    1st Drone

    Thank you for the response. I figured it out. Flew about 5 times and it failed. On to "2nd Drone", a MAVIC Air. Many many flights under that one and crisp videos from 400 ft. I'm hooked.

    Opinion on Mavic Air

    Restricted on where based on the type or capability of the device? I’d be considered a hobbyist, just for fun, not for profit. Don’t live near an airport, military base, etc.

    Opinion on Mavic Air

    Doesn’t sound like anyone owns an Eachine E511S. Having a issue and with no support network I’m afraid it’s going back. Didn’t last but a couple weeks. Before laying out the cash, what’s the scoop on the Mavic Air? Reliable? The E511S was fun while I it lasted, but the 4K video and extended...

    DJI Drone for Filming

    I have a Eachine E511S for a couple weeks now and last time out it hovered 5 ft but landed when I hit the video button and haven’t left the ground since. Seems under powered and only raises one side off the ground. Now one blade is no longer turning. Long intro to say I’ve had my eye on the...

    Newbie Question

    Found a video where the guy walked through everything from the box to controls and buttons, how to do the video, prep for flight and the auto maneuvers. A bit long but very enlightening. Went out and used the camera for the first time this morning. Very cool.

    This is what the swiss call a drone

    Good point! I’ve seen military drones displayed and they are always huge. I guess most associate “drone” the hobby and/or toys.

    Newbie Question

    Thank you. That is what I was expecting but is not happening. Thought perhaps there was a button sequence for the drone to beacon for 30 seconds or something.

    Newbie Question

    Bought an Eachine E511S and am impressed I was able to make it through my first flight in one piece. I was getting excited about the Mavic Air but figured that was a bit much coin for a look see. The E511S appeared to have a lot of the same features at a fraction of the cost. 2 flights in and...

    Hope that’s politically correct. Bought an Eachine E511S and am impressed I was able to make it through my first flight in one piece. I was getting excited about the Mavic Air but figured that was a bit much coin for a look see. The E511S appeared to have a lot of the same features at a...
