In Benidorm until the 17th

What did you think of that area. More interesting isn’t it?

Yeah it’s better and quieter

But a longer walk :walking_man: to charge up the batteries

You need a GADC approved, light and portable charging system :smiley:

There’s nothing in this life from free mate. Netter flying site more effort needed to fly :joy:.

Yeh, not as much traffic down there, where as up the other end on that path you get every man and his dog🤣. Pun intended.

What batteries are in there?

30ah. Does me loads and loads :slight_smile: Never had it run out on a day out inc DJI FPV, and Avata using the Invertor.

Also inside. Plenty of room. I have 4 Lipo chargers in there, a 120W USB C power brick, the DJI FPV charger, and a 240V interter. Plus a cable bag to connect everything up! You can’t even see the battery. Lead acid a lot cheaper, but BOY is it heavy. I use my old lead acid to collect the power to charge all this. My drones/planes are solar powered :smiley:
