Giving back to the drone community.

[Former Member]

If you are a forum member, you might not be an experienced drone pilot or repairman, but Im sure there is something you do very well in your life that you can share with others. Some hobbies and trades translate well into the drone world, such as photography, electrical engineering, fabrication, mechanical engineering, etc. So, if you have experience in any of these disciplines, or others that can help members with their problems here, feel free to offer you opinion on any discussion. You might preface your first opinion on a topic with a statement something like, "I am new to the forum but have been an aeronautical engineer for xx years, and in my experience..." You will get peoples attention, especially if youre right lol

Some days, I learn more than I teach and I enjoy every minute of it. I try to keep an open mind to new theories and ideas, especially from people who have more experience in a field than I do.

In my opinion, carpenters have a unique eye for things to be exact. Most carpenters are also artists, with the ability to translate a concept that a customer has into a beautiful end product. So, dont sell yourself short.

Always available to help with my copious life experiences and newbie perspective on drones.

I neglected to add one more, and possibly the most, important thing you can add to the forum; Humor! I sometimes get so embedded in a subject or discussion, that I completely lose my sense of humor.

Every single member here has a sense of humor (except the Google bots), and it is so welcome here. Sometimes just one post from a member can make me laugh the whole day, and break me out of a funk.

Jokes (in good taste) are very welcome here in the Off-topic category.

I think all my favorite teachers said as you said. AKA there is no such thing as a stupid question. OMM, you are one of my favorite teachers.

Some of my other favorite teachers here, who know alot more than I do about many things, are @Porky @sar104 @BudWalker @BD0G @BigAl07 @FoxhallGH @mnis

If I didnt mention you, its just because Im having a senior moment (or hour, or day)

Thats what I call a Bad Moon Rising. Not sure about the UK, but a "moon" in the USA is the exposure, whether intentionally or by accident, of ones bottom (bum).

Also, coincidentally, it's the theme song to American Werewolf In London.

We call it a “Mooney” here in the uk.
By the way you shouldn’t be looking at my bum but my surfing skills???????
