I recently encountered another minor issue with my Flywoo Explorer drone. The buzzer got stuck on, and I had to improvise a fix with my car keys while traveling light. Despite this, I enjoyed a good flight, pushing the drone to around 750m away from home using just one omni-directional antenna.

The flight had its thrills, including a couple of moments where the video cut out. These hiccups are all part of the excitement of FPV flying, making each flight an adventure.

I finally got my drone off the ground! After some initial hiccups with the configuration, I was able to take it out for a spin. The wind was a bit strong, but the drone handled it well, reaching speeds of up to 40km/h into the wind and a thrilling 110km/h with a tailwind.

I made several upgrades to the standard model, including a Caddx Baby Turtle for better video quality and a Rush Tank Mini for improved long-range video transmission. With a CNHL Ministar 4s 850mAh battery, I got about 7.5 minutes of flight time, which I'm happy with considering the windy conditions. I'm looking forward to seeing how it performs on a calmer day.

I recently purchased the Flywoo Explorer drone, which is renowned for its quality despite a few issues. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from smooth, as the drone hasn't even taken to the skies yet.

I encountered a series of mishaps, from buying the wrong version to damaging components during soldering. Each setback led to more orders and weeks of waiting. However, I'm determined to get it flying, and I'm hopeful that the next attempt will be the charm.

I recently took my drone out for a spin after a while and tried out new props, but unfortunately, I wasn't as steady as I thought. I gave a bit too much throttle and crashed into a branch, which my Marmotte would have handled easily. It's all part of the hobby, though the waiting for parts is the worst bit.

I've got a few drones on the shelf at the moment, including my Marmotte waiting for a new motor, and my original drone, the RealAcc Martian II, which looks like a heap of parts. I've also been trying out new props, which give me more flight time but require more throttle to take off. I'm still experimenting with different props and motors to find the perfect combination.

I recently shared a set of 3D-printed brackets on Thingiverse, designed to hold a pegboard using command strips. I was thrilled to discover that in just five days, the model had been downloaded over 1,600 times. It was an unexpected and delightful surprise to see so many people finding it useful.

I recently tackled an issue with Single Page Applications (SPAs) and linking to specific pages. By default, web servers don't handle this well, leading to 404 errors. For instance, trying to access https://example.com/users/ would fail because the server looks for a users directory.

To resolve this, I configured NGINX to redirect all requests to index.html, allowing the SPA to handle the routing. This setup ensures that links like https://example.com/users/ work seamlessly, providing a better user experience and maintaining clean URLs.
