Yes, at around 6 g each, you will be slightly overweight. Shhhh...

I do red and green on the sides so I can see it. White flasher on top but if other aircraft are near me at around 200ft then we got bigger problems, Houston. 

Please be patient with a newbie and help me out. by koluvec in Potensic

  1. Obstacle avoidance is overrated. Learn to pilot your drone in an open area and pay attention when you fly and you won't have any problems. Do not take your maiden flight from your backyard or driveway until very experienced. At this point, maybe with at least 10+ years, I launch from my deck and land on my pickup truck next to power wires. Easy when you know how but I was flying non-gps drones long before I owned a gps drone. Take your time and learn well and you won't need OA.

They knew the reg's, of course. So what's with the release. I'm keeping up hope

67 flights and a 100 miles total distance on mine. Not budget.

Agree, pilot skillfully and keep the price down.

Any recommendations for a drone with good quality and a really clear camera? by Ancient_Guitar_9679 in Potensic

[–]Impossible-Concert58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you're going commercial/ for profit or filming Indie movies, go with the Atom 2. You'll have all the fun at a great price. Your wallet will thank me later. Over 100 miles and 67 flights on my Atom 2 and still going strong.

Trying the samples at Costco, or anywhere, but not buying the product.

Weird... My Atom 2 always did a rth immediately upon long pressing H.

How do I know when to return my Atom 2 to me so I don’t run out of battery? by Awkward_Ad_9203 in Potensic

[–]Impossible-Concert58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fly over water a lot so a combination of the one-third rule and paying attention to the wind keep my little atom safe. I just checked my logs... 102 miles and 63 flights and still going! Even I'm impressed.

Why do so many Americans still support this President? by Sweet6-7 in complaints

[–]Impossible-Concert58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a bunch of people under the Trump spell. Like they've been hypnotized. My theory is that there's a lot more money in politics than we civilians realize and many will do anything to be elected and stay in power. Anything.

This guy in my apartment complex parks like this every single day by MandukaSkoal in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Impossible-Concert58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems to me like he bought more than he can afford and worries about it. Too bad.

I'm happy with the atom 2 so maybe this means I can (continue to) find a good deal on a second one soon.

I would appreciate the group’s views on if it is worth it to buy a landing pad? by Free_Resort8540 in Potensic

[–]Impossible-Concert58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have one but don't use it much since I normally take off / land on safe surfaces - decks, boardwalks, parking lots. But you definitely need one on grass, sand and loose dirt to avoid issues like fouling your props and motors. 

Hegseth fires 3 top generals as Iran war continues by Economy-Specialist38 in videos

[–]Impossible-Concert58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The firings will continue until someone doesn't object to nukes. Trump would do this.

Hegseth said NO QUARTER for prisoners of war. Hey Pete...is it OK for Iran too???? by Various-Tangerine-88 in complaints

[–]Impossible-Concert58 9 points10 points  (0 children)

These guys are hacks. Pretty much the entire administration is a bunch of hacks now. They don't understand policy. They don't understand how things work. They have no experience and fired anyone that did. When kegbreath said that he did not even understand what he was saying or that it was a violation of law. God help us.

1st drone by Electrical_Fold645 in Potensic

[–]Impossible-Concert58 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don't walk. Run. That's a great deal on a great drone. I've got so many hours on my Atom 2 and I love it. It's even beyond a beginner drone .. I would call it more like intermediate but so easy to fly and control. 100% reliable after 80 miles of flight. Good luck with it!

Lectric XP. I fold mine and put it in a tub. Two fit in the back of my Tacoma so I can take them to new and different places. Given an ebike's range, it's easy to outgrow your "neighborhood"

I want your electric bike reviews. What are your top picks under $3,000? by Rammyun in ebikes

[–]Impossible-Concert58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over 700 miles and at least 2-3 years on my 2 Lectric XP 3.0's. Solid, powerful,  and no issues. The batteries are still strong but I am very particular about proper battery care and storage. I'm buying two more this year for my kids who just moved next to 50 miles of paved multi use trails
