My Drone has been in the hospital getting two new IMU sensors. This is my first test on the train since my drone is back.

It's working perfect Roger. The sound was right on. I even liked the way you planted the deer at various places to add to the action. I'll See you on the 6th.

:grin: Being "technically challenged", I'm not aware of what an IMU sensor is, but whatever, it apparently works. You've spoiled us all with your drone views. Keep 'em coming!

neither did I but Google helped

From Wiki "An inertial measurement unit (IMU) is an electronic device that measures and reports a body's specific force, angular rate, and sometimes the magnetic field surrounding the body, using a combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes, sometimes also magnetometers."

It was hard to talk them deer into doing some action video.

Thanks Tom for the information. All I knew is it did not work.

Looks like you haven't lost your touch with the forced hiatus. Keep them coming

I went to Antonito this morning to get some more practice in.
