I’m just curious about your motivation for the switch to drones or the addition of drones to your arsenal?
Cameras and photo's for me. being able to fly low and slow.
For sure. Heck I was flying in close quarters within a few days of unboxing my Mavic. I had to go through beginners steps flying fixed wing and I'm still learning. Being crashing is much more common, you just got to grin and bare it when you lose one of your aircraft. It makes (IMO) for an exhilarating experience flying fixed wing especially when you almost crash. But just landing can be an eye opening event every time you go up. So yeah I have more fun flying fixed wing. I'm lucky to belong to a great club with one of the best runways around and our membership is large enough to get a feel of being at a large airshow most days we fly. I enjoy shooting RC aircraft with my DSLR's and do the club calendar each year. Some of the aircraft are very interesting to watch especially the scale models, pylon racers and turbine aircraft.I’m assuming the fixed wing takes much more skill. Could I add the question “which do you enjoy more“?
I pray your health improves and you can keep flying. Best wishes.I progressed as a hobby at first from R/C boats, to cars, to trucks, to planes, to heli's, and enjoyed all of them, but they were much more hassle with the fuel etc., so went electric when ALS started destroying my muscles. Now it's all I can physically do and it's getting pretty difficult with the batteries and small SSD cards, gimble cover, and all. Gotta try to play with something!
I have to go about 45 minutes away to fly my planes. I can fly drones a lot closer to home. Still prefer planes, but hardly get to fly them.I’m just curious about your motivation for the switch to drones or the addition of drones to your arsenal?
