[LockMD]

Haven't installed the props yet BUT...... gotta give props to OC, he talked me through the firmware upgrade and a bit more.

Props to OC, thank you! He basically walked me through the firmware upgrade, gave me advice about compass settings, etc..... I should be able to fly tomorrow worry free with his help.

AGAIN, THANK YOU OC, you ROCK!!! cant wait to meet you on the 30th, even if I don't bring the Inspire (maybe a different bird) LOL

 

[insectorchird3]

well people by the bay as it is 11 days from the proposed meat up i think we should start nailing some things down we seem to have the date May 30th but we still need a time and place my opinion is Middle Harbor Shoreline park at 9:00 AM how would this work out for you guys?

I am still waiting on a response from the CA Parks about their newly opened park.

Another option I was looking at was the Bedwell Bayfront Park

Big wide open space with a scenic view.

My Quad Family....



Inspire 1 is the only one that hasn't been in the air YET

 

[Outta Control]

Take her up.

 

[PureSQNut]

What are you waiting for?

 

[LockMD]

What are you waiting for?

A calmer day, more gonads?

Don't rush me. I'm not Russian, I'm Irish

I've never flown 3 thousand dollars before and I'd hate to crash on the first flight LOL

 

[Outta Control]

Attention Please:

 

[insectorchird3]

nice work !!!!

 

[Outta Control]

some footage from there. I am expecting other flyers at the park.

 

[PureSQNut]

looks good. I see some low level detail flying in my future to combine with higher (but still legal) altitude shots

 

[Outta Control]

I wanted to pass this along to y'all member that are looking to fly our Inspire 1 for commercial purposes.

Since early February I've enrolled in a school that focuses on passing the FAA part 107 knowledge test. This is not for a 333 Exemption but once the FAA pulls their head out of their *** then this course will be very handy.

The great thing about this school is that you can get a refresher to passing the FAA tests.

Check them out and based on their schedule I will be on their June class.
