I spent most of this morning reading up on the controls of this drone and putting it together. Watched some videos, and tried not to shoot from the hip like I normally do. I didn’t want to fish this thing out of the gravel pit like the old one. Finally, I went out and just tried it.
Night and day compared to the last one. It just did exactly what I told it to. Very cool. The GPS controls are nice, and there’s a few things I need to learn and dial in, but overall I’m pretty stoked. Its got me thinking of a few places I’d like to document: Wendover Airfield, and an old ghost town about 30 minutes away from here. Places I couldn’t get to, and to maybe see it from a birds eye view.
Yeah, I’m stoked. Think I found myself a new hobby. Already starting to think about a few road trips….
