In an exciting twist of fate, I am heading to the Drone Nationals with Finalglide! We thought a day of practice was called for, so with a little help we set up a mock course and flew laps of it all afternoon.
It was a fantastic arvo, and reminded us all of why we fly - the sheer joy of it, be it laps or freestyle pole dancing, more than makes up for the pain and drudgery of endless building and rebuilding and tuning.
I'm lucky to have such a great bunch of mates to do it with. We always have a laugh along the way, and that's how it should be. Thanks guys.
(and hey, if Chad can use Spiderbait, so can I!)
