I want a weather station setup

Right the truth.....:D

My1st flight with my new bird was perfect, couldn't ask for anything else.
I had it set at "beginners mode" was would only go 30 mtr high/distance. The weather was perfect for flying, sunny with a slight breeze. Ran two batteries through it, perfect just perfect;)

I had so many poeple come up to me & asked loads of questions so a lot of the time it was just hovering:(.

Here ya go, a few photos of my inspire:) enjoy.... I did;)

Nice rig! Congrats!
 
I grew up having my pictures took with this one View attachment 23361 and my mom gave it to me and ended up collecting old camera's .The only other Kodac's I got though are these View attachment 23363 ..View attachment 23364 .
Ya know a lot of those older lenses like on that on that 35mm were and still are radioactive due to a coating process. :eek:
Another tidbit of Kodak lore for you. When they started dismantling the buildings it came out that Kodak had a small, secret underground reactor used in making/testing military products. They made lenses and equipment for military and NASA use but also hand grenades and other oddities you wouldn't expect. Kodak was heavily involved in the war machine back in the day. If any of you photo buffs ever get to Rochester be sure and visit the George Eastman house. ;)

Okay, back out to wrestle with more tire changing, I came in for an attitude adjustment. I am fitting new ATV tires on my GEM car the old fashioned way (lots of elbow grease and cursing!), and they are a bear to get on the rims! I'm sweating my bejesus off!
