Thanks, Mike. I wondered the same thing about the gas guy, so I asked the other 4 couples on the shuttle bus back to the airport...but no one else had had a problem.

That's for the real review. I've been on the fence about buying a portable thermal printer for awhile now and have narrowed it down to the M832, but I still wasn't sure, Your video answered most if not all the questions I had and showed an unsanitized demo of the printer in action, good or bad. Thanks for the video, it's very much appreciated. I'll order mine tomorrow

Don, Thank You so much for the Hotel Review! Staying in La Fortuna close to the Arenal Volcano is something I definitely want to do someday, your YT channel continues to be one of the best! I booked Malaga Spain again from May29-June12. My older brother forcefully suggested I take a train to Seville and visit the UNESCO sites, I'll do that. Only 1hr45min with a single 4min stop in Cordoba. I'm planning "a friendly Thank you/shout-out video" dedicated to all the "Day1 O.G. Explorers" that continue to inspire me, but I can't upload it until mid June. I'll let you know.

You should probably approach a local college or university to explore their aeronautical engineering options. As an example, Carleton University in Ottawa Canada offers a graduate program specializing in drone applications.

It has a few autonomous moves. You'll have to explore the app to try them.

Hi Don, can one fly an under 250 g drone closer than 30 m from people? There was a guy that flew a mini 4 pro 3 meters from me crossing the walk we were on and almost hitting us in the head.
@DonJoyce3 күн бұрын
There is no specific rule for sub250g drones limiting their proximity to people, BUT the general 900.06 regulation says you cannot fly recklessly putting people at risk. If that person nearly hit you, they broke that rule.

I have the M834 and the flat paper load is AWFUL. You need it to load and pull it from your fingers. Btw you can turn off the printer to get it to stop. When it is loaded you can also open it, ever so slightly, then you can adjust it to be straight.
@DonJoyce4 күн бұрын
Good tips...thanks.
@4refgwergdfg4 күн бұрын
@@DonJoyce No worries it is a great printed for rolls but yeah for flat paper it isn't the best. I would say that if someone was setting it up as a main printer for flat paper, they should get the "Folding sheets" costs around the same but imagine a long line of paper that is zig zagged. It will pull the next sheet through and keep it constantly loaded with paper. You would just need to load it, open it slightly to make that first sheet perfectly straight so it doesn't go off at a weird angle after a while.

I've just bought my first drone, and it's a second-hand Potensic Atom fly more kit. It has only been flown for 20 minutes, looks absolutely brand new... And the price that I paid for it, you wouldn't even buy a dij mini 2 drone on its own without a controller and battery... And I couldn't be happier!

I'm watching this video on January 30th, 2025, while on vacation in Oahu, Hawaii. Yesterday, I flew my DJI Mini 3 Pro drone into a palm tree, about thirty feet up. It settled into the pit where the branches come together. There's no climbing it, and I don't think even a strong wind will ever blow it out. Looking on the bright side, this is the fourth time I crashed it.1) Once while flying sideways into a tree and it fell into a lake near Salmon Arm, B.C. I dried it out and it flew the next day. 2) Another time, (again, flying sideways) I hit a spruce tree, and it got stuck at a winery in B.C. I asked the staff to keep an eye out for it. Six weeks later, after being outside in the rain, I received a text that they found it and mailed it to me. After a little cleaning, it flew again. 3) Another time I set it on a rock next to the ocean while I was taking pictures with my camera. When I turned around after five minutes, I noticed that the tide had come in and half submerged my drone bag. I had to replace the controller, but the drone still flew after flushing out the salt water and drying it. So now I'm left with two batteries and charging hub, a controller, spare props, and a carrying case... if anyone needs them, I'm open to offers. 😊 I guess it's time to upgrade to the Mini 4 Pro. The moral of the story, avoid flying in sport mode when your sensors turn off, avoid flying sideways, even with the Mini 4 Pro, always be super aware of your surroundings, and get the "DJI CARE" to replace you lost or crashed drone. HAPPY FLYING.
