I have always been into RC toys. Off road cars and I did have a RC sailboat. As soon as I could, I got my private pilot license (VFR) at 17. I was headed to the Air Force when I got derailed by love, wife and family. Now I run a construction company and fly drones for fun. I have not piloted a...

Maybe clean the sensor?

Welcome. Nice pictures. Well done. This place is great, enjoy.

Been there, done that, and learned. Rule # 437; When ever you use active track, don’t ever put down the controller. ?

I have been working on a mountain top at 4000 feet lately and shooting video of my work. The winds sometimes try to take my MPP away, so I flip to sport mode and bring her back. Last weekend I tried to get some nice shots of the fall leaves behind my wood shed and forgot it was in sport mode and...
