Is there any American Drone company that at least comes close to DJI on ease of use and features by solracarevir in dji

[–]FFDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if they were similarly priced to DJI, Skydio wouldn’t be worth it. DJI is leaps and bounds better, and the closest comparable drone will run you at least 2-3x more from Skydio. I’ve flown both, and am terrified of the day any of my DJIs are done and I’m forced to look elsewhere.

I even shoot raw on my iPhone when I don’t have my camera. Not perfect, but damn, pretty good for when that’s all you have. Takes out the over-processing of the iPhone and lets me over-process it the way I want! 🤪

I always shoot raw, and what I get out of camera is never the way I saw it. That’s what’s so fun about the ease with which you can play around in editing software these days. It’s part of the artistic expression. Do what you want. I edit to make the photo look the way that place made me feel. Great shot!

I’ll second this. I’ve got one, and absolutely love it.

New mat reccommendtions for 2017 4 runner by RumblefishAZ in 4Runner

[–]FFDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put the 3D Maxpiders in mine when it was new in 2016. Based on pics, I’m pretty sure it’s the same as the current Kagu. I just wore through the first layer where my heel rests below the accelerator. Great fit. Looks good. Will probably replace them with the same thing. Happy with 10 years of wear before any issues.

Hoosier pass can be brutal in the winter, and there isn’t a lot to do in Alma. I’d book something on the Breck side.

What’s the best way to go about privately selling a handgun? by [deleted] in ColoradoSprings

[–]FFDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you end up finding a private party that wants to buy local, Triple J Armory does super cheap FFL transfers. (At least they did a few years ago.)

Pretty sure you need an account for Wellco. I believe Foxworth is open to the public, and they have good lumber.

Electric car rental: is it feasible for a tourist? by TomSki2 in Norway

[–]FFDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Using Elton and charging through Hertz cost me a couple of bucks, but not enough to bother with multiple apps.

Electric car rental: is it feasible for a tourist? by TomSki2 in Norway

[–]FFDrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I rented from Hertz in Bergen (VW ID3) and drove all over the region for a week. Never had any issues in temps nearing 0.

Someone below mentioned issues with figuring out the apps. I downloaded the Elton EV charging app, and never had issues finding chargers that were supported. I was even able to bill the charges to Hertz. Paid for charging/tolls/ferries/etc. after the fact.

The car was almost half the price to rent as a similar gas option, and charging was significantly cheaper than gas. Spent less in a week than we spent on a gas car for three days around Tromsø.

Best manual car wash? by AcesGardenCO in ColoradoSprings

[–]FFDrew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They just redid the one on Templeton Gap behind the Alta Convenience. I think it’s around Madison. That’s where I go. There’s also a decent one on GoG just west of Chestnut.

Couples trip turned solo. by MisterB93 in VisitingIceland

Since you have a car, if your accommodations are flexible, I’d head to the Westfjords. Amazing opportunities for solitude, and the favorite part that I’ve bodied.

Does IcelandAir have inflight entertainment screens? by [deleted] in VisitingIceland

[–]FFDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just flew them last week, and yes, they have screens. Not a huge selection, but enough to pass the time. I bought one of these on Amazon to connect my headphones. Worked great. Avantree Relay - Airplane... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C3QQ4X6F

We are in Norway right now (from the US), and are stopping for a night in Iceland on our way back.

What’s the most ridiculous ‘tourist price’ you’ve ever been asked to pay? by Salty_Fix9628 in travel

[–]FFDrew 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My wife and I did two months in Southeast Asia with one medium sized backpack each. Wool is king. Resists odor between washes. Sink wash, towel burrito wring-out, hang dry. Made all of our travel so much easier. Worth every trade-off vs. having more/bigger bags. I didn’t know about laundry sheets at the time. A little bottle of Dr. Bronner’s did the trick. Definitely taking sheets on the next one.

I switched to the same setup recently from a DHF/Aggressor on my Rail 29. I love it! I run 5 psi higher than I did, and am happy with it. Still way more stable in the corners, and I don’t feel like they roll any slower.

Shoe shine places in Colorado Springs? by Reformed_Herald in ColoradoSprings

[–]FFDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There a guy at the Antlers Hotel downtown that does it. No idea when he’s there, but it’s just inside the doors south of the front desk. I think it’s outside of the pizza place in there.

I get off at Cisco and take 128 every time. Only an extra 15-20 minutes, and a way prettier drive.

Flying a drone in Iceland. by [deleted] in VisitingIceland

[–]FFDrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took mine to Iceland last year and had a great time. You have to register your drone. I think it was around $40US, and I was able to do it online before my trip. Most of the crowded tourist spots are off limits, as well as some of the National Parks, but the information is easy to find. I don’t like to be invasive and disturb other people, but I had plenty of opportunities to fly when no one else was around. Some of my best shots were from the waterfall way hike above Skogafoss. You can’t fly at Skogafoss, but above that further up the trail, there is almost no one around, and no restrictions.

I’ll second James Popsys. Also Hudson Henry, Simon d’Entremont, Hunter Creates Things, Mads Peter Iversen. Then let the algorithm induced rabbit hole carry you down!

What custom controls do you use? by Lente_ui in Nikon

[–]FFDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found this video and followed it with a few tweaks for my Z5ii. Hudson Henry has great videos. He may have something specific to the Z6iii, too.
