Ah the rain. The only down side to LOS. I was also thinking about doing something near Asiatique. My plan was to hire a river boat as my launch and run it from there. I would probably take a bit more baht if I end up giving that a shot. Just in case.

I have to agree with the OP. While many things in Thailand are illegal, the lack of enforcement is rampant. The OP is very right in the fact that knowing a few BiB (Boys in Brown), will clear up almost any issue you encounter. In my first trip I used LinkedIn to meet a few of the local police...

Just an FYI. I also have SF on my Mavic, but I did the personal property policy because a claim against my home owner's policy would jack up the cost considerably. Also, the deductible for my home owner's policy in my state is 1% of the property value. In my case that is close to $5K just to...

Fatboy

IMG_1843 by jtd1020 posted Jan 13, 2017 at 9:39 PMI had this Maxpedition Fatboy lying around when I finally got my Mavic. The drone and the remote fit great in the bag. I just put the extra props and connectors in the side pockets. These bags are crazy tough, non-padded, water resistant, just...
