    Arizona Sonoran Desert Scenes

    National park (nature and birds reserve)

    I like the sound effects appropriate for each scene. Was that multi-colored thing a mobile bee colony (guessing from the bee sound effects)?

    Why am I reading about lots of people having lots of problems with Mavic drones?

    Granted, I'm a Newbie with drones but the 'add oil to the RC regularly' comment has me confused. What am I missing here? Thanks.
