    Can you explain?

    If you plan to use a drone, it's photos or videos for any comercial purpose, you need to have certification from the FAA. The test is $150 and your certification lasts for 2 years.

    I forget, are you putting in through Ely? If so, be sure to carve out an hour or so to stop out at the resort!

    I tried, bro is heading the trip up and has put in elsewhere twice and loves the familiar aspect.

    Will be my first time up there...cannot wait! I'll take the drone and test it out for you on our trip if you want? :evilgrin:

    Got my cheap go pro...old handcam (not risking the nice one), phones and one of those older but HD action flip cams...hope to capture some sweet shots.

    Very nice!! Makes me want one now.

    By the way, looks like the water level is high. Either that or the docks need to be raised up!

    Yeah, I need to get a trapping license so I can thin the beaver population. In the meantime, one of the neighbors cunducted negotiations with the beavers and the water level is at a reasonalbe level.... for now.
