You take that photo?

That was really cool. I always hope to catch fish or something when I get out on the ocean but never have. Nice work.

The photo really shows the drop offs. You think they would want to post some warning signs.

I enjoyed the video. Thanks.

I had atti mode kick in more often lately. So I did the IMU and compass cal. I have been flying sparkybutt with more confidence. Have not had any atti mode issues. I think I will cal the IMU and compass at least once a year. I know they say do it only when spark says you need one. I have not...
