Are you getting any Christmas goody’s for your drone 2018

[old man mavic]

Love um dad, scenery, out of this world?? where I live it’s very flat so it’s nice to see hills/valleys in a photo, good job??

Glad you enjoyed yourself today, sooooooo pleased you actually went flying, brilliant dad. Wind here was ok today but tomorrow and Sunday the temps gonna go through the roof, 25c plus?????

Not flying tomorrow, got loads of gardening to do but Sunday I’ll be back up in the air again??

i am going to see what the wind is doing tomorrow,then decide if it is flying weather or not it was great to be back flying but i need to take things slowly so will be taking things day by day.

Charlie, what are those weight things on the rudder? Is that something to do with rust or just to balance everything out?

Interested ?

Another one I took yesterday on a very sunny day????

Dad, I’ve got some scenery photos, I’ll show you how flat the land is here compared to your area??

hi son i may be wrong but i think those weights are anodes they are sacrificial when the ship is in the water they stop the reaction with the sea water and the hull

Dad, love the turbine photos, just love them??? I’m going flying tomorrow, back to the wind farm I think. I want to see if the rapeseed looks better now and hopefully it won’t be as windy as it was the last time I was there.

Was everything ok with you while flying, are you filling better?
