Those are some cool builds! You did the 3D Printing as well? Are you using a FPV headset for those flights??

I did the printing, yes! That was a hobby that was born from another hobby. Equally as addictive and expensive.

I am using a set of Fatshark HDO goggles. Expensive, but the image is amazing.

I don’t do well with that sort of thing! I tried the DJI goggles, lasted maybe 5 minutes. It’s just too disorienting for me.

I hadn’t used my printer for about two months, now I find all the rolls of Hatchbox I bought are brittle. I want to get a hardened steel nozzle to try some other materials.

This is some of my worst flying, but I was running a recovery rig and flying in between calls (so I couldn't get too creative). Awesome time at the Vorra race some weeks ago.

Part 107 drone pilot and photogrammetrist here. Mostly work with UltraCAM(450MP) fixed wing imagery though. The airpsace in NJ/NY area is really busy.

Need to redo with the Ram, but you can see what I did when I first got my DJI Spark...

That's pretty awesome - I'm thinking to sell my Mavic Pro to get a Spark. I fly a lot less these days though back in the day I flew both commercial and hobby. I don't know if I ever got tracking to work so smoothly

You can get a Spark fairly cheap now with the Mavic Mini out now replacing the Spark. The Mini is nice, but not the same.

Yeah i've seen how much the price has dropped; I also have a 3DR Iris+ for heavier payload, but at this point I need to sell it all off and lighten up the fleet haha

Awesome!

That is the hardcover I thought I was getting from the factory -- what "model" is that? I got the soft tri-fold and don't like how it sticks up above the bed itself.

So you broke the main rule of "do not operate from a moving vehicle?"

No, it has a follow me mode...no "operation" was in play...I also maintained line of site via mirrors and sunroof.

Ps - Chilax...there were no people present, no harm was done to any dirt roads or blades of grass...
