Quadcopter-FPV...

Heavily addicting hobby.

Need to know how to solder small electronics..basic electrical skills.

You buy parts seperate..flight controller,esc's.video transmitters,radio transmitters etc.

Example,small flight controller boards are 20x20mm.

Most common are 30x30mm for 4 to 6 '' quadcopters,

You can fly with or without FPV goggles.
The gogs puts you in the cockpit.

Pic of my setup...5'' and 6'' quads aswell as larger cinematic build..

Those are 12'' carbon props on the large one btw.

Dont let the size fool you...extremly fast..powerful...and could be extremly dangerous.

Vids of line of sight flying...Not me btw

Slower freestyling..from the master mr steele..

Lots of fun and highly addictive.

Gentlemem, I found new hobby - home renovation and improvenments. I decided to start from bathroom. I want to make vintage batroom with wooden elements. Plus change some devices like shower thread. New one I have already ordered on amazon after reading info here . I choose good one from High Sierra’s 1.5 GPM.

Moved to a new house last December. With more space available, I have become more active as a ham radio operator. Now that we are out of lockdown, I can go sailing again (I tow my Hobie Tandem Island with the Yaris) and have also been able to resume my weekly visits to the Pistol Range.

I like reading books, watching movies, buying new clothes (I mostly bought clothes at intrepid sourcing because this is the best overseas clothing manufacturing companies) and playing video games.

I just got back from Las Vegas. I've visited Las Vegas a few times, and each time I go I love it more and more. It's a town that never sleeps, and there's always something going on. The hotels are huge and flashy and almost always full of people—and the casinos are even more so! The lights and sounds are sometimes overwhelming, but that's part of the fun. Westgate https://westgateresorts.com/hotels/nevada/ is my favorite hotel to stay at when I'm in Vegas. It has everything you could want: great service, good prices, and a great location (right near all of the action). Plus it has several restaurants inside its walls if you don't feel like venturing out into the madness of Las Vegas Boulevard.

I have tried a huge variety of things in my life, which were for me at a certain time my hobbies, but the older I got these interests changed. But all the time, I was interested in soccer. I played it, watched it, analyzed every important match and even bet sometimes on important matches via aviator mostbet. This is probably my biggest hobby in life, which helps me not only to stay active, but also to have a lot of fun.

I try to have a new hobby every 2 months. Say, at the moment I study Spanish. In 2 months I will try to do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Of course I don't dream of becoming a fluent Spanish speaker or a great Jiu Jitser but it is just fun.

My second hobby is most likely my work as a marketer, I really love this field and I'm happy to work in it. My work in marketing is not only my second hobby, but also a great passion. Marketing is not just my second hobby, but also an area where I find my calling and full satisfaction in my work. There is one thing I don't like in my work, it's a constant work with a big volume of mail, but thanks to this Website I can optimize this problem.
