Hi @MrDrone96, Thank you for sharing this video, really enjoyed the color grading and mix of ground/aerial shots. Great work! - Chase

Hi @ALFPV, Wow, this is one of the best drone videos I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with us! The transitions and synchronization of the music was epic. I also enjoyed the sharp contrast between the warm golden hour glow on the trees with the coolness of the snow and mountains. If you don't mind sharing, what drone/camera setup was used to make this video? - Chase

Hey Everyone, We recently created a new page outlining the new drone laws in the European Union: https://uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-the-european-union/ - Chase

Hi @Michael Douglass Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! A trip to Egypt sounds incredible, I hope to travel there one day myself. Here are the drone laws that we know about for Egypt: https://uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-egypt/ The drone regulations in Egypt are not very well known due to a lack of information. There have been reports in the past of drones being confiscated upon arrival to the country. The only way to fly in the country is to have prior permission which appears to be impossible. If you have more questions, you can contact the Egypt Civil Air Authorit

Hi @GabbySand, Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! I recommend searching your flight location by using AirMap to see if there is any restrictions/controlled airspace overlying that area. https://app.airmap.com/ Chase

Hi @jpotter, Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! I did look at these locations in the BE4UFLY app and they are legal locations to fly your drone. I think you are referring to the Caution Advisories. These advisories are not restrictions, for example a heliport, stadium, or school will all be marked as caution areas. Now a stadium is restricted when there is an event taking place at the stadium. BE4UFLY list many of these caution areas as the app is used by many hobbyist/new drone pilots. I recommend using AirMap as I have found the application to be the most accurate. When re

Hi @wesley, Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! Carter Caves State Resort Park looks like an incredible place. We do have an aerial photography thread where you can post your drone pictures. You can find that here: https://community.uavcoach.com/forum/28-aerial-photography/ Please feel free to ask us any questions! - Chase

Hi @MrDrone96, Overall this was a great first video and I enjoyed it. Two things I noticed were transitions and color temperature. Some of the transitions cut hard, I recommend using a simple and clean transition like cross dissolve. Transitions will vary depending on the video/story but in most cases you cannot go wrong with the cross dissolve. The tilt reveal was also a nice effect and as you practice more of those reveals, they will become very smooth. If you have upbeat/fast audio for background music then a harder cut transition would work better than cross dissolve. I p

Hi @DataInspector, There are no penalties for letting your Part 107 Certification lapse. The Part 107 does not expire, it must be renewed however if you plan to operate your drone for non-recreational applications. Letting the certification lapse will not prompt you to retake the initial Part 107 exam again. If your certification is not renewed, then you can only operate for recreation until it has been renewed. If you are not using your certification that often, you could let it lapse and then renew once the FAA launches the free online training sometime in March. The other

Hi @PilotAl, Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! It sounds like you have had a great career as a pilot and it is cool to hear that you are now into drones. Please let us know if you have any questions! - Chase

Hi @Mike2002, Congratulations on getting a 90% on your recurrent exam and thank you for your continued support of Drone Pilot Ground School! - Chase

Hi @Cullen, Welcome to the UAV Coach Community Forum! Sounds like you have some great equipment to start out with. The Phantom 4 is a great drone for mapping and from what I have heard, it is a go to drone for mappers due to the mechanical shutter. Best of luck out there and feel free to let us know if you have any questions! Best, Chase
