Flying out the same day as the trestle shoot, and taking vids of the waterfalls in the Gordon Creek wash, just upstream from the trestle. I'll never learn! Fixated on the video screen, I wasn't watching Snarky and backed him into some trees. An hour of searching through willows, weeds, and Russian Olive trees, and I found him. The gimbal was flopping around, and when I put on a new battery I had no control over the gimbal, and no picture through the lens. Crap!
Put him away for the weekend while I researched somewhere to send it for repair. Finding a likely fixer, I went to wrap him for shipping today, and the gimbal wasn't flopping any more. Put on a battery and all seems normal. I'll post in discussions and see if anyone has any ideas on what happened. Anyway, enjoy a little video of the falls (out here in the arid West, any water is nice, any waterfall is spectacular!)
