    Quad spots Civil War wrecks in Atlantic

    Yes, definitely cool. Maybe it was discovered two years ago, but the video is fresh. I think it's cool that kind of stuff is still "discoverable" - meaning it hasn't been salvaged/looted for the metal - so the history guys can do their thing.

    How do you like to fly?

    LOL I think it's clear we need a new poll! Please add an option for yanking and banking, FPV, naked, while eating cake. :cool:

    A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon you’re talking about real money.

    First time to complete a circuit on Velocidrone

    Welcome to the forums! I'm pretty sure most or all of us can relate to this :D My wife was pretty tolerant and polite for the first couple months. Now she says stuff like "I'm sure you already told your buddies on the drone forum, so why are you interrupting my show. Again". My other favorite...

    And Life Hits the Brakes

    The one or two friends of mine that actually get refunds don't seem to mind. Although, I feel like they are silly for giving Uncle Sam an interest free loan.

    So Where the Heck Am I?

    I think the elephants standing on the cosmic turtle is a tad more realistic than the earth just sitting right on the turtle's shell :D Oh, and I wasn't mocking anyone in particular - just riffing off Moz. I originally heard the elephants and turtle story from Discworld and later learned it was...

    Nice video - really like the bw/color switch effect.

    So Where the Heck Am I?

    Yes, it's a great vantage point to see those turtles all the way down.

    Let's Try Food & Drink now!

    Next time for sure, he didn't feel like cooking more brisket. He was like "imagine how good filet would be". I said "let's get some more practice on brisket and chicken first". The creme brule was as bad as the brisket was good. Flavor was there, but consistency-wise more like sweet milk than...

    Let's Try Food & Drink now!

    Like many of you (probably) I hadn't heard of "sous vide" before Spork Junior asked for one for Christmas - it's essentially low-temperature cooking in a water bath - food in a bag. Previously he tried poaching eggs, interesting but not very different than regular poached eggs. Last night he...

    Spork's Journey

    Been awhile since I've updated this. I've been crazy busy at work lately and I'm just starting to feel that I sort of know what I'm doing. Today was the only day I had time to sneak out to fly for a bit, except we have 25+ mph winds on an otherwise beautiful day. Sigh. Soon, soon, maybe it'll be...

    DJI Mavic in Germany

    LOL - I've been to India a few times and you may one day find hamburger deliveries in certain places. Likely mutton or veggie burgers will be more popular. I think the big seller will be drone-delivered alcohol in non-alcoholic states. Easy enough to get black market deliveries - but one click...

    DJI: Here is our solution to all customer service problem

    Plus (with some/most) it's all about the scripts. When they are rated by how well they stick to the script, you can end up with bad experiences.

    DJI Mavic in Germany

    While interesting, I'm not sure what this post has to do with DJI Mavics or Germany.

    So Where the Heck Am I?

    I'm thinking if you have a distance indicator, then you have GPS and probably good RTH functionality. In the case Doc is talking about, the assumption is that you don't have GPS on an FPV racer, therefore no distance indication.

    Eachine Wizard, awesome or hype?

    I vote on the awesome side for Joshua Bardwell. Same reasons as the Doc - not too many topics around quads that JB hasn't covered or regularly covers with updates.

    And Life Hits the Brakes

    I have a love/hate relationship with the tax man. Well, mostly hate. Okay, fine, it's all hate. :p

    Suggestion Drone Project

    Awesome, thanks! I'd seen litchi mentioned but never looked at what it can do - thats very cool and I'll be looking into it more.
