    First Time Confronted for Flying my Drone

    Would love to see what shows up on google earth, or just a general google search of the address.

    Canadian SFOC Process

    Gord, funny you should mention about the ROC-A. I took my test on a weekend earlier this month and found my certificate in my mailbox five days later. The efficiency from government blew me away!

    Savannah River Walk - GPS FAIL

    Did you attempt to take off from the ground or use the aircraft case? Have you since flown without compass issues in another area to rule out a problem with the antenna or compass unit itself?

    Well this is embarassing

    Congrats Gord. I'm surprised it only took 15 days.

    Drone crash causes wildfire in Flagstaff, AZ

    Surely the aircraft has to have insurance, no?

    Drone crash causes wildfire in Flagstaff, AZ

    I wonder if, in practice, this has ever happened?

    Drone crash causes wildfire in Flagstaff, AZ

    So if a cessna 152 crashed would they charge the pilot with starting a fire?

    So my P4 Obsidian’s maiden flight was cut short..

    Better to land and pack away to fly another day than stay up, eventually come down involuntarily, and require repair.

    Collision avoidance on P4 Pro

    Depending on the flight mode, there is rear obstacle avoidance, at least on mine anyway.

    And the winner of the P4 Obsidian is....

    Super jealous! I know you'll have a great time with it. Looking forward to reading about your experiences with it.

    Transport Canada Approved Flight Log

    Thanks Jack. That should clarify things for me. Will have a look at it.

    Transport Canada Approved Flight Log

    Not yet. Just starting out learning the craft. I want to do things properly so I am taking a measured approach to this. Even then, it will just be a single operator kind of setup.

    Transport Canada Approved Flight Log

    So I was reading the proposed amendments to CAR regs and noticed a section regarding pilot log books and aircraft maintenance records. Will I need to start keeping supplemental records of all my Phantom 4 Pro+ flights or will the built in log collect enough info?

    Dang It ... glad we have DJI Refresh

    This is what scares me the most. I'm afraid at some point I will not be clearance conscious and clip something. Hopefully I will be able to confirm on camera I have the height, and then go for it. Did you look at the camera at all or just eyeball it from ground position?
