Out for a run.....


Even though the weather was pretty grey this morning,  it was a fairly busy morning with people out and about.



Taken with Mini 3 Pro.

Was that a cyclist, or someone with a headtorch?

Runner with a head torch I think, there were quite a few of them about.

See and be seen

He could be seen for miles with that head torch.

You weren't startled by that one then ?

thanks Bashy,  I do like an early morning flight.

Not this morning.    I did try a time-lapse of the sunrise but it was just black.

Nice find and capture DA.   That is one bright torch.  

Very interesting pic!

Funny there was two of them together at one point and I thought a car was coming,   until this one started to lag behind.

How's that

Blériot53 Posted at 1-31 05:12
How's that

Because it was so dark this morning,  or the firmware upgrade it got yesterday has tweaked the exposure.

Oh.  That's a gloomy prospect.
I got a reminder of the firmware update for the Mini3Pro when I  re-activated Wifi on it this morning.
haven't downloaded it though.

Must be on high beam - nice pic

Funny you mention that,  I synced my flight logs this morning and got the same message.

Did you update or hold off?

At least you were able to stay over them to see the outcome.  Patience does pay off.

Ive not updated the Mini 3 Pro,    and probably wont unless there is a feature that takes my fancy that they add.  I know it's against the drone code.

Yes,  but I wish Id remembered to take my new warmer gloves.

Add that to your list of must takes before you leave the house.

Actually thanks for the reminder,  I should put them into my coat now.

Maybe so, but there's no sense risking a backward step which cannot be undone.

Exactly,    we may be forced to update the controller in the future to support the new CAA NFZ database, but who knows how long it will be before they make that available.

Meantime, we carry on unperturbed

Absolutely,  infact my controller is complaining I need to update the fly safe database,   I may do that to remove all the existing zones,  but in some ways I quite like them in there,  makes adhering to the altitude zones more easily.

I'm not really adventurous enough to exceed the limits anyway

That works also.

DIT:  Sorry about the echo.  The flrum got so glitchy I had to sign out and wait about 30 minutes to get back on.  Seems to be working much better now.

Thats why Im torn,  it's nice to have it to remind when the altitude limit changes,  theres a few off those where I fly regularly.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 2-1 11:45
That works also.

Well I tried the new gloves,  and although the touch thing is still a bit iffy with them they are much warmer,   the downside is they are too thick for me to fly with them on.

DowntownRDB Posted at 2-1 11:45

echo echo echo.....

lol.    No worries.

That's a bit sad to hear.  Without the gloves your fingers are going to get mighty cold in the mornings until mid to late Spring if I'm figuring your weather history correctly.

Indeed it was.  I'm not sure what happened but for about 30-45 minutes the forum was glitching.  I signed out then it took about 7 minutes to get signed back in.  Then it was still lagging so I took a long walk and by the time I got back it was working normally again.  Don't think it was on my end as I could reach other websites and they were working normally.

Speaking of altitude changes, I've been over hill and dale this morning for almost 3 hours and I'm exhausted.
