I quite often fly through the woods using my FPV it’s a good way to sharpen your skills and learn to judge the gap based on the size of the Mavic. Won’t lie have trimmed some greenery when I first started doing it.

Went to test the insanely bright strobe on the bum of JayForceOne and took a little post sunset view of my home town as the lights came on.

It was weird it was like they had a hose under water then coming up there because it was jetting water?! No idea.

Dang it! That’s SUCH a downside of aerial photos … can’t read the sides of ships. 😉

Almost got a cracking video of one landing but was bit rusty on the sticks.  
I couldn’t see it on the iPad so was panning madly to find it. On watching it back it was centre to start with, shot ruined.  
I really need more practice.

LIGHTING IN HOUSES

This tower of light was built in 1835 so it’s seen a lot over time. She sits on the gateway to Falmouth Harbour, one of the largest natural harbours in the world.

St Anthony’s Lighthouse, Cornwall

That’s a new one on me!  
Electric motors perform better when cooler - the windings conduct better the colder they are.  
Just fly!!! … that way, at least, you’re using the battery more and keeping THAT warm. Far more important! 😉

I do vaguely recall someone saying that… but it wouldn’t (shouldn’t) have been to “warm the motors” … and I’m damned if I can recall what that was in relation to.  
A minute’s lost flying isn’t going to change the world. 🙂  
Anyway … good holiday? Good flying? I’ve been watching ski resort webcams and the last couple of weeks has looked superb snow!

One from the Mavic Air this evening. Have to say, on the settings I used this evening, grain appeared to be more of an issue than the MP and a touch soft…

Am flying tomorrow morning when it should be bright, will be interesting to see how she performs.
