Went really high with my drone today!

Since we have really light winds today, I took my drone there again today.

Very cool, my dear Archae! CaliforniaPeggy Sep 2019 #1

Did you have to register your drone with the FAA? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #2

Since my drone only goes less than 100 feet up, no, I don't have to register it. Archae Sep 2019 #3

It sure looks like fun! I think you're getting better control with directions and such, too.

Keep at it!

I know they have some requirements but I don't remember which drones they apply to. I'm thinking of getting one but I will not film my kitchen.

And the nearest airport is 10 miles away.

I call my kitchen my "Media Room" since I have my TV, videogames, stereo etc in it, and can sit back on the office chair and use the computer, watch TV, get a snack, etc.
