I read recently that the police in my town bought two drones for $37K. One is meant to be able to be able to fly out over the nearby lake and drop a life preserver. I'm not sure what the other was for. I'm all about our boys in blue having the gear they need, but when I see 37K for two drones, I...

Hmm. I haven't had that happen, but only played with Freerider for a night or two before switching over to Liftoff.

It's all good either way, Hal. I actually have a pink/purple-theme I'm thinking about because my daughter suggested it would look cool.

Also not an expert, but I've seen multiple posts in different forums saying that you should be away from metal, phones, etc during compass calibration. Not sure how far away is necessary, but I just had to recalibrate my compass yesterday after a crash and it wouldn't calibrate with my phone in...

So has it flown properly before or has it been like this since you got it?

Nice! Really like those handlebars. Multiple hand position options on long rides is not to be underestimated. I've thought about adding a rack for carrying stuff to mine - may look into again as several of my video ideas involve bike trails or are just more easily accessible by bike instead of...

Nice video, we're heading down there in June with a bunch of family and hoping to get some nice footage while there.

Do you mean the sounds in the sim or the sounds on your Taranis?

Thanks, I had fun making it. I really love that bike. It started out as a semi-inexpensive way to get into cycling. It's a hybrid that came with knobby tires because I thought I would use it for on road and off road. I never ended up going off road. For the longest time, I felt like a little...

I may have resembled that monkey recently. :p

I've been thinking about making my arming switch a little safer just to start a good habit. Right now, I simply flip one switch and go. I saw this a while back and am only coming back to thinking about it again. It's not exactly what you were thinking (at least I don't think), but the mixing...

I think you need new glasses, Ren. There's not a drone in that video. :p

I've been considering giving pinch a try to see if it helps with making more fine adjustments, but I think that's only a very small part of my problems. :p

Okay, went had another session at the soccer park today. Mrs. Spork wanted some fresh air, so she came along. I tried to get her to fly, but she was scared of wrecking. :rolleyes: Psssh. I think quadcopter is Swahili for wrecking. My editing skills are a little rusty, but here's today and...

Haven't had that, but I'd say your guess was spot on. Hopefully it's not terribly expensive to fix.

Torc Tray! Love the ingenuity! So does the tray help with flying pinch instead of thumbs? Or is it for another purpose?

Nice. I'll definitely see how it goes for me outside tomorrow.

Great to hear, @Dugdog47 Impressed the little guy flies so well outside. We're supposed to have great weather this weekend, so I may take TinySpork outside tomorrow. Is your FPV monitor attached to your radio with that arm or do you attach to a tripod?

Nice, DA! Can't wait to see more of your antics on video.

Those do look pretty cool.
