Been away for five weeks...

Drones were made illegal in most countries so the hobby is dead. This forum will be closing at the end of the week. Otherwise nothing new.

Just kidding! Everything's fine. You didn't miss much. Here's what I remember:

Were you around for the 3.10 firmware disaster? DJI released it and apparently after you fly with it for about 30 - 45 min your drone does a RTC (Return To China) and/or drops from the sky. Anyway DJI pulled it and we are back to 3.08 which seems solid.

Bruce Jenner is turning into a woman and murdered someone with his car.

Limefuel released their 6000Mah batteries. They give you maybe 1 - 3 min more flight time. So nice but not spectacular.

The NSA stole the encryption keys to most of the world's SIM cards: http://interc.pt/1COE51C

There's a new 3rd party drone app out for the Vision 2+ that has some cool features. It's a bit rough but the "follow me" feature is looking fun and promising. I bought it but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. A few threads on it around here if you look.

Seaworld killed another Beluga: http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/death-of-v ... -1.2247546

Mm... I think that's about all. You are now caught up!

I can't take credit, but it was reported that Bruce Jenner never had a traffic accident....

...until he became a woman! :shock:

If you use the latest motors you must have ESC's marked 2.1 or drone will fall to ground.

and it must have a yellow mark on the capacitor or its not 2.1 and it will fall to the ground.

there is one less moderator here, who apparently caused a whole lot of grief one weekend.


Where have you been and did you have a good time ?
 
Bruce Jenner is turning into Jimmy Hoffa.

There is a legal limit to how high you can fly your drone. Or not. Definitely one of the two.

Who are Bruce Hoffa and Jimmy Jenner?

I was in Sri Lanka on a well-earned vacation. Which was nice.

Bruce was a union boss that disappeared a long time ago in very strange circumstances.
Jimmy was an athlete / tv personality but now is a bit weird.
 
We had a bunch of Springtime weather in Wyoming.
Slinger and TJ teamed up with Happyflyer and some others to push the cold and a little snow out west.

It's now a mild Winter here.
Tomorrow should be about 35 and next weekend in the 40's. :D

Nobody has been digging up my ranch, so I know they didn't find Jimmy Hoffa. ;)

When you need a bit of amusement: :lol:

Been away for 5 weeks? Just not good enough!
This is my first post in about 4 months lol

4 months!?! I thought I was bad :|

Crashed my Phantom on December 28th and slowly faded away from the forum...

My antenna sponsor just grabbed me a new one from B&H so looks like I'll be back in business tomorrow according to UPS tracking :)

Although I'm kinda sketchy on all these V3 problems :evil:
 
Yeah business is booming so hadn't had time to fly much. I'm loving the new v3. Gonna get up to a bit of mischief with it :)
