fall into the 30 nautical mile limit and it becomes a NFZ .

I fly usually on weekends. I have 3 batteries and the DJI Portable Charger which makes it 6~7 batteries effectively. But I mostly fly 3~4 batteries on a single day. Summer has been extremely hot this year in Japan and at ambient temperature of 35°C (95°F) I find the battery getting heated up to 55°C (131°F). So I guess that will be a key factor to consider in the coming days.

As long as I can whenever I can.

Wish I could fly daily but typically twice a week.

Are you able to charge the portable charger via usb? I cannot get mine to work other than via the mains

I have seen a lot of places I'd like to fly on my way home from work. Any suggestions on how to store your batteries while in work. The car get roasting hot during the day.

I take it with me inside.

Sometimes I'll fly on my lunch break.

I've only had my spark for a couple weeks now, but I try to fly at least 2-3 times a week and on the weekend. I'm an HVAC tech and it's summer so I don't get home till late some days.

A few times a week. Sometimes for just a minute, sometimes all 3 batteries run down.

I've thought to take it to work and fly on the way home, but by 5, I'm pretty beat and need a nap.

2 hours to Thursday Night Live!

Do you mean the micro-USB port on the charger? That's given for firmware updates, not for charging.

 

[pmshop]

73 flights with 15 hours last month....but I can quit whenever I want to

Yep, that port. Thanks.

Haven’t flown much in a while. I like to have something of interest to photograph.

Purchased a Parrot Mambo so I can at least fly inside and have some fun when the weather is no good for Sparky! (The Mambo is pretty good outside also!!!)
