We just got back from a week on Lower Matecumbe Key, Islamorada, Florida. We did some fishing but not a lot of catching I had my QuadCopter and Gopro with me. Here are some photos.
We were going to try to get to the Dry Tortugas also. After starting to plan it I was not comfortable with the fuel quantity (65 gallons) of our 240 SunDeck. I think it is about a 120 mile round trip with no fuel at Ft Jefferson. Have fun when you go! I will get some photos and videos of Islamorada.

What is the max RPM now?
Has it had a compression test done lately?
"Have the neighbors been calling out the Dept of Homeland Security about the "drones" flying over their houses?
Very cool photo. Makes me want to learn how to fly one of those things."
No complaints yet, most people enjoy watching it as it has really cool night lights on it! Very easy to fly...
Taken with my GoPro B3 and quadcopter. The quadcopter was hovering at 200 feet taking a picture every 2 seconds above our lot, this was one of the best. FYI, the bright red building to the lower left is Dairy Queen :grin: You can see the causeway mid left (6 dollar toll), the Island is pointing...
Thanks, I was able to fly it right out of the box with no previous experience. I do not have a view finder also known as FPV (First Person View). That will probably be my next add on.
