Helicopters, Drones and an old Building

 10-10-2022

It has been pretty nice but cold weather so I just come out and fly the FW-450 then get warm again.  Since we had the maples taken out there are not too many leaves but quite a few of the seeds with propellers end up on the roof.  I usually do one flight a day blowing them off.

I discovered today that this transmitter would work with the Vapor and Mini Vapor.  I did some flying tonight in front of the shop using the motion light to see them.

I have been taking pictures of this building on Dougherty Drive since 2004, this is how it looked then.

This is how it looked in 2011 after a heavy snow.

It is gone now, they cleaned up debris and mowed this summer.
We went over Dougherty Drive today and I took a wide angle picture of the area.
It is amazing what reading the directions can do.  I bought a new drone that got terrible reviews from most people.  I tried it a couple of times without reading all the instructions and the results were not good.  Yesterday I read all of the instructions and figured out what I was doing wrong.  I went out today, it flew fine and I took this picture with it.  I also got in some helicopter and Vapor flying this afternoon, it was a beautiful day.
