If you get LKTOP Air 3 200W charger hub and use your 120W charger to power it, you'll like it. This charger hub charges all three batteries simultaneously unlike DJI charger hub which can only charge one battery at a time. I bought two 120W USB-C charger bricks for about $40 to power LKTOP 200W hub charger. The charger hub has the same functions as DJI and more. It can put batteries in storage charge and displays batteries capacity in %, temperature, Watt. Go check it out.

Cheers for the video much appreciated. Great work and a massive help! The FASK2 pack I got has the outer seal as well but I didn't see it in your video? Did I miss something?

About to purchase air 3 and did not know it didn’t come with charger, in my opinion that’s like selling a car with no wheels.Its ridiculous no charger .Good information mate 👍

hey champ, hows the alternator holding up?

I had to buy a charger after, for the price of the unit it should have been included as it’s a vital piece. I think that is a disgrace to be honest

Put you gold ring under it then you will know what it sounds like

Bait pumps are great for sucking up material for panning. You can use them to get right in down to the bedrock.

Your beard makes a great wind sock lol. I'm able to see the wind direction by watching it.

I was in the same boat. Bought the DJI Air 3 from JB HiFi 2 weeks ago. Had to use my standard phone charger (10w). and it took 4 days to charge the 3 batteries. I try to avoid fast charging as I have been reading everywhere that fast charging does shorten battery life. Of course manufacturers want you to fast charge so you can buy more batteries sooner. For now, I purchased a "Click PD30W" charger from Bunnings (I/N: 0531987) $9.95AUD. Took just under 2 hrs to charge a flat battery which I'm am very happy with. Hopefully a 30w charger will be less harsh on the battery. Would love a battery expert to chime in here if I'm wrong.

Very cool!

I will be in the same boat as you when I get my first yacht

How much was the boat including any repairs? ( Sorry if it was mentioned I didn't catch it).

Where did you get the canvas hood that fits over the pop top?

How did you construct the pole supporting your solar panel?

Hi mate , Hey at about 16.25 on this vid you had the target just under that long old branch i reakon , Gold Id say ,you where to far to the left, Frog

No gold but your technique is on point... Obviously you had a great teacher..!

I would think that would be a good way to get a hernia, it looks like you know what your doing, just need to pass over the right spot, my other hobbi apart from hoping to sail some time soon is gold slucing, with a river sluice, I think Creswick is not far from you, and they also detect there as well, your garenteed to see gold, slucing in Slatey creek. Even just a pan and shovel. KZbin is your friend with that sport as well. Great to see you both out in nature on an adventure.

Hey mate, what the metal detector you're using?

You'll go even faster with better sail trim

Absolute hero

KZbin will not teach you how to sail. Only experience will teach you. KZbin will make you familiarize you with what to do.

The sailing learning curve is much steeper when racing in any conditions, great to see you getting started.

Was great to meet you. That sure was a rough sail.

That was a hard race glad to see you guys finished.

That was interesting, and you finished in front of a few Farr 6000s and the odd Sonarta 7s as well. Hard to know what you will be upto next. Nice bit of water as well

Great video - I love the honesty. I have a big family too and this has convinced me that I'd either need a bigger boat or would just aim for solo sailing!

I'll save you some time, folks. Here's the deal - the Fly More Combo doesn't come with a power supply for the drone. DJI doesn't mention it clearly on the box, and it's not in the inclusions list. So, despite spending $2,350 on the drone, you'll need to buy a separate power supply, costing around $129 AUD. DJI recommends their charger, but good luck finding it easily. I had to get a third-party charger with USB PD for faster charging. It's frustrating, and I think DJI needs to address this issue. Share your thoughts below and let's make sure DJI hears us.

Can't fix itself. When it's time it's time. 🍻🤙🏽

It’s costly but does a beautiful job.

You nailed that one Barry. Great work, I wish I had taken the time to learn from experts as I’ve made many mistakes. One thing I have done is using self amalgamating tape on the spreaders. It lasts a lot longer and looks nice and tidy.

Hey Folks, have you considered joining a Yacht Club like Geelong Trailable Yacht Club we have a few Ultimate 18’s there and it would help with your rig tuning . Also what better way to get your skills up with a group of like minded people who can assist and provide assistance on the water. We have options for cruising and racing. Westerly’s can be difficult at Geelong if you’re new to Sailing. With your shrouds measure them to confirm their lengths from each side. Looks like you have done pretty well. Last comment is look into the Ultimate Association they have a large knowledge base for your yacht. Hopefully will see you on the water. Regards Shaun.

Hi, my cable snapped on my ultimate 18 yesterday! lucky it was still over the trailer so no damage! What diameter rope did you use and where did you get it from? I am in your area based on the lake.

I use a Bluettit portable power station model EB3A which has a 100 watt USB-C port. I mention this because inevitably you will take the drone to remote locations. Relying on your car battery and some cheap 12v adapter is not a good idea. I highly recommend investing in one of the modern compact LiFePO4 power stations. Yeh I know... another expense, but they are worth it. Good for around the house too. If the drone came with charger it would be annoying if you already owned a charger... for example, I would still use my Bluettit to charge, NOT one that might come with the drone. So I'd be complaining I paid for something I didn't want! That said, the box should clearly state "charger not included". :-)

do you have a laptop charger? ipad charger?

Love your videos. That is one cute little boat. We started out in Corio Bay too but your way of trailering around the country and putting the boat in the water anywhere looks fantastic.Keep up the great adventures and be safe.

You don’t need to file the alternator to make it fit the bottom mount. There is a bush in the bracket that you can slide out to give you the extra 0.7mm that you need. To do it I pushed a smaller bolt through the bolt hole then affixed two nuts. I then adjusted them so each one was at either end of the gap in the bracket, and then just tightened the one that was pressing against the bush so it pushed it back into the bracket. Removed the nuts and bolt and the alternator slotted right in. But boy I had some problems with the top bolt.

"promo sm"

We’ve tried to find devil’s playground at toolangi and had no luck. Any chance you could give us some directions. Cheers.

Peel looked lovely again. We are hoping to get there for a few days after Christmas. P.s we ran aground last time we went out. Entirely my fault, Pat was steering and I was streaming the AFL Grand final. She said I think we are getting shallow and for a moment I had a brain malfunction and thought the colours on Navionics was inverted ..... Gets exciting pretty quick!

Nice work Barry. As the saying goes, there are two types of sailor, those that have run aground and those that are lying.

Loving the sailing vids, specially when you bring it up to my sailing grounds. I also have a trailer sailor that im learning on, so can totally relate to you guys. I just dont have my mistakes on video so they never happened 😉

Dont be disappointed, or beat your selves up, your out there doing and on track, rember when you headded out of St Helens and Rachell said about the other boats leaning over and said , " is that what we will be doing " you all have come a long way and doing great things. Cario bay will be very tame after Peel Island, and you will get a better tan from the moon in Geelong. Do you have a compass mounted, to steer to ?

By the way, the squiggly sand is from a lugworm. It's pretty much the indigestible leftovers from their dinner, so sand poo. 😂

Enjoying your vids mate. Just got myself a little sailing dinghy so I might see you out on the bay. My shout for a rum. 😂🏴‍☠️

At the start it looked like the girls were taking over the boat, then you caught the fish, showed who is the hunter and who is the catheters. Rach seemed suprised you caught something, lol. Making them walk on the casurina nuts the next day was a bit rough. I hope that is not a spoiler alert for other viuers.
