Good stuff, really awesome.

That's where it's at, to be able to fly our drones and heli's with others and enjoy the great comraderie. . .
Flying alone is fantastic, but flying with friends, multiplies the enjoyment, ten fold.

that music totally hit me in the heart.   Did I hear a little bit of "South Hampton" in there?  Great video.  Sure wish there were more quadcopter pilots around us.  We belong to an RC club, but they kind of look at quadcopters like the one legged stepchild of their fancy airplane club.  Thank you for sharing.  Love seeing clips from "the old country".

You should join an RC helicopter field, where drones are frequently seen. Ha

Thanks.  I love being back in Toledo, but they've always been 20 years outdated.   Videos like this make me want to visit Scotland and Ireland.  Its where my family originates from.

I hope your biggest wishes come to fruition.

Wouldn't that be awesome, to travel over there? ;-)

Aloha Toorboy,

     A nice interlude.  Not your normal fair but it looked like a fun day.  Good to see you are uploading the 4K videos now.  Love the sharpness and clarity, even with my terrible Internet.

You need to have some adequate space between each bird, allowing for safe, and stress free flight.

But crash into a few of your friends and you will learn this the hard way.


You must keep the RC away from your buddies, why not space out your flight path too.

There's six of us that fly together on occasion. We just agree between us who has what altitude with 25 feet of separation, works out pretty good.

Aloha Toorboy,

     Actually DaVinci has a really good manual.  It is 1000 pages but each subject is well indicated and it is very easy to use.  The output is good to on that one.  Good explanations and "how-to" for everything.

     Well, stay busy!  It looks like the weather is still holding for you.

Aloha and Drone On!

There are drones of many colors, that cost far less.

But then, you'd have to learn, how to fly. ;-)

Aloha Toorboy,

     That type of manual does not beg to be read like our Phantom manuals do.  The DaVinci type of manual allows you to look up specific actions or solutions and using the .pdf digital format makes it real easy.  The Control F function finds what ever word you type in.  Look at the context the word is in and if it looks right read that section.  Some words are listed all the time, so it helps to use a different word.

     A lot of the video talk these guys do leaves me confused.  But when you look it up in the DaVinci manual that information is explained and then you can use it if you need to.  Since you are soon in the cold season, it will be a good time to try it.  I still have not even looked at all the sections, but it still has been real useful.

Aloha and Drone On!
