    John Deere Green

    Wow...those are all good but I especially like the last one. Is it hdr?

    Range extenders

    If you are responding to me, I wasn't specifically responding to you. I was simply asking a couple of curiosity questions. I thought I read where the FAA guidelines "required" one to maintain a line of sight with their drone while flying. I was just checking to see if I am missing something...

    Range extenders

    I'm curious about a couple of things: 1. What limits one to about a half mile or so range? I've flown mine out to nearly .6 miles and nothing limited me except the line of sight requirement, which brings me to my next question: 2. I've had mine out, as I said, about .6 miles and could barely...

    Landlocked fishing pier on Dauphin Island Al.

    99% of "scientists" say it'll be underwater in a few years. So....catch the rising tide....

    Panic time today

    About the second or third day after I bought my drone I was flying it nearly 1/2 mile away and experienced the same thing you did. I had a 15 second panic attack but fortunately it reconnected 30 seconds or so later and was already returning to home. What a relief! It also disconnected...

    Flying apps

    I'm looking at it right now on my iPhone and it can't be more than 50 feet off, but that's inside my house. I'll check it a few times over the next several days as I'll be moving around a bit. Mine gives a fairly detailed map so I know immediately if I'm in a good spot or if it's off.

    Flying apps

    I haven't tried Airspace but so far I have found B4UFly to be accurate. Is it possible/probable that Rixxie33's GPS on his mobile device is off? Just wondering....

    Hello from West Central (Gulf Coast-Homosassa), Florida

    Based on my experience, if you hear "electrical interference" you'd be wise to get the bird on the ground.

    Best battery prices?

    I'm probably looking in the wrong place but I don't see those.

    Best battery prices?

    I don't remember but Best Buy will only honor prices from certain sellers and/or those fulfilled by Amazon.

    Best battery prices?

    I picked up one for $98 at Best Buy based on a price match with Amazon. I think it was back in late Jan./early Feb.

    Tilted Horizon - How common?

    I do. I first noticed it after an operator-error crash. Mine has to be corrected to about -2.6. The most aggravating thing is it has to be adjusted each time the battery is changed.

    Wireless dog fence

    Flew for about a total of an hour yesterday with no apparent issues, taking off and landing numerous times. I even calibrated my XSP within the coverage area of the wireless fence. No issues.

    Wireless dog fence

    If it was wired I wouldn't be as concerned....I'd just do my best to stay a ways from the wire. But...mine is wireless with a unit sitting in my house casting a "fence" in a radius from the unit. It creates a "dome" around part of the yard and my XSP would normally be taking off and landing...
