LOL! I've been crazy busy getting up to speed with the new job, so not around much last few days. I've started thinking maybe I want to buy a Tiny Whoop sized critter to fly indoors and build a 3" to start off with outside instead of the 5". We'll see.

LOL - Hope not, but probably true. I guess I feel young now at 51. I'll take "Things That You Never Thought You Would Say" for $500, please.

Reminds me of when we thought amber screens were "the thing" because we were sick of green. Those shoe boxes of 5 1/4" floppy disks have long hit the trash/recycle pile. The weekend before last, my wife and I cleaned out some closets that have not seen light in their back corners since we...

For just pictures, any size will do. I would get something like this: 8GB Micro SD (Amazon) that will allow you to take plenty of pictures, while still large/fast enough to be pretty useful for video in case you change your mind or just want to try it out. Or this 16GB one that includes the SD...

Have a look through the many other threads where people are looking for similar. Jackson and others have made a lot of suggestions and posted review/shopping links for a lot of great quads at different price points.

I can just imagine my wife’s reaction when my controller says “That’s the way I like it, baby”.

No problem at all Roger.

Yep, I wouldn't even worry too much about getting the computer science vs. engineering degree decision correct initially if you choose to start with engineering and decide to get into computer science later. Quite a few of the software engineers I've hired over the years had an engineering...

That's the part of Amazon that I love too, I've gotten so used to 1-2 day shipping and occasionally same day, that I have to remember to adjust my expectations when shopping on other web sites. 5-7 days! What!

Thanks, I figured why not while waiting on stuff to download and install. Yes, I think the update I did included the Amber sound pack. Right now, the only time I hate her is when she relentlessly complains about some trivial thing called "low battery". I get it Amber, it's time to take a break...

Sure, Roger. It's the bottom side of my Taranis radio. In the first picture, you can see the charger's flap cover on the lower left side of the radio. I installed the charger port, because the battery connector goes straight into a connector on the main circuit board - many reviewers have...

Looks like you have another shopping list then :)

You do not need an FCC license to fly. The main use case for wanting an FCC license is when using non-FCC stamped transmitters - which includes the vast majority of FPV transmitters available. Some will say you don't need one, some say you should. If you decide to go the licensed route, it's a...

Welcome to the forum!

I'd say it looks like a nice upgrade for the price.

No luck on drivers that I can find. For now, I'll just stick with USB and turning off the radio as you mentioned. In other news, I have been flying in Liftoff a LOT since I got the Taranis. Not sure how, but at some point I broke off my momentary switch and after charging the battery for the...

I'm on a Mac, when I press the Upload a File button, I get a Finder window that let's me navigate to and choose the file I want to upload. If you're on Windows, the process should be the same, except an Explorer window (or whatever its called now) instead of a Finder window.

You've got two options depending on the location of the image you're trying to post. There's the Upload a File button: Use this one when you want to upload a file from your computer. There's the Image Button: Use this one when the image lives somewhere on the internet - get the address and...
