G'day fellow flyers. I just won myself a used Mavic Air which wasn't working, but 2 hours after bidding the postman farewell it's now running perfectly. It seems I can't get away from Mavics. I also own the Mavic Pro Platinum which has been in it's delivery box since it was purchased some years ago, plus there's the baby of the group a Mavic Mini, I also appear to stall on the original versions. Are quadcopters like movies and books? They reckon follow ups are never as good as the first releases.
I'm an ex serviceman who got badly poisoned by Agent Orange after 4 trips to Vietnam. I'm now disabled and been stuck in bed for the past 5 years. Every now and then, mostly then than now, I manage to get a couple pf nurses to help me get to the car and my wife takes me for a drive around our tiny town to see what has and what hasn't changed. Other than that I avoid going stir crazy by flying around the world on the PC, making and then solving jigsaws and tackling my favourite hobbies. 3D printing, laser cutting, and making jewelery, all whilst in my 12' x 12' bedroom.
I used to build RC trucks, boats, planes quadcopters and helicopters, but my darling wife put a stop to it as every room in the house apart from the kitchen, the bathroom and laundry is full to overflowing with ready to run models. I have a problem I'm told, I can't sell anything, possibly why my bedroom looks like an Amazon warehouse with a bed in the middle. Oh yes. I forgot the 200 plus collection of digital cameras and my massive music collection which I spent 15 years digitizing and storing on a pile of hard drives.
In my spare time, I can be found keeping my .4 million library of digital photos organized and adding to them at every opportunity. Over the past month I've increased my wartime collection by another 9,000 photos and paintings. That was keeping me awake until 6am every morning. I don't sleep much these days, I'd much rather be doing something. Whilst I was younger I enjoyed sleeping far too much, so now I'm claiming that wasted time back and get away with a couple of hours from 6am to breakfast time.
Please forgive me for waffling on, I rarely get visitors, who wants to visit an old man stuck in bed? OK, leave the old women out of this
I'd better do the shepherd's trick and leave you guys alone.
Happy flying and good luck to you all. Stu.
