Ok I will. I bookmarked it and will check it out shortly.

The 502E, only $59.99 Amazon with gps.

I’m definitely stopping headless mode from now on. I just ordered a husban with gps and no headless so it’s sink or swim. Thanks

Yeah that’s a good idea. It will work too as long as I don’t fly it too far away and as long as I’m taking it slow. Thanks

Well that’s how I started flying at first because I didn’t know I had headless mode. As long as I kept it pointing straight in front of me I could fly it around, straight out, left, right, back, circles. But once I changed the heading I was like “oh no” and flew into houses and cars and trees...

I only I have one quad that only beeps four times when you put it in headless mode then the beeping stops. It’s a syma. They should all do that instead of constant beeping.

Hey guys, I’ve made a few threads here since I got my first drone. Unfortunately I’m still using headless mode. Iam very confident flying in headless mode and because I enjoy this new hobby so much, I’m about to purchase my 6th quad. But here’s the catch, this one doesn’t have headless mode...

You rebel you haha! I wouldn’t either if the cost was high but for only $5 for three years, it seems fair. But, I would not purchase a drone that requires registration if it costs an arm and a leg. Also if I owned property where I could fly it without being bothered I might not even register.

I’m not sure what you’re saying. If you’re quad weighs over .55 lbs you must register it. What your link points out is you’re allowed to fly it as long as it’s under 55 lbs. but since yours is over the limit at 1 lb, you’re required to register

Correct! the Holy Stone HS400 weighs like 1 1/2 lbs so that puts it over the limit. I’ve heard of people getting some hefty fines for not registering their stuff. And because you might be flying your quad in an area that is restricted without you knowing about it, not being registered would...

Ok, I got the scoop. We were almost duped lol. Those sites we were on were not faa websites. They were scammers who overcharge by $20 for the three year registration. The correct fee is $5 and I just finished with mine. Here is the real link. https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/

I’m trying to register my quad now and after filling out all the questions and serial #, I go to pay and it says $24.99 What? I have read that it’s $5 to register one. I quickly backed out of registering to come here to find out. Is it $5 or what? Thanks guys,

Yeah I always recalibrate them each time I take off. I’ll take your advice on the emergency stop as well as pbot who said he turns off his transmitter once it’s about on the ground. All these drones have their own quirks. Thanks

Thanks a lot for the info. I think the first one is what I’m talking about. The buzzer you turn on when looking for a lost quad. Do you have the link for that? Thanks again,

I saw someone on another thread who said he has one of those and if you see this thread I have a question for you. I bought one and immediately hated it because it doesn’t land without crashing and flipping over, so I sent it back. Well, their complaint center sent me another one today that was...

I was just saying how a buzzer would have perhaps saved my lost drone. Or maybe put a sticker on it with my phone #, but that’s assuming it landed on the ground and not in a tree. So tell me about this buzzer? I would like to know how to do that.

I can second that about the Holy Stone. I’m just starting in this since Christmas and I’ve already purchased six of them. I i bought the Hs 400 and returned it after flying it. It wouldn’t do flips when I was in headless mode. Don’t know if that’s normal but when I took it out of headless mode...

I know mine was!

that is insane. I like the YouTube video of the husband and his wife who do tons of these reviews so I looked and they have one for this bug 3. They call themselves the RC Saylors. The guy said this quad is his favorite for the “toy” grade class and that it’s really borderline into hobby level...
