I find that I really enjoy this style of scenic footage over the aerial variety.

I would certainly hope so! You know you're addicted to quads when you pay more attention to the quad in the air than the building fire going on.

Wow! $5K for that bird.

Glad that I do not live over there. I am fortunate to have a good sized backyard and have permission to fly in the backyard of my neighbor and since I fly FPV freestyle and gate shooting, I don't go above the tree canopy.

On my way to pick up an order and there was a fire going on at a local "Irish Pub" and I immediately caught the buzz of a drone over head taking pictures. On my way back to my car I saw it on it's way to land and I saw the pilot and spotter from one of the news channels After it takes off...

I vaguely remember this.

Well, at the rate I'm blowing FETs on my flight controller, I will be a master as soldering when I get the order of 100 the little buggers and start replacing them. Two victims in as many days.

Fair enough and welcome to the board!

Sounds more like "If I lose it and it hits something/one, it's not tied to me so I don't have to be responsible for the damage." but that could just be me. Something that large with spinning swords should be registered and be used responsibly.

Rule #1 Do not try soldering when irritated or pissed off. Got up this morning earlier than usual, so I watched a soldering video, fired up the iron and with the use of my helping hands (only used one clip yesterday) I was able to solder the joints in about a minute. Hopped into BF, made the...

Yea, so I am noticing. Wonder if there are classes somewhere around. Where did you get your board?

I agree. I have a backup board but I'm shitty at soldering (not the right gear) and couldn't solder the battery plug on.

Aaaaaannndddd it's dead. Got set up to fly outside, got everything going, armed and away I went. Had a mild crash in the grass and when I collected and rearmed (motor stop off) I noticed one motor not spinning and a smell. Thought a motor went out, so I changed it out with the same results...

I had thought of making something along the lines of a jousting set of challenges, attach a lance to the quad and collect rings or hit targets, etc

Since I don't have hair it would be a scalping.

Agreed. I was planning on heading to the backyard but as I was getting ready the wind picked up to storm levels and the heavens opened up, so I had to test settings in the small confines of my living room. I did a short trip FPV and was amazed how much muscle memory kicked in. Where I was slow...

Bit of a repost but wanted to update this. Where There Is A Will…. As I mentioned in my previous post, I had a vision issue with the Eachine VR-oo7 goggles where it was too close to be able to focus, and all I had to do was find a way to move them away from my face far enough to allow my...

Necessity being the mother of inventon I put my McGyvering skills to use. I got into the goggles and removed the magnifyer, no improvement to my inability to focus. I needed to put some more distance between my eyes and the view. Enter my $1 VR headset. I reverse engineered it and removed all...

It's a Betaflight Omnibus 3.1.7 (if that was what your asking)
