After being given the wife’s blessing , ive ordered the Flagship drone from DJI .

The Mavic 4 pro.

As i now have my A2COFC certificate and can also fly under article 16 , this reduces the restrictions on where i can fly , so residential , industrial and recreational areas are available under certain conditions.

This will be my 6th drone so i need to stop ordering for a while as there wont be enough hours in the day

to fly them lol.

DJI Mavic 4 Pro Drone 512GB Creator Combo with RC Pro 2 – DJI Hasselblad

Ive changed my provider to Zen internet.

Although BT have been great , i can get much faster speeds with Zen and the router provided is future proofed for the next 3 years at least.

Heres a screenshot of my speeds…

Just had my property surveyed for solar panels. hopefully i should get a call regarding install within the next 6 weeks. That’ll help with fuel costs 🙂

A true fully fledged FPV drone on the DJI o4 system allowing me to use my own headset and controller.

Happy to say my car passed it’s mot with no advisories again today !.

also , had a service and air conditioning regass and now it’s as cold as ice again.

Im upgrading my drone controller to cover any later drones and also to get the extra features for the drones i have.

This one comes with a 7 inch rotational display , so much better clarity , a scrollwheel to make accessing the menu easier. much stronger powered antennas for further range as well as doubling up as a fully working android tablet.

should be with me tomorrow 🙂

Due to upgrading the computer , i decided to upgrade the whole setup entirely.

So i got a sit/stand desk and new chair with lumbar support to help with my back .

Its been a few years since i upgraded the computer. Things have moved on in the video editing world and ive now got home assistant to run every smart device in the house .

not only that , im doing a lot more with Ai as well , image manipulation , coding etc.

So although its not the very latest tech , its a far cry from the build i did a few years back.

AMD Ryzen 7700 cpu , Msi B650 Motherboard 1GB NVME , 32GB Corsair DDR 5 Ram. 850W PSU. 3 TB HDD.

Fans have been upgraded mainly due to age and im reusing my 360 radiator watercooling setup , im also using my old trusty case as its so easy to work with.

Much much quicker now..

My washing machine met its demise on friday night , a quick search online and i got one ordered for delivery the very next morning.

I decided on this one , bigger drum 10 kg , virtually silent as its got a direct motor and of course its internet ready so i can control it via my phone or home assistant.

Got some more sketchers as my old pair although going strong are a bit on the rough side.

Although these sketchers were a lot more expensive ( over £100 ) , they are 100% waterproof so should last me ages.

…also got some more socks for good measure 😀

Pleased to say my results from my diabetic eye screening have come back.

No issues , so i dont need to be checked now for 2 years rather than 1 .
