Yikes. CaddX seem to be getting desperate in their attempts to compete with DJI, and they're really shooting themselves in the foot with this sort of behaviour: youtube.com/watch?v=c8aIjL3-GIM

I don't want to buy into the DJI FPV system, but the way things are going I don't feel good about buying any more CaddX kit either.

Springtime repairs in preparation for some serious flying time.

The camera on my 5” quad had gotten knocked way out of focus and the lens adjustment rings were solidly jammed. Was halfway to ordering a replacement before I got a little help from someone with parrot pliers to unjam it and was able to re-focus and lock the lens. Hopefully it will not vibrate back out of focus.

I also noticed my backup 3.5” freestyler had the battery connector holder break somewhere along the way. Not a very practical bit to replace since it would take resoldering the cables so I’ll see if I can get away with some superglue first since it’s not really a integral bit and is unlikely to take too many hits.

Shortly before the Easter holidays, #Russia attempted a massive assault on the #Ukrainian positions. More than 300 people, 40 units of armoured vehicles, 3 tanks, and about 10 buggies were involved, which moved in 6 columns.

However, as soon as the enemy columns started to move, #FPV operators and artillerymen from #Artan Special Unit burned the first three #IFVs eight kilometres
