Folks, I love going out and exploring and nothing is off limits. You never know where I might end up next. The drones usually come with me but I realized that some videos just won't benefit from drone video or I may go to a place where drone flying is prohibited. The drones still come with me....just in case.
I hope you enjoy my videos as much as I like producing them. The Centralia, PA video and the Pennhurst videos are my favorites and I had a fun time exploring those places.
I hope the DJI drone repair videos help those in need of a drone repair as these things can be expensive to repair/replace. I learned to repair them from watching CZcams videos so it's my way of giving back to the CZcams community.
Thanks for your interest in my channel and stay curious and keep exploring!

DJI Avata Down! At An Abandoned Missile Launch Site. Can We Find It?
Lets take a look at an abandoned Nike missile site. This will mark the debut of the DJI Avata drone on my channel. I thought I could explore with the drone and not have to get dirty......I was wrong. Things went terribly wrong during this explore. #drone #dji #missile

We haven't really given the recently restored Mavic 2 Pro drone a proper shakedown run. Lets correct that. I originally planned to fly the Mini 3 Pro on this flight but a combination of strong winds and me forgetting to charge batteries forced me to change plans.

Riding The Bafang BBS02 Electric Bike Conversion
I believe it was Lenape in that area. In our family geneology, we discovered an Eastern PA ancestor- a Dutch preacher, who married a Native (we believe most likely Lenape, Unami tribe) in 1720, with her extended family then moving into a house on the same land. It's so interesting to me to learn about the history prior to the formation of our country and all the betrayals.
Great work on the video. I have one I'm going to replace. What is your recommendation on the proper magnetic screw drivers. keep up the good work.
Thank you. I don’t remember where I got my screwdrivers. Something from Amazon should work.
@@DaltonDroneZone thank you
Now watching more of your video this might be the same location lol. They all were pretty much the same set up
I love these abandoned nike missile sites, i never realized how many there were until i started to research. And they all seem to be taken over by nature. You should check out the base i filmed a little while back. Lots of stuff left behind
Never Give Up!! Hope the poison ivy isn't too bad lol. Great footage Mark!
No itching so far Rob. I think I got lucky. Thanks for the comment.
I hit a tree, and the Avata 2 fell into thick woods. I was unable to get through Woods' first day, although I could hear it. (Then battery died) I connected the Goggles to my phone. Opened the FLY App and selected "find my drone." Followed the map and found it
Ah yes. Another way to find a drone. Thanks for the comment.
What an amazing turnout. I always wanna go to this but i always forget when it is. Then i hear about it and see all the photos after its over. Btw your sons knowledge is very impressive. Great video bud
Thank you. I recommend a visit at least once. It’s always the first full weekend in June.
Great production! Good to see some of the memorabilia. I enjoyed the attack scene and such beautiful skies for the planes!
Yes. It was a beautiful day. Thanks for the comment.
Looks like someone drilled a well there long ago.
Get adventure explorer the forest, and finding the General! Thanks for sharing, Mark.
Thanks Ron.
The gereral shovel.
That is an amazing find out in the forest! Well Done Sir!!
Thank you!
Wow, the General looks like crap since I saw it 15yrs ago. The guard was still in place at the time and far less holes. Thanks for sharing 👍👍🇺🇸
In 1974 I worked there as an aide in the Towerview building . I never saw or heard of any abuse. There were 3 main buildings. One for the mental health, one for the mentally retarded (old terminology) and one for the severally retarded patients that couldn't move or feed themselves. They were still using ECT (electric shock therapy). Under the Carter administration, state hospitals were being phased out.
Wow you guys clearly did no prior research.
YES
This works , but only temporarily. The fix doesn’t last and you’ll need redo it every so often. Very annoying defect by DJI
Do you know the reference of the 5.8Ghz chip? Did you take a look at those parts?
I did not. You have to take the shielding off to see it and there was no reason for me to do that.
Thank you for sharing this video. The school is being demolished now. I attended that school during its last years and it’s nice to be able to watch your video and remember. From what I remember, the room you mentioned may be a teachers lounge was used for In School Suspension. The gym also doubled as our cafeteria.
Thank you for the information. It was a really interesting building to explore. We realized as we were walking through those halls that there must have been hundreds upon hundreds of memories made over all those years. It’s a shame the building couldn’t be saved.
hi, is there a twist to get the covers back on of the arms/section that holds the gimbal? I cant get the side where the motor sits back on flush. it kind of doesnt sit right
It’s difficult. You really have to work with those pieces. They will pop back in eventually. I tore one on the Mini 3 Pro rebuild and had to replace it.
@@DaltonDroneZone any tips? Been trying for quite a while. But there still are gaps and I’m kinda afraid to pop the plastic 🥲 thank you for replying
They didn’t show the spiral staircase from the auditorium I’m telling him something was always watching you there.. and that piano that piano likes to play by itself I remember
I didn’t see where the kindergarten classrooms were down the steps .. remember them having big bird and Sesame Street characters on the wall. I think that’s where he says no I’m not going to be there. 😢
way over priced
I agree but most restaurants are overpriced these days.
i was at the state house for the rally today. got a burger at cheers after. you should have seen the tour bus with all those brainless tourists thinking that the show was filmed here.@@DaltonDroneZone
Letting a "little tike" fly your drone isn't being an ambassador for the hobby. It's the kind of thing that makes the FAA put ever increasing scrutiny on us and makes it harder for all of us, especially those who make a living at it. Please, flyers out there... don't be "that guy."
How and where we can buy parts?
Guess I know what I'm doing this June.
If you haven’t been in a while, they did some clearing and grubbing in the old lake, around the wall and the damn is cleaned up. All the scrap metal is gone. Amazing what a couple of years and some dedicated folks can do! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the update.
Thanks for sharing! Pretty cool. On my list to take the lil mini whoop out to 👍👍🇺🇸
The room at 31:15 was used for models and the room next to it was used for photographers during photo events. It's truly a unique place to photograph. Thank you for the tour.
Thank you for the information.
I been there , Cheers was greatest show of my youth !
Muchly needed tutorial appreciate it, now if only i can find Phantom 4 pro v1.0 replacement parts!!!!
Beautiful video
Thank you
This is amazing info
Thanks. I hope it helped.
Can I send you my phantom 3 standard to repair? Nothing major wiring came apart when trying to fix it myself and failed
I’m sorry but my schedule doesn’t allow for me to offer repair services to the public.
at 45:21 How you are attaching those small parts near gimbal. What is the name of this part. Please let me know. I have minor shift in those area which needs to be fixed. Thanks a lot in advance
I would like to know the same thing because I crashed mine and the fall hit this part near the gimbal, the plastic finish on the sides, I put it back but does not look like the other side :(

