The Mavic is a great drone. I went to the Skydio 2 with the gps beacon... been using it this winter, it’s pretty cool. Anyway, here’s a pic from today!

I just threw this together, so you could see different angles. Youtube is killing the quality tho lol.Quote:

Ive never heard of it, but just looked it up. Looks amazing. Looks like they have the active track perfected. Mavic better tighten up their pricing before Skydio puts them out of business lol.Quote:

It is amazing what the S2 can do though, maneuvering through tight spaces, avoiding small branches, it has intelligent, almost 360 degree view all around. Crazy tech!
Ahh, just talking about this get me all warm and fuzzy inside, cant wait to get out! One of our local smaller lakes is iced out finally, it'll be surfable in a couple of weeks, although we did get snow again today, projected to get 6 " in Twin cities, rrrg.
I propose we have a separate drone thread. Our beloved sport is so well complemented by hobby cinematography. Having a wakeboat and owning good videography equipment and technique go together like toast and butter. After all, we do this for the memories and we are always striving to grab that perfect image or video of the kids first ropeless surf, or the wifes first wipeout. Good drone videography can be very important tool in our sport.
There is so much to learn about it, how to implement it, bad experiences we can share to help others prevent the same mistakes, such as loosing the drone. I myself am going to be looking at how to make a homemade lightweight polystyrene landing skid in case drone lands in water. There are a lot of crafty guys in this forum that can help trouble shoot. ANd there are so many great drones at different price points to meet your expectations and how much you want to spend. Not everyone has to spend 1000K 4 a drone. I think this would eventually become a usefull resource thread for us.
Waiting to get out there [emoji41]

Had to scratch the itch and get out on Lewisville today. Was nice for the first 30 mins. Then wind started blowing over 20mph.
