Sorry

I had a triple yesterday.

There's a new software update for the Mini 3 which came out today. .0300 release.

Ah. No, then, in that case.
Maybe tomorrow.

Anything useful in it?

A couple of cyclist came whizzing by as I was about to take the shot, so I rushed it.
I was tempted to nudge them into the canal

Bit harsh,  but if they bring in those new rules for cyclists if they are not compliant than I think then it would be permitted.

A hat-trick, you might say

Blériot53 Posted at 8-17 05:41

Smoother hyperlapse mainly. And RC Pro support.

Don't let it get in the way of the nap.

I didnt see it that way really.

Most are pretty law-abiding but some treat the towpath like a racing circuit. They get quite offended when they have to use the brakes

The hyperlaapse might be useful.  I don't have the RC Pro.

No chance of that

There's a big increase here of electric bikes that can literally do 55mph.    I got caught behind one weaving all over the road the other week but they also fly down the pavements too.

Blériot53 Posted at 8-17 05:54

Me neither,   I wonder if the RC remote will get an update now that 1.6.12 fly app is officially out for all other devices.

Idiots. And don't get me started on souped-up mobility scooter riders who think you should leap out of the way so they can hurtle past on narrow pavements at up to 12 mph.   And have the cheek to sound the horn when you don't. Pavements are for walking pace.
Sorry, did I step onto my soapbox there?

Fun coincidence a mobility Scott broke down outside the house earlier. Man did I laugh.

Thanks RDB. Walked back from the café - 6 miles. I'm pooped.  Siesta time now

You're very welcome.    Bused there but on return trip I see.  That's quite the walk back.  

DAFlys Posted at 8-17 05:37

This new firmware update had me to update each battery also.  

Blériot53 Posted at 8-17 05:10
It would need an all-terrain vehicle to get up there. I'm guessing they lifted the biggest parts out by helicopter.  This one was apparently just a light plane from a local airfield.

Sounds like they took the essential pieces they needed and left the rest for scrappers.  

DAFlys Posted at 8-17 05:31
Do you know why you can't detect in the water?

The Florida law reads:  "Objects more than 50 years old are state property and are illegal to retrieve by private operators."  They are worried about all the old sunken Spanish galleons, etc. being robbed of their treasures.

In a burst of enthusiasm I overdid it a bit. Wrong footwear. Nursing a blister or two today.

Too remote for that I think

Curious I just checked mine and it didnt prompt.

50 years.  they are setting the ball low aren't they.

Uh oh, that's not good.    You could try the Tentoes method.

Could well be.  

DAFlys Posted at 8-17 23:04

That's interesting.  I updated using Assistant 2.  When I put in 2nd battery to check for firmware update it indicated I had a firmware mismatch.  The update for the 2nd battery was much faster than drone/battery combo.  Same occurred when I put in 3rd battery....mismatch.  


I see other posters in the forum saying they had to update all batteries also.  Di you update via Fly App or Assistant 2?  Just curious.

DAFlys Posted at 8-17 23:06

No doubt about that.  I could see150-200 years as being reasonable.

Just messing with you.

I tried again the following morning and it did give me the option that time so I updated them all before I went out.

Got. a good walk out to the gooseberry in yesterday,  for safety I walked out with the tide going out as to avoid being cut off,  the river walking shoes worked well even though it was out to sea.

Now you can call them sea shoes.    Good planning going with the tide going out.  Much safer that way.

Here's a couple of quick screengrabs for you - the bus is due

That's definitely a radial engine, common to WWI aircraft. Nice find!

When l go to the seaside, l do have a paddle. Does that count?
