Flying from inside house or car anyone?

[Turbomania]

Haha, yeah, 200 ft would be a great start With my DBS02 (when everything was working correctly) I could sit at my dining room table inside my brick house and fly 2000' in any direction...man, that was fun! Jake is awesome and I know he'll get me sorted out. Now to see if I can rent an RC to fly a few jobs while mine is off......

Have always heard good things about Jake!!
You can use my extra... is Michigan too far

Haha, man, I really appreciate it! I'm all the way down in the rolling green hills of Tennessee. I really think I am going to look for another P3P bird and RC...it just makes sense to have a backup of everything ready to go. Especially with prices coming down so much! Gonna keep my eyes open...

Thats EXACTLY what happened to mine. I siliconed/hotglued/epoxied the base from inside to prevent it next time. (Tightened as much as possible first.)

Plus, I had video cut out at around 1200' compared to the 20,000' I've gotten before. Knew something was wrong.

There's nothin' wrong Johnny..... We've decided to limit your distance and fun. LOS just became a real thing... enjoy... (static)........

Not quite inside, but I fly from my screen in back porch. I have a really nice conservation area in back yard and have a clear line of site way out.

I usually like to fly in new spots, but this set-up is good for testing or I just need a quick fix for my flight addiction.

Star washers work great, they bite into the plastic case and the brass fitting.
