Coastal Flight with a Dilemma at Sea!!!

The other beautiful day on my short break in Norfolk.
I have updated my Nano Goblin to the DJI O3 video system allowing for lovely 4K video to be captured along with HD video transmission.
Used one battery to test it's flight and get some Autolevel and Autotune done, followed with some beauty flights up and down the beach.
2nd fresh charged battery fitted and I set off over the sea to fly over the offshore windfarm, however events threw me a wobbler!

Oh wow, nice save! Lovely flying too.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Thanks 👍. I have to say, I was quite surprised!

[@AerialWaviator]

Great cinematic views of the coast. That was an unexpected turn of events at the end. Glad it all worked out. A good reminder, as the hotter days of summer will soon be here.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Thanks, I wanted it to be serene before the panic!!!!

[@ClubCrafteria]

Enjoyed watching the beauty of the place. NIcely captured the views

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@ZaksterBlue]

So serene to start with! 😄

[@Caroline_Tyler]

And then ... A little heart stopping

[@Nastee_FPV_]

Wow, bet that one had you spooked! 🤣 But you brought her back, that's all that matters! 👏

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Definitely!! Changed made to hopefully spare my nerves

[@maxun1]

Just beautiful

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Thank you! Cheers! I worked hard to get the sound effects added .

[@Drone.vision]

Beautiful, love the low flying shots of the sea , great flight, well done 👏👏

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Thank you, the nano Goblin is a super wing to fly.

[@Drone.vision]

@@Caroline_Tyler you’re welcome 🙂 it looks amazing to fly and great quality footage aswell, I’m impressed 👏

[@SimonsDroneChannel]

Great video.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@CurryKitten]

I predict that plane will be getting a few air intakes cut in and directed at that O3 unit! I bet that one had the heart pounding!

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Yep! It sure did!! two big air vents added, a nice long test flight validated the additional cooling.

[@genericfpv]

rolling hills 😂 jez nailbiting, glad to get that back, but nice big adrenaline rush!

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Tell me about it! I was just hoping for the error message to not be the flight controller!

[@litterbug4023]

Fun times! Looks as flat there as it is here.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

All reclaimed land, super flat.

[@DroneSeekersInternational]

Nice bit of footage from our local coast

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Thanks :)

[@DroneBiker]

That's a flat coast. Nice rural place at sea Caroline. 👌

[@Caroline_Tyler]

It sure is!

[@johnnymac26]

Nails bitten but happy ending lol

[@Caroline_Tyler]

We all love a happy ending :)

[@Videolinquency]

Amazing, and the nail bite music was an ingenious choice! Apart from cooling, did the air unit entail major space or balance issues in the tiny Nano G?

[@Caroline_Tyler]

I had a previous version with a vista vtx and a peanut mounted above. Swapping these two for the O3 only increased the weight by 10gms and CofG was easy to obtain.

[@spartan3299]

Very nice! What goggles are you using and do you have an INAV OSD working? Well I see you have a limited osd there. Love my Nano G but still fly it analog, run hdzero on the old original ZOHD Dart. Because of the cost of the 03, I want to include its own FC pan/tilt/servo harness to be able to more easily move it between a couple planes.

[@Caroline_Tyler]

Making a swappable pod for O3 does make sense as it's certainly quite pricey. On the nano Goblin, it would be too heavy, keeping it light is the only way to end up with a good flying model.

[@DadsRCHangar]

Brilliant Caroline, was getting relaxed at the start, you went so far out to sea, very brave. 🫡

[@Caroline_Tyler]

I had loads of battery which was a good job as the wind turned around and I was fighting a 20kph wind on the return!
