Excited

Got home at 7 this morning from work tired and ready to get some sleep. I walked into my man cave and my skin was on my desk for my Mini 2. Now you have to understand me, I get excited with stuff arrived, so I stayed up and put the skin on!!

I'm usually terrible about installing such things, but this was went pretty good. I just took my time and it came out good. I wanted to fly it today, but the wind is pretty high. I took it up once and noticed that it was fighting to stay hoovering. Hopefully it is calmer tomorrow!! I really love the wrap (ex-Navy here). I also decided to go with a tablet rather than using my phone. I bought a 10" Galaxy A8. So far I'm having fun spending money!!!
Same thing here…..from Decal girl….2 years and still on my drone….even after a foggy day flight…my Mini 2 was wet and water dripping everywhere

I'll try real hard (and fail) not to crash it!!!!

This drone thing is getting pricey!!
You loose your drone in the weeds or in the top of a tree and the camo does its "job" and you cannot find it and your idea of the "Drone thing getting pricey" will take on a whole new meaning...

I recommend an inexpensive Strobe light that you can Velcro on when you are flying in an area where your camo is most effective, In a park, not needed, out in the fields, you betcha...

I understand your feelings and still get those feelings myself... When I was a little kid growing up in the '50s and I was mailing away for something that I was probably ordering from the back of a comic book, I would put my order in the mailbox on the way to school, but that afternoon, I would hurry home to see if it arrived yet...

I do that today with EVERYTHING I buy on the net...lol I currently have a Tripltek 8 Pro in route (should be here by Tuesday) and I just CAN NOT WAIT!! lol nothing has changed since the 50s. ;)

Yea.... I know. I actually thought I was done several years ago with the Mavic Pro... I learned a lot and never damaged my Mavic with a crash... I think I might have hit some branches on like day one with it and it hit the ground from about 20 feet but there was no damage and I became quite the careful flyer for the next year until I sold it right here on this site for another hobby... The Onewheel. Well, I rode that thing for over 3k miles all thru the Covid crap and suddenly starting worrying about WHEN my inevitable CRASH was coming... And at 54 years old, I didn't want to see that day arrive... I had also been playing with MSFS2020 on the Series X and all those amazing views from Google maps that are downloaded on that game really had me jonesing for another drone... So here I am. Just bought the Mini 2 to get warmed up for the Mavic 3 that I WILL BE getting in early January. My Galaxy Z Fold 3 works fine but it's so fragile as an early adopting device that I went ahead and bought a Tripltec 8 pro for a dedicated device... It's arriving Tuesday, at the latest. Bought the lanyard and a tablet mount for it... About to splurge on a landing pad right after this post, I think, if I can't figure out a solid DIY... So, yea, it's getting pricey, again. Grrr
