Not around much but still kicking. I have been busy learning how to fly my big boy toy and edit video. This is a video of the falls about 1/2 mile down the road from me filmed with my Yuneec Q500+ Typhoon. Quadcopter.

Don, that is simply spectacular and I hope you will post more! Amazing what you can do with today's technology! That set up must have taken a good chunk off your pension cheque! What is the range of your drone?
Looks like a great hobby but I hope you have not abandoned sausage making! I remember one guy once explaining why he left BC to work in Fort Mac "Ya can't eat the scenery!"

Thanks guys, ya it bit a big hole in the pension check but we all need toys 
The video feed back to me is suppose to be 500 meters. The control range is much farther. If it ever got out of control range it has a function that it will return to the home position and land with in 20 feet of where it took off. (RTH)
I have some modified antennas on order that will double the range and if I order the boosters it will get 4 miles plus but I don't think I really need that much range.
