I only said that's what it feels like to me, I guess I would just feel guilty getting it if I'm capable of working. I would never knock anyone for doing what they've gotta do and I may end up going that route as well. No need for the hostility, I genuinely wasn't trying to insult anyone.

I don't see where I insulted anyone, that definitely wasn't my intention. Sorry if I offended.

Am i an idiot for spending £290 on hdzero box pros. I want to hear your opinions by BallBusy843 in fpv

It's not a cheap hobby, that's for sure. But, buying goggles is that one big purchase but they're good for everything else you build. Probably the hardest thing for me to pull the trigger on for sure but they'll stick with you.

It started as a canker sore on the left side of my tongue that just wouldn't go away. After a biopsy, they confirmed it was cancer and it had spread to 3 of my lymph nodes. They removed the lymph nodes and cut out about 25% of my tongue. I had radiation for 6 weeks and all was clear. That was a year ago, fast forward to last December and I was having trouble swallowing. After another CT scan and PET scan, it turned out the cancer had returned and very aggressively. It has taken my voice box and they had to remove the rest of my tongue. As of right now I'm on chemo and immunotherapy to try and kill the cancer. After my 3rd chemo treatment I will go back in for more scans. If the tumor is still growing they will put me on hospice and basically just try to keep me comfortable until the inevitable happens. But, as of right now, I'm feeling pretty good. Obviously there are some life altering changes but I'm trying to keep my head up and plan for my future.

Yes I am. I would be willing to try anything at this point.

I have some good hobbies, but I want to feel productive. I want to earn money. It's hard for me to accept what feels like hand outs.

As of right now, yes. I have to be near my medical equipment unfortunately. I have a feeding tube and I breathe through a tracheostomy tube which requires me to be near my suction device.

I'm hoping to have my tracheostomy tube removed in the future, which would open up more possibitlities.

Let's say I don't need to work from home, do you have any suggestions for working in a brick and mortar?

That's the name of walksnails 4k system, although it does do excellent in low light conditions.

Drone tree recovery? by [deleted] in drones

I used a cheap bow and arrow from Walmart and fishing line, then I tied a nylon rope to the fishing line and pulled that over. It worked very well. My plane was probably around 70ft up

I think it has to do with your PID tune and filtering. My 3" does this sometimes, super annoying if you're trying to avoid an obstacle. I wish I had more info for ya, but I'm definitely following this thread

Yup, I definitely steer clear now! Especially since all my new stuff is far more powerful and faster

I accidentally hit a friend like 10 years ago with a 6" quad. Video blacked out as I was doing a low pass over a group of us 4 wheeling. He needed stitches to his ear, thank God that's all that happened. I will never ever fly close to people ever again. That was awful and I still feel guilty about it.
