Well, SWMBO decided for me. After (not) sleeping on it, she came up with a litany of "what ifs" and I'm just not willing to deal with the heartburn.
This adulting shit sucks.

Re: Rutro, I could be in serious trouble with SWMBO...
I have (grudging) permission to get it, but I'm rethinking the whole thing. It would put a serious strain on our resources and if anything major went wrong in the next couple of years, it could really bite me on the ass. OTOH, I ain't getting any younger and if I wait for the "perfect" opp...

Re: First Drone Flight
I didn't realize that you lived so close to the beach. You could run over for a dip purt near anytime you want. Of course, being as you are so close to the Arctic Circle, it might be a tad nipply certain times of the year. :shock: Only in months with letters in them. Downstate, the Gulf Stream come...

Re: First Drone Flight
Wow Paul, what a fantastic toy. I love the photos! It IS fun! I have an idea it could be a money pit tho, looking at accessories. Took this a couple of days ago: hahbah.jpg Taken from directly above my house looking South East. That's the harbor, then the Gulf of Maine (aka the Atlantic Ocean).

Re: Beautiful Downtown Prospect Hahbah, America.
I didn't think to check the altitude, but at a guess I'd say 75 feet or so. It's capable of saving to my phone, I just need to figure that out. At the moment, I just pop the SD card out of the drone and download them to the computer. Better that way anyway, as I'd have to send them from the phone to...

Playing with the drone some more. Pretty impressed with the camera, especially at the price point. Next step is to check out the video function.
Re: HELP
I have one that I ONLY use for Amazon purchases. I pay it off in full every month as it's a Chase card and the interest is stupid. The only reason I even have it is for the 5% back on Amazon purchases. And speaking of Amazon, I will NOT be renewing my Prime membership that I've had for years. It's b...

I'm in trouble now...
New Harbor Freight store opened in town. Nearest one used to be in Bangor, 60+ miles away and I could easily resist going there unless I really NEEDED something. This one is in Ellsworth, and I'm there at least once a week. I stopped in today for the "grand opening" and walked out a tad ov...
