    My sister lives in Texas and every time I go visit her I get nervous about hitting a deer so a front bumper is going to get ordered at the same time. I like C4 Fabs stuff out of South Dakota so might just get everything from them and drive up to get it

    Must be an on-going theme...my truck got hit the week before I got rock sliders. Wouldn't have totally saved it, but may have helped.

    Wyoming is a cool place to fly. Having the drone with to fly during the long weeks on the road is the best medicine. I love flying to music, it's so relaxing and takes the mind off whatever is going on. I hope these videos are somewhat enjoyable. They sure are fun to make.

    Totally should be on your list both my dad and my friend have DJI phantoms and they're a blast and the video is insane quality.

    meh the phantoms video is okay. I've flow phantom 2,3,and 4 pros for films here at tippet. They are okay. Nothing spectacular. Compression is a bit high and its hard to match with nice cameras.

    The Inspire has very nice video quality though.

    Copters are a hobby, video drones like the DJI ones are just an appliance, nothing to really do to them besides buy batteries. I don't have one cause I already find using my camera and editing photos a huge inconvenience haha

    Mavic is the only one I'd waste money on, but really I have zero use for one and borrowing my friend's is cheaper haha

    Again maybe for a high perf copter but the DJI ones are like the city bus of drones, even the fast one is slow and the VR is just gimmicky since you'll never view the video like that again. Just buy the drone and you're done, but I'm not advocating buying one either, I just mooch off of people that have them since I don't wanna take the time to upload or edit anything.

    Flying around taking pictures and video with a Mavic is cool, but being in the drivers seat (goggles) of a FPV racer like Marc's is where its at! Its a true rush, and anywhere can be made fun to fly!

    Mid to late sounds good barring any massive workload at work, be nice to shakedown the new rear and rebuilt front on something other than a fire road.

    Dude, nice transition with the video. Your onto to something here with musical flying. Imagine syncing an entire song to flight. That would be pretty neat
