this why learning to fly with GPS is dangerous. "commercial" operators are ruining the hobby  mad.gif . as always, i blame DJI and their drone enthusiast community as well.  hmm.gif

Nothing you can do about it, that why i prefer to fly fix wing/plane because mother nature give extra lift rather than flying brick trying to fight gravity on all 4x props. flex.gif

I have seen bird attacking drone. Try dodging that even with FPV. The only way stopping drone from coming down fast when there is a failure, is parachute.

I remember there was an eagle beside the beach attacking my rc jet, lucky manage to out run it because its an F-18. bruce.gif

im actually eyeing on skyzone which is below 2k. i thought of dji goggle before but in the end after much thoughts and calculations, i find it not worth in a long run as im sure everyone crash their drone a lot. if every time crash n break the cam, it cost a bomb to replace new 1. its so much cheaper if its analog.
Skyzone is a very good FPV goggle for pro use. I've been replacing my old Boscam FPV goggle with Skyzone SKY02 from last year and gave me lots of modding capability and features.

i ordered the DJI FPV goggle d lol
and now too broke to build a quad  doh.gif

edit: so DJI cancelled all the FPV goggles order coz they put wrong price  doh.gif
back to analog plan

Nothing wrong with analog, you can always upgrade to digital hd on analog FPV google since most have HDMI port input. Just buy Digital HD receiver module with hdmi output an that's it. bruce.gif cool2.gif

you have the best flying area. i'm really jealous. i only have a playground and a field to fly around. which gets boring after a while, in terms of scenery.  sweat.gif

nowadays, i'm only flying indoors with micros. need more flight time with the 4 and 5 inch.  cry.gif

Micro flying is fun too. thumbup.gif
You'll need to go out and survey the area to find big spot to fly. I found more and more place to fly after driving around remote places. biggrin.gif

Hi all sifu, i need some guidance on Drone, I have purchased a DJI, but due to my area is near to the airport, always need to request to unlock zone, which is quite annoying and not always get approved, I need to use it for land construction, is there any good drone that allows to flight without disturbing on the GPS restricted zone? feel free to pm me.

Flying near the airport is a big no no, there's no way you'll unlock it. If you do able to unlock the airport/DCA authority able to detect immediately who is the one who flew it. As a good example two people whom are related to my friend who bought DJI MAVIC 2 flew infront of their home was immediately intercepted by the airport security direct to their home because their house was very close to airport. He don't know how the airport authority able to pin point accurately who is piloting the drone in very dense populated home but suspected the DJI apps may have link and send pilot data to their airport detection system. Because of that they immediate sold off their Mavic. If you do some searching around lots of people caught by them and some are were lucky by given stern warning. Some received love letter from CAAM.

That's why we always build our own drone from open sources. bruce.gif thumbsup.gif
One thing for sure we never flew drone in urban area and always follow the air space rules, we have our own flying ethic.
* Btw i also own a DJI drone too but nah i don't like it.
