Hi all, This one is a day trip I did to Islay on the final day For those interested, I used a Garmin Virb Ultra 30 camera, either on the side of my crash helmet or attached to the wing mirror stalk. I also used a DJI Mavic Air for the drone shots and a LUMIX compact camera for some of bike bits. Cheers, Paul
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape

Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #3 If Ron Swanson ever left his woodshop, which Tammy would he take on his visit to Scotland? My money is on Tammy I, so he can feel bad about it for the whole trip. BTW - Ron Swanson is my favorite TV character in recent years.....

Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #4Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #3  You're probably right. With Tammy II they would get much sight-seeing done. And Tammy III has kids to consider...You've probably seen it but he does actually get to visit the Lagavulin distillery. And becomes a part owner!!! Also one of my favourite TV characters. Possibly the only reason I've watched all 5(?) series of P&R. Cheers Paul B. |

Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #5Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #4Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #3 Tammy III is a pretend Tammy. "Diane Elizabeth Tammy Lewis" or "Diane Tammy Elizabeth Lewis" isn't a name unless your living in Scotland. However, giving Ron a spouse that's more manly than he, was a courageous move. In Tammy I, Ron married his mother. Perhaps, with Diane, he found and married his father. Sadly, I missed a number of the later season episodes due to network schedule changes. However, in real life, you can attend a Nick Offerman woodworking class in his LA woodshop.

Sounds like it's time for Netflix! You can catch up with all of the seasons you missed |

Agreed, those are really neat - so much better than the usual bike travelogs on YouTube which are just single headcam footage. Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #9Heh. There's a little mantra which I've tried to teach my kids all their lives: "it's not free, it's included in what you're paying" "Whatever, Dad..." KC100->CB100N->CB250RS--------->DL650AL2 + R1200RS |

Zitat von Freddyfruitbat im Beitrag #10 My DJI Mavic Air has an active track mode where it will autonomously follow a object. That works up to about 30 mph. Don’t tell anyone, but I simply doubled the speed in the playback to make it look faster. I also shot the sequence in 4K, which allowed me to zoom in during editing since the film is exported at 1080p. The tough bit was finding a long straight deserted road with an empty field next to it that I could safely fly the drone over. Over the 5 days I was travelling with Alan I only used the drone about 4 times for about 10 minutes at a time, so it didn’t disrupt our travel too much. Cheers, Paul
