After only one week with the DJI Phantom 4 quadcopter, I am hooked. The output is outstanding and the possibilities seem limitless. I wanted to share just a couple of this weeks efforts with you.

Let’s pretend, for the sake of argument, that you’ve wondered where I’ve been. That you’ve noticed our conspicuous absence over here on the blog. That you’ve checked in on us, often, only to discover that nothing new had been documented since October. That you’ve clicked and heard the crickets. Well, suffice it to say, we(…)