When I was around 14 years old (1964) I walked the tunnel a few times with some friends. Two of those walks a train came through. The trains were commuter trains that ran often throughout the day. The walls of the tunnel were not smooth and had depressions in them and we would stand with our backs against the wall while the train came through. We were kids and didn't care about the danger. Walking the tunnel was a challenge of courage. Thanks for bringing back a memory I had completely forgotten.
You’re welcome. Thank you for sharing your memories.
you do know that stuff if fragile man you go at that stuff like your splitting wood
It’s not that fragile. Thanks for the comment.
What a disappointment.
I heard the steps were haunted!!!!
I did feel like I was pushed by some unseen force while on the steps, very unnerving.
The kiss of death always seems to be when some organization or corporation buys these places. So what did the "sisters of what ever" buy this place for, to store some statues in it, and then let it rot? Disgusting.
It was given to them by Mary Lloyd who was the last owner of the house and died without heirs.
@@zombiemom6701 Bad choice on her part, it should have been put in the hands of preservationists. Plenty of old house lovers out there. I appreciate your sharing that info.
Wow! Thanks for doing this! I went to school there in the 80's and it was awesome to be able to see some of the property again!
Glad you enjoyed it
WOW! That was a lot of work. Thank you so very much Mark! I do appreciate your amazing repair skills.
No problem Ken. Glad to help.
I replaced my vision sensor but it shows calibration error can you help me with that
Hi @luvpreetsingh1178, Did you found a solution ? I have a same problem ..
Very cool bud. You know ya stuff ❤❤❤
Thanks!

Oh I bet dang near every one who visits that place walks away angry lol
The sad combination of disrespectful vandal behavior and corporate greed ruining another interesting piece of history.
Thanks for showing this it's been very helpful a few times!
Glad it was helpful!
It looks like the motors are supported by both the top and bottom shell. Is that correct? So if the top or the bottom starts to crack, that's not the only thing holding it, the other shell is still holding it, correct?
Correct.
