Sitting in a puddle......

Whilst it was still windy this morning from Storm Kathleen. (she wasnt as angry as the name suggests) there was still a little colour in the fluffy clouds.

Yes,   it does seem to be rather neglected doesnt it.  Perhaps the owner only likes to do fine weather sailing.

It's a bit of a strange place to leave it though. At the mercy of the tides and elements.

Does sailor count for a motor boat?

Yikes, that's never good.  

Nice capture David!

Indeed it was a very miserable start to the day.

thanks Peter,      soon more boats will appear for my foreground interest requirements.

Hopefully, it got better as the day wore on.

You're welcome.
That does help for sure.

It didnt really,   and again we get rain thats not forecast,   it's all getting a bit boring for planning ones flying.

Montfrooij Posted at 4-10 10:53

If they dont I'll have to email Wendy and find out whats going on.

Oh, Shes the secretary at the yacht club.

Today would have been the 5th day here without rain but I woke up to the sound of raining coming down on top of the boat.  At least we had 4 amazing weather days in a row.  

I'm hoping the weather breaks for you so you can break in that Avata 2 that I'm guessing you'll have by Friday.

I hope Friday will be the day,    super happy for the price,  for once it's gone down not up.

That's a rarity with DJI for sure.

It's looking really good so far.  The leaks seems to be pretty right on this time.

I just watched a couple of unboxing videos and now I really wish I could fly FPV.  Oh well, just have to settle for watching FPV videos.  It's weird because I can watch videos without getting dizzy or vertigo.

The new goggles also support watching 3d movies and 360 panos,   but Ive not yet found any examples of that.

DowntownRDB Posted at 4-11 05:27

It works out about £200 cheaper for the 3 battery combo than the pre sale price of the Avata 1.

I'm not big on 3D movies but I love looking at 360 panos.

Ive not tried either,   but it does open up some other options to try with it.

Wow, that's a really good deal then.

More options are always good.
