    You know I gave my life to christ in 2015 and I have really been struggling the last few days. I found your channel and subbed and listened to the scriptures.

      Wow! God is good!!! Thank you for sharing that. It is awsome to hear personal testimony like yours. You nailed the purpose behind this channel. And that is to reach folks with the message of Christ, who may not be hearing it any other way. I have received occasional messages like yours where folks heard a message on the channel and it blessed them. So, thank you for the encouragement and thankful the message helped you.
      Had a few folks request more teaching from the Bible so I started another channel just for that, Diggin' the Word.

    I have to admit you had my nerves torn up a little bit when flying your mini 2 through there but you did really good. When flying in these areas obstacle avoidance is really helpful. But unfortunately the mini 2 doesn’t have sensors for obstacle avoidance. But the mini 3 pro does. But in your case with flying the mini 2 FPV could really be helpful. And you can get a tablet called the tripltech 9pro from amazon that has an HDMI port and you can use it with any FPV goggles that also has the HDMI port. This tablet works when downloading the DJI fly app and hooking the FPV goggles into the tablet. Which allows you to view your drone’s camera through the goggles. It’s easier to see when flying through tight spaces. Also using grid lines helps you to position the drone at the center of the camera. I usually don’t fly my mini 2 in tight spaces but the mini 3 pro does well with the obstacle avoidance you can set it to bypass and press forward on the control stick and it will go around, or over, under any obstacles. It works really good.

    • @tristardiggin
      @tristardiggin  Před rokem +1

      We are a Christian family and have been looking for years for a place to live that’s beautiful. I don’t like the ocean, beaches or Rocky Mountains
      I like where you are. I’d like to be around fellow believers
      I’m looking for a house on a half acre or so. We’ll do well when selling our property so it’d be doable if there something available
      God bless your family and your ministry

      It does ok on brush and stem like weeds. Grass and vines it doesn’t do so well…
