Thinking about building one myself, but that's just 'cause I like to tinker.

Pretty cool, but I always wear overalls, so it would be pointless for me.

I'm not old enough for duck and cover drills.

There's a kid at work astounded that I was alive during events they study in history. "Do you remember anything about the Cuban Missile Crisis?" Well, I was alive then, but my main concerns at the time were digging with toy trucks and not pooping my pants.

I can certainly imagine something like that happening to me. With cameras and dignitaries, something surprising is bound to happen.

Juggling a camera and a remote, I managed to get the silly thing in front of the camera for a few seconds. It's easy to fly as long as there is no camera involved.

How embarrassing.

This is the "Eggsplorer" that was on sale for like $12 a while ago. I figured it would be a ridiculous Easter thing, but I was pleasantly surprised when it came. It seems to be the same plastic as another egg drone with some cute pad printing and no fpv camera. It has altitude hold and 6...

How long? I have an odometer car and used it a couple years ago to make a flier for an open house, but we added lots of track since then, so I really don't know.

I'm autistic and have some sensory processing problems, particularly with hearing and touch. For example, it hurts when my blanket touches my skin and I have to be careful to keep the sheet between it and me or it attacks. I only wear socks because they make shoes tolerable. Cotton is about the...

And those ARE my ten toes.

You rang? It's getting to be spring here. When it warms up a little and I finish up some of the winter projects, I'll get back to training. Been really windy all month so I have done very little flying. Oh, yes: I do trains outside.

Congratulations.

Burr! Freeze my toes.

But he'll freeze his little tosies off!

What were you flying, DougDog?

I once worked with 3 guys who thought they were real manly men. They came back from a meeting once laughing and joking about a client who wore a pink shirt. Feeling evil, I quietly commented, "I'm secure enough in my manhood to wear pink." Woa! They wouldn't talk to me for DAYS! You might...

59 here.

Never had much trouble with orientation in my Model Airplane days 30-mumble years ago, but an airplane is always going FORWARD. Dang, I get crossed up with quads easily. Perhaps I don't see as well either.

The other day I put the camera on a tripod, hovered the "Eggsplorer" around a couple minutes. Once I started the camera recording, do you think I could get the blasted quad in front of the camera for anything? Time for colorful metaphores.
