GADC 4th Birthday Challenge

You can’t fault anyone’s commitment*, organisers or competitors, the ones who put most effort in won fair and square.

*except mine perhaps - my commitment to capturing the Cricket Match is questionable.

Seven PM and the suddenly redundant scorers of the Birthday Challenge consider retraining as Class 1 ADR certified drivers. Their hopes for positions within the RTF Competition (starts Sunday) were dashed when they realised that points were awarded by the contestants and spectators themselves

You know when your company has made it … when lego creates vehicles with your brand on it.

I cannot believe I just watched 6 minutes of lego cranes :wink: It was awesome too :grin:

And FTW … it had everything … it wasn’t yellow, it was in motion, being escorted … ah, no roof truss :rofl:

Not eligible. More than 30 seconds long. Resubmit as a hyperlapse if you want to get any points.

Oh!

Hang on - we don’t have to do this anymore!

Right, we’re off down the pub and staying there till next year !

No lifting for at least 3 weeks, emergency surgery done at York on Tuesday, sadly the A&E sent me home last Thursday, my GP was on the ball luckily and saved my life

Really sorry to hear that Mark. Wishing you a full and quick recovery. Please keep us informed of your progress. Suppose at least you are spared the misery of having to hunt for fuel or stare at empty supermarket shelves.

You can watch the first competition from the sidelines and cast your vote for the winners once it closes. Here’s hoping you can make the following competition :slight_smile:

Meanwhile the weekly Friendly Edit Competition starts on October 9th 2021 - someone supplies a RAW picture and you use your editing skills and judgement to make it into a stunning photo. That can be done in comfort at home :+1:

If I’d known the Foo Fighters were keeping score I’d’ve been down to Challenge HQ like a shot. :rofl:

Damn! We’ve been rumbled!

OK, we admit, some of the pictures we posted were not totally accurate, more a representation of the facts rather than the literal actualité

No deception was intended. :frowning:

This is what i have put my winnings towards after winning the GADC 4th Birthday Challenge
Its been well overdue to replace my Samsung S8 with this S20 Plus model i am very pleased with it as now i can read the texts as the screen is much better and it is making my flying even more enjoyable as i use it for the control of my DJIM2 drone.

Once again, BIG thank you to GADC for the hard work and man hours to put this on it is a huge task and i thank you all for doing so.
