Had a little mini meet today with a few guys and hit a new personal record of 8.1 miles. I couldn't believe it, on 400mw too.. Looked like I had a good bit more range on the video too and a little bit more range on the batteries. Should be able to hit 10 miles on this rig as it is and I'll be trying to very soon.

So, I am doing a little something different. I am taking pictures straight down at 3 second intervals and then stitching them together into a larger photo.
Hope you guys can handle this, if you can zoom in and look around. You might need to open in a different window to do so.
