WOWOWOW!!! brilliant use of UAV technology..I take it strong interference was caused by the metal ship? My UAV (it was a phantom at the time) wouldn't boot up on top of my car and on a steel reinforced pier

Ive tried Pix 4D, Maps Made Easy and Drone Deploy..the latter is a defininte winner..try it for free and follow the the above flight patterns...easy as pie

Thank You Editor for that very helpful and informative reply. I will definitley pay more attention to the voltage as I had never looked at it. I m also going to completely re-cycle my batteries as Ive flown all of them approx 40 times and Ive never completely discharged them. Ive only ever...

Thank you..Im glad I asked...so when my battery said 10% it was actually 0% is that correct? Just one more question..what should the cell voltage be at when fully charged and at what level cell voltage shoould 30% battery be (thats the level I have the low battery warning set at) thats for...

Hi I got the message that a battery needed a full re-cycle so after I finished flying it there was about 25% on it. I set it on ground with the motors running (no blades attached) watching the % left on the battery. When it got to 10% it switched off!! Very shocked and very glad that it was...

I was being tongue in cheek..but now that youve mentioned it..the VT from Ikopta is actually in £ Sterling...so the cost of the equipment (and he was being conservative re the number of batteries he needs) is actually over $10,000 ...without a case and second controller...

Love it! so the case and second controller..thats bound to put it over the £10k right?

Not sure how it works in USA, but here in UK people often mistakenly state that they are 'Licenced' by the CAA. That is not correct. The CAA do not issue a 'License' to drone pilots, they issue a 'Permission' and they are not the same thing. Pilot (manned aircraft) have licences!

LOL No! Ive just seen this new addition to the software this week. Im not sure I would trust it though. Your quite correct to suggest caution when using it. It would be really useful. Im not sure what will happen though it the UAV goes below the take off point and loses signal..will it...

@IrishSights Would you fly over Cave Hill using it?

Could I be so cheeky as to ask for a copy of your ops manual that refers to the night flying? Im just being really lazy here but if I can ever do anything in return...Id be glad to help

My GO App wont let me in to the camera view on one particular ios device. Ive tried different devices with the app on the 2 different controllers in pilot and slave mode and the problem is definitely the single ipad mini. Ive also tried uninstalling and re-installing the app and hard...
