Link Roundup 9-9-16

Garth Scaysbrook Other

This week I came across some great links. In this post I cover apps for digital nomads (I love the sound of that), chrome extensions for productivity, OpenVid for recording quick vids in Chrome and ColorHunt.


Apps and Websites for Digital Nomads

I so love the idea of being a Digital Nomad. Although I am not one yet, I will keep trying. This post on lifehack has some great apps. I personally use Shopify, Rescuetime, Every Time Zone, EX Currency and Xero. Let me know what you use.


Chrome Extensions for Productivity

I use Momentum Dash, Todoist for Gmail, Buffer, Toggl, Rescuetime.


OpenVid

Ok, this is a cool tool. You can quickly explain something to someone using a video. The video is uploaded and a share URL is available. It is the quickest solution I have ever seen. Worth checking out.


The Pinterest of Color Pallets

color-hunt

This little website shows beautiful colors. Each color pallet is voted on by the users. If you are looking for great color ideas check it out. I am crap at choosing color schemes, that is why I use websites like this 🙂


This wraps up this week’s links. Hope you enjoyed them.

My First Drone Flight and Yes it Was Awesome

Went Drone flying with family today. I was so excited to say the least. The sky was clear and the weather was good. I’ve know about drone for years but never had the opportunity to get up close and personal with one until now.

The Propellers snap onto the Motors. Each propeller is colour coded so that you matchup the correct propeller to the correct motor.

From the moment I was handed the controller I felt excitement and a little nervous. Began with basic movements of forward and back. Then learned how to turn left and right while moving forward doing wide oval shaped loops in the sky.
 
The Phantom 4 Pro was so stable. As soon as you let go of the controls is stops in mid air. Just waiting for you. I took it pretty easy, going slow. Didn’t want to crash it my first time. LOL.

Near miss. LOL

We went as high as 100 meters in the air, it was difficult to see at that height. The view from the 4K onboard camera was amazing as we did a 360 rotation. The furtherest it was away was about 250 m. It was like a little spec at that distance. The live video feed from the 4K camera made you feel comfortable even though it was a long way away.

Easy to change the battery

Each battery lasted about 30 minutes. We had 2 batteries, so that was an hour of flying time.
 
Really enjoyed my first Drone flight. Hope I get to get to do it again sometime.
