I ended up chasing cars like a dog on meth, and seeing how late into the dark I could fly,.. until the mosquitoes found me. More attempting to make things look decent in DaVinci Resolve. This uses the 4x Upscaling feature, some color grading, etc. Nothing went smoothly, but my computer is getting pretty old. ::Gear List:: Stock Eachine H8 Blue Board (w/ prop guards and other superfluous plastic removed) ^^^ w/Silverware firmware (31.10.16 stock) CL-0615-17 Coreless Motor ("INSANELY FAST") ^^ This doesn't make much if any difference imho; stock motors feel just as good. Once again, the only thing that made the H8 fly any better is the Silverware firmware, period! They're on clearance, so I tried 'em; https://www.airbladeuav.com/collectio...

Three days of "cool" stuff, and crashes. Actually, just a bunch of "cool" stuff, cause crashes r definitely "cool" bra'. The Skyzone goggle DVR sometimes records audio out of sync, cause why perfect a product before you release it, right? I'm too lazy to fix it for a SD video (hypocritical?--probably). Yes, that was a tree I landed in, after doing dumb things... Successfully recovered with a dowsing rod (Taranis RSSI) and my significant other's enhanced visual pattern recognition... and my leatherman's saw along with a tree branch that gave it's life for me to make a long pokey thing (sorry tree(s). I had fun... rate mode feels natural, finally. My Atom had been entirely submerged in nasty flood water in a field the day before this... so it wasn't 100% for this weekend. Lots of q-tips and rubbing alcohol. I lost a front post where the frame was designed to fail (genius! now I have to buy a new one right?). I also knocked the IR filter loose inside the camera, both during collisions with blue goal posts. Motors are fine, as long as their crappy solid wires survive the coming frame transplant. Still have plenty of props, though 4-less nylon screws than I need. Arms are de-laminated on the edges, and some of the carbon fiber is now in my finger thanks to this. Nothing special. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNa2P6MCiO0
