Agreed, did a few miles on Tuesday, going out again this evening for the same. It's actually hitting a high of 63 here today which is amazing! Been a while since I've been able to run without gloves! :icon17:

He went off of old plans for when we first built it. :eek: We get to the job site expecting this equipment is out in the open as the old plans say. Well........the company had built a little building for the equipment. It just covered it. It was so tight inside that you could barely walk around or climb over it without hitting you head. It was bad. :eek: I'm the foreman on the job. So I called the office and said that the roof has to come off for us to do the job. Manager said do what it takes to do the job. It's a parts and labor contract. :yum: Well............I rented a crane and crane operator, and put it on my company credit card. :eek: All $20,000 worth. So we took the roof off the building to do the job. Man............did I catch chit when I got back. :rofl2: We got the job done in time too. :tup:

lol...biggest single thing I expensed was a manlift, but that was just for a couple days.. My biggest expense report was when I did extra work for the company. They had asked me if I could help out in socal to open up a new site for a month or two. Said I could come home every weekend on the companys dime. That month turned to two, to three to four months. By this time, they had hired someone to do my job in the bay area. My boss came to me one day and said... "dude, you see the writing on the wall? Theyre gonna ask you if you would 'like' to transfer to socal. They already have someone doing your job.. you know what choices you have!" If I remember, my expense came out to just over 35k (hotel, car, food airfare to come home on the weekends for 4 months), plus they gave me 4k for moving expenses, and I got a 10k raise/promotion for transferring. My sisters family lived in socal so it all worked out. Just wish they wouldve told me sooner that I would be transferred so I couldve moved out of my apartment sooner, couldve made more money.

In the short term, i HATED it. Had to leave my friends, broke up with a gf at the drop of a hat. But in the long term, most definitely worked out. I still hate socal though...

When I first got it, my biggest fear was losing it. Before the phantom, my brother got me one of those toy drones that does flips, no gyro, cheap camera. Those were pretty hard to control when you lost the signal. But with the Phantom, just started off hovering and learning how to control it close by.
Maybe five minutes.. Furthest I flew it was like 1.5 miles. With the go home feature and safety settings, its no big deal. Just make sure you have the minimum height set (to avoid trees, power lines etc...) and you have your home point set.

I forgot what software I used. Its on my old laptop. Ask the forum for free editing software. I didnt edit because I probably have ADD...so simple upload and back ground music was enough for me. haha
