Still can't over how small it is, yet able to produce steady video in the breeze. Barely bigger than my normal camera, and lighter. Modern technology just blows me away.

Its certainly more modern that that carpet
You're not my late grandmother are you?
A quick up & down this morning at Topsham. No more than 10 minutes in the air, and at 50m height was barely audible. Quieter than the aeroplane overhead.
A successful maiden flight. The footage looks sharp enough. All ready for a sunset shoot this week.

That looks impressive for the price. I am temped enough to have added one to my Amazon Wish list![]()
The whole caboodle is impressive, both the gear and the app. At the moment I'm just doing really really basic stuff, and the app has so far worked flawlessly, not letting me do anything without everything being connected properly, and wouldn't launch the drone until I'd moved it away from some blades of grass.... there's an auto take-off button that gets it about 1m off the ground, and an auto return that returns it to where it took off from, within inches (you can specify a 'safe return altitude' that will take it to that height from wherever it is, get it back dead over the launch spot, then bring it down vertically).
I think I'm going to go via some nice big fields by the Exe upstream on my way into a hospital appointment tomorrow, as I need to be nice and relaxed so my heart isn't jumping around too much for a CT scan. (Obviously I'm riding in, but very gently!)

Wishing you well for tomorrow. Hopefully you won't need any invasive treatment or any treatment at all.
