Wind Beneath My Wings


There's been a high-pressure system move over the UK in the past day or two and our head technician can't resist wheeling the Mark One out of the hangar for a spin. Red letter day as it's the first air we've seen beneath the phone-box. The good news too is that we're running an old set of batteries with only twelve cells at fifty percent thrust, and we've a new set to fit with fourteen.

Combined with this, the Mark Two airframe which I coincidentally finished today is around half the weight. It's still touch and go as to whether the drone will lift my weight, so last plate of fish and chips for me tomorrow evening!
