I have had mixed experiences with flight plans. One flight plan was running low on power whilst out of contact (how did that happen?) and it autonomously made the right choice of aborting and flying directly home. On another occasion, it was on a flight plan that should have been fine (yes it...

I find the shape of the Anafi quite distinctive enough to tell me which way it is facing. I doubt colour will make much of a difference as against a bright sky all drones appear to be dark grey, even my white Mavics! Where I fly the sky is often a fairly uniformly pale grey and backlit by the...

The Wi-Fi in your phone is irrelevant unless you somehow want to fly it badly with just your phone. The controller has Wi-Fi built-in and it does a good job, far better than any phone or tablet can manage.

Indeed that is faulty. VERY faulty. Usually the Anafi picture quality is very good. You might have to go through a few hoops to prove that it is a fault but Parrot service is excellent, this is perhaps because they made a lot and haven't sold as many as they'd hoped to so there is a big pile...

Yes, that makes sense, the upper side shouldn't be very visible to onlookers but it would be visible when it is on the ground. I have got some Day-Glo yellow tape, but it is a bit heavy duty, it would be like putting tractor tyres on a Lotus.

I didn't check the battery level afterwards, I was just relieved to find it before anybody else did.

I can't be sure what the battery level was I just remember thinking to myself that I shouldn't have started it after the screen went black. The awkward part was thinking that it was the golden hour, the 360-degree panorama would be amazing, it just needs a bit of time to complete. I just need to...

This morning one of my Anafis came down short on an emergency RTH. I managed to get myself into a position to see it begin to descend. This was extremely lucky as there didn't appear to be any connection back to my phone. It was about 300 metres away, too far away for anybody who didn't know...

I have deleted video he objects to. If he deletes the attacks on me I can let this rest. If not then I will not be posting anything here again.

You have made six posts here. Three of them are attacks on my character.

I was referring to the attacks on me. This used to be a great place to post.

What has happened to this place?

Do you feel guilty if you look out of a train window and see into somebody's house? Now don't try to justify it, that's not how invasion of privacy works!!!!!! Do you really think that my drone would be spotted by somebody near a bouncy castle before I saw that it was bouncy castle (and so...

Thanks, I might follow up that suggestion.

Couldn't you contact BNFL and show them this video and ask whether they have any concerns about you doing more of the same? As you have already given up on the project what's the worst that could happen? I mean apart from a life sentence for spying.
