I had my drone out this morning to train myself on some of its features. One is panorama mode. All I have to do is define the area of the shot by pointing the camera gimbal at the upper left and bottom right corners of the panorama, then touch Start.

For those interested in an entry level drone, the ATOM is a great drone that sells for around $380 USD. A few C&P posts about my experience flying the ATOM. June 28 Had fun flying my new Potensic Atom drone today. I've never flown a drone before, so let my son give me a quick demo flight with him at the controls on how it works. Much faster and easier learning to pilot a drone having him doing a demo flight first. After that quick demo I did a couple of prac

Do you need a licence or permissions to fly your drone in Thailand? Nice pics, by the way 😀

Greetings Monkeywatchers, showaddy crap to yet another month, and welcome to another fertile crop of futile crap. Let’s dig in. A Thai family were injured after a pickup truck landed on top of their vehicle after falling from a bridge that was still under construction. A spokesman for the building company responsible said “With the benefit of hindsight, it might have been prudent to finish building the bridge before reopening the road.” Experts, you gotta love ‘em. Following the arrest of an Indian tourist for groping a woman on Beach Road, police have decided to charge him with the
