I’m really in trouble now. What would you do?

[DougAles]

So Annette and I were in Manhattan, New York.


She realized I was no longer behind her so she called my cell phone.


After I answered, with a stern voice she said “You know we have a lot of Christmas shopping to get done. Where are you?”


I replied “Do you remember that jewelry store where you found that beautiful diamond necklace years ago and I said if I could ever afford it, I would buy that for you?”


Now with a shaken voice and nearly crying with emotions she said “Yes honey,... I,... I remember!”


Then I said “Well, I’m inside the drone store next to that.”

Maybe if you get her something nice for the store next door, she will find something for you here. Hope you two have a Merry Christmas.

Love your story mate...thank you for sharing. ...loool

 

[locoman]

if you really want peace of mind flying your new Mavic, you really can't go wrong with the Dimond necklace.

I showed your story to my wife. I laughed a lot more than she did.

Great video, you have a good sense of humor! Now, a Pro Tip: you can get much steadier video in the airplane by using your Mavic, not your phone. Just put it in the Tripod mode and hover between the isles.

I ended up buying a gamble. -> Edit -> I ended up buying a motorized camera gimbal, a gizmo that is similar to what stabilizes the camera in our Mavic Pro drones.

Here is a video where I give my gimbal a try....

I thought it was the OP that was buying a "gamble". Hehe

Well, flying Mavic inside a commercial jet at 33,000ft is a different kind of gamble.

Zero wind! #Bonus
GPS Fix could be entertaining, as it tries to hover "stationary" to the world beneath. ... "Look out at the back!!!!"
