[QUOTE="Barbara, post: 107463, member: 14873"] Winter doesn't even start till tomorrow, officially, and I'm already suffering a double dose of PMS (Parked Multi-rotor syndrome and Parked Motorcycle Syndrome). Daily high temperatures are barely making it to the mid -teens (Celsius) and the only time I seem to get out is to clear snow from the driveway. :( Actually, for the lsat few weeks I've been getting out to a local schllo auditorium with the local RC Modelling Club to do some indoor flying. While it's nice to get Sparky air-born, it does not present a huge challenge. Flying my toy drone, which can do a few acrobatic maneuvers, is almost more fun. But you can only do so many flips before that starts to get old too. Then I saw these things:[ATTACH alt="1576867257343.png"]12123[/ATTACH] The three teardrop shaped items are sensors that talk to an app on your phone via bluetooth, and the round item is a IR transmiiter that you attach to your drone, or whatever.
