Buying a drone is just the start of it!

“Yes honey, I know £1349 is a lot of money to fork out but I won’t need anything else!”

Days/weeks later, and I’ve somehow ‘needed to buy’ a tablet (just for flying), a mount (for said tablet), a monitor hood (ditto), ND filters, extra cables, extendable landing gear, propellor holders, LiPo bags, gimbal protector, landing pad, a skin (to make it more visible :lying_face:), standalone cree LEDs … and I’m not finished yet! :joy:

Santa’s gonna be busy!

I don’t think I’m able to get them all in a single shot, nor have I got the space to group them altogether. I’m now prepared to publicly admit I have a problem as my wife, who up until recently has been quiet about the whole thing, the other day complained that there are flying robots, and bits of flying robots, in every room of the house. I expect, in the very near future, to be interviewed by Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield as a hoarder on This Morning.

Regards

Nidge.

I bought them directly from the guy that prints them for him.
I wanted a more angry look so I cut them in half and angled them to achieve the look as is.
