Thanks for letting me know. In the end, I ended up buying a Mini 5 pro. Fingers crossed it actually makes it here. Frank

Hi Dale, I'm potentially interested in your Mini 4. I see your pic of 1 battery with 11 cycles. Is that about the same as the others? Frank

I hiked up and camped at the top overnight hoping for a sunrise, but woke up inside a cloud instead. Bummer. I didn't launch the drone until almost everyone was gone so as to not annoy people. The only other small group that WAS there were also flying :-)

I've been doing some pretty basic Part 107 work for the past 5 or so years. It's 99% CRE (Commercial Real Estate) so the money is pretty bottom of the barrel. However, I enjoy doing these easy assignments. It gets me out of the house (I'm retired) and gives me an excuse to fly my Air 3S. Lately...

I shot this one a number of years ago. Might give you a couple of ideas. Also, if you're Part 107, consider flying some of the skyscrapers downtown. I was surprised how much of the city is wide open airspace wise.

For the longest time, I was using a program called VSDC. It wasn't easy to use, but once I learned it, I was super hesitant to switch. But I finally made the move to DaVinci Resolve, and WOW! What a difference. There are tons of videos on YT on how to use it, so make the switch. As an aside, I...

WOW. Just wow!

This wasn't what I was looking for, but it's a useful feature nonetheless. Thanks! BTW, on a PC it's Ctrl-double click

This was a couple of fun flights to film. Going way way up to majestically follow these waterfalls down up close.

It's another river, but ultimately, it's melting snow from the glaciers upstream.
