Hello everyone, here to share and participate instead of just lurking in the shadows as just a spectator. Intermediate pilot from Southern Arizona, just for funsies with focus on exploration. My favorite thing to do living in rural AZ is surf Google earth for interesting spots, then drive there and explore. I've found abandoned quarries, silos, ghost towns, bridges; followed roads that start and lead to nowhere, previewed trails that need hiking, and scaled hidden canyons in the middle of nowhere. My drone of choice is the Mavic Air 2, but I've tried almost all of the DJI drones as well as several other of the more popular ones from Yuneec, Hubsan, Parrot, and Autel. My setup is constantly evolving, but I currently leave the house with a 17.3 inch galaxy view 2 tablet (w/anti glare screen protector, a must!), 6 full batteries, two full controllers, and basically spare everything. It all fits in my old HS backpack. I'm currently working on building a harness for the beast tablet so I can support the weight around my neck (5lb tablet!). Anyway, I am here to meet other like minded folks so hello and thanks for having me!
