A trek tothe summit of Kinder Scout recently would have presented great opportunities for flying the Mini3Pro.
It was right there in the back-pack, ready to go.
But once out of the valley, where it was still enough for the mist to still be hanging, the wind increased ferociously.
Luckily I'd brought along the Pocket 2 as well.

Epic shot.You got the Mavic 3? Or is this a typo?

Ah, I was wondering - didn't remember a self timer on the Pocket.

Great shot Mr. B.    The view from there is impressive.  Is that your favorite hat you are sporting?

I haven't had the Flu in several years but from what I remember it wasn't fun at all but at least I was able to get over it in a few days.  So hope a couple of days works for you also.

Nice shot and epic view!

A man with a view,  love it.   Hope your feeling better today.  

That is an epic shot. A man of mystery, ready to conquer the world that opens before his very eyes :-)

I heard you got a bit down with a flu from a vaccine :-( I hope you get well soon, and hopefully those vaccines will help you prevent getting something worse.

Nice shot of a man in front of a beautiful scenery. Well done

Thanks mate
My daughter used the Pocket2 for that.
Yes Mrs.B and I have suffered a bad reaction to the booster shots we has last Wednesday. Still feeling pretty awful. Hopefully it will wear off in the next few days.

She did a great job with the camera :-)

And sorry to hear about your and Mrs. B:s condition :-( I hope you get well soon. If it just keeps going on like that, or even gets worse, do not hesitate to contact medical support. Rather too soon than too late in these cases...

We stuck our noses out into the sunshine and brisk winds this morning for half an hour.
Blew some cobwebs away with a walk round the village.

Nice,   its clear here this morning. But no sunrise of any worth even though sunset was glorious last night,   Have some painting to do this morning then I hope to get out and maybe get a flight in.  

The DJI RC seems stuck at Stansted this morning,  last night it was estimated to be delivered today at 12 now there is no ETA.

That's not a bad turnaround, even so. I expect they've just sent you a replacement item?

Postal strike ?

Maybe due to the LiPo battery?

Frustrating. But you have the backup controller at least.

It finally updated the status to say that the paper work is sorted.  Hopefully it will move soon.

In the mean time Ive gone back to the mini 2 and smart controller,  the RCN1 was driving me potty.  Yes you can call me spoilt.
