UNLESS YOUR BEING ACCUSED OF SOMETHING, YOUR A NOBODY .

I STARTED GROWING A , " I HAVE NOT SHAVED IN A WEEK LOOK " ,  TO GET THE HOLLYWOOD MOGUL THING HAPPENING.  STILL NOT WORKING , NOBODY IS ACCUSING ME OF ANYTHING.  I FEEL SO ASHAMED .

Did you buy something without telling your significant other or mess around with an insignificant other? :-\ It's not a good time of year to get on the naughty list.  :(

Never had a F--- and never will.

Another girlfriend. Nah.
I dont need that drama.

Wood kit = very expensive firewood

Sixball hit the nail on the head.
I rather beg for forgiveness than permission. Im a rebel like that.
I recently purchased a DRONE ! 😱

Like a little bee boy? It takes a lot of them to take care of the queen. It's the workers that make the honey.

Are you going to use it to search farms and ranches for old cars and parts or maybe check out salvage yards like Pick and Pull before you pay you buck to go in? ::) How do you keep those things from just flying away?

Im going to use it to film my off-road trips.
I have a few years of footage to edit and I'll be starting a YouTube channel to post em on.
They have satalites they lock on to as well as GPS.
Once everything is set up properly it should prevent prevent a fly away.
Some impatient people have had a fly away.
Lots of stuff to go thru. The filming is spectacular and professional.
Here's a video of a friend that uses his.

Beautiful! Kinda' looks like my driveway. I usually try to get home before dark. :o
Iv'e actually been thinking of getting one to play with and use to photograph some of the trespassers that I don't want to chase. Maybe drop snakes on them.

I ordered a uav simulator (usb stick) to practice with before the first flight. It works great to get a feel for the controls and how it's going to maneuver, just like the real thing. Plug it into your PC and turn on the controller.
Made a few adjustments and calibrations.

Today took it out for it's first flight. Tried out all the functions and switched it to home mode. It comes back and lands all by itself, then shuts off motors.

Already thinking of taking the 32 out for some arial filming. I have a video already started with pics and such , but this should be a great way to finish the vid.

That sounds like too much fun. I'm really interested to see what you come up with. Do you have links to the model you bought?
 I need that homing mode installed on my pickup!  :o

I picked up the Yuneec typhoon q500 4k . When searching on different drones, DJI seemed to be the standard (like Ford) but parts availability is a must for me as well as something that's going to last me for a few years.
Mine I bought used and prices have come down alot.

Yuneec started out with electric aircraft first then broke into the drones. Now drones are getting smaller with retractable arms so they are easier to carry.
Here's some cool videos of the Detroit area, I thought y'all would enjoy.

A few weeks ago I was able to get a flight while camping. While it was legal for me to fly there, the camp host said to keep it quick, cause people complain. My video didn't upload correctly but was able to get a pic 65 ft up just before landing.
Landing is the scariest part but pulled it off successfully.
