Try to give you a bit more notice…

If I sit my drone in front of the camera, it will make you feel better !

Tides going out nicely !

Oh - you have to give us all a few minutes notice to log onto the webcam before you fly past … as close as is sensible and safe!!!

Edit: Grrrr … it’s an intermittent still picture webcam - not live streaming video. :frowning:

yeah, just noticed that !!

And I’ve got three for my Mavic now. Impromptu drone swarm around the webcam!

I’d ask my son if I could borrow his Tello but you’d never see it on a webcam. It’s about the size of a mosquito’s testicle.

oh ,poo ! you’ll be lucky to see me.
Better have words with the owner, me thinks!

Perhaps you can hang a flag under the drone - more visible! :+1:

Edit: Makes note to order GADC flags for such occasions. :wink:

I’ve had that webcam page running for 15 minutes … nothing seems to have changed.

Tap them up to install a video stream! :wink:

refresh and you will see that the picture does change !.
@OzoneVibe you have to remember, we still use steam engines up here in “Narfuk”
(must remember to put coal in drone bag to recharge batteries)

I’ve done that … it must be seriously cold there … the people in the bottom pic have been frozen to the spot.

Edit: They just thawed.
