Flat thanks to the WI glacier. I’m about 10 miles north of the terminal moraine. I’ve always lived on the prairie on get totally lost in mountainous terrain very fast.😝

I remember an Aunt that stopped in for a visit. She lived on the prairies all her life.
Couldn't sleep well, as she was afraid she'd fall off the mountain. 😁

Todd that is a nice drone. You can go around and take pictures of peoples roofs and then they can use the photograph to check for shingles bad or missing . I usually charge 40 to 50 dollars to go take roof pictures

My drone came and I managed to jump through all the tech hoops to get it flying. Next I’ll figure out how to take pics and videos. Flying it is very easy. A 5 yr old could easily learn to control it. I flew radio control airplanes and those are 10X harder to fly. I’ve been reading about legal issues as well. Once the drone is airborne, it comes under FAA rules only. No state or local laws apply to aircraft in the air. Air space above your property is owned by you, however any aircraft has an “easement “ to fly over it. A city could ban use of, say a park, for take offs and landings, but has zero control of an airborne drone. View attachment 2210042View attachment 2210043
I’ve only managed to take a pic of the screen with my phone. A lot more tech stuff to figure out! If you zoom in you can see me sitting in the open door on my barn.

Cool!!
Man.... it's flat 'round there!!

Does it have a claw ?

Sounds like what a wife would say. I've been trying harder to keep some of my thoughts now to myself, which still isn't any better. Just a couple days ago I was sitting at a stoplight and there was a drone hovering above the intersection. I wondered what it was up to.

Better than an MS 660.

No Claw It is a Gladius Mini. Here in Ohio near me the water is so murky had to see over 5 feet in front of it

I had a drone for about 10 minutes until I decided it would be fun to see how fast I could go through the trees.
I ended up selling it for parts and bought rc cars instead.
