    Best tablet

    I use a k1 and iPad air. IPad has a lot of screen to look at but the k1 is much easier to handle while flying. Definitely. Need a sun screen other than that I like the k1 best. Sent from my SHIELD Tablet K1 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    It is absolutely stupid how addicted I am to this thing

    Good stuff! 5 flights in I started getting cocky....... Somewhere around 10-12 I found a small cedar tree. No harm no foul, not even a scratch. Just a large lump in my throat for rest of evening. Put the rooster back in coop and started paying closer attention again. Have fun!

    Nanuk 950

    945 - perfect so far, had to mod the tablet slot to get the Shield in but easy fix. Rides in back of truck or in cab no worries.

    Buzzard or Red Kyte?

    Going with Kite! We have a couple of buzzard roost on our place and they don't look like those birds.

    Military helicopter chased my P3P today

    Around here flying low means one of several things. Checking pipeline, running seismic, looking for weed or meth. Just sayin!

    Rustoleum paint ruins DJI Phantom drone finish

    Looks like what we called alligator skin. Used to work in the university paint shop in another life. My experience tells me there is oil on the plastic. Even skin oil is enough.... For grins try washing with dish soap use paper towel to handle and allow to dry. Also may want to try Krylon...

    Google ballistics table for .22 LR. Looks Plenty capable to me. But then I am often wrong according to my wife.

    Just have to vent...

    Phone rang and I fat fingered that! Was going to say I agree with no more than 5 with a drunk and less if possible. Also, I had not thought of "growing season" but dang if you aren't spot on with that observation. The Feds fly low around here all the time looking for .........stuff
