@mogandave Building them isn't really economical any more, as store bought, RTF (ready to fly) are cheaper and better than what you can DIY for. When I started it cost less to build. Now you can get a whole drone for what 1 battery would cost for a decent DIY build. Don't even think I could remember how to build one from scratch again. I'd have to check the DIY, open source sites, if even maintained, to teach myself again. Use to program the controllers, and even reconfigured a GPS module. Plug & play camera gimbals were a challenge. Software helped calibrate the motors & PIDs. You can go inexpensive for RTF units, or go DJI products for quite a bit more. Captain Drone on YT should feature the latest. From toys to DJI products. Do consider, Thailand is hot & windy, and not drone happy environment. This will show the difference of operating with all the bells & whistles, or on the cheap, 1 or 2 axis gimbal. I put a ungimbaled camera atop my Mi drone ...

Take the conversation over to ... here Unless you live rural, the regulations really limit what you can do with them, especially if near tourist or expats. As they will report you. Thais don't seem to care.

@Yellowtail I had a few ... get bored and modify them, or chop shop if crashed. If still works, then nothing a little super glue & zip ties can't fix Landing on or taking off from water, no prob ... and of course, a few batteries to keep 'em flying

Probably bore most people. Like building them a bit more than operating them. Nice hobby destroyed by over regulation. My first DIY build, back in 2012 maybe ...

Without solar panels ... only leaves a couple options, and none really practical or economical. The battery is the most expensive part of any system. You'll need an inverter anyway, so wee bit more, it would pay to add the panels. Any back up battery you'll need for an hour or more is going to be pricey. Options would be a full solar system, small 3 or 5kW inverter w/5kWh back up, if conservative. Then they have the solar generators, but they aren't cheap, and already mentions, the ECOFLOW type. edit; not mentioned this thread by ... here Then the ol' gas generators, not a fan of myself. All depends how much you want to spend, how much you'll really need, or if you want to be bothered with being a bit of hands on & maintenance/gas generator. Agree with the advice, just go all in, 3kW or 5kW solar system, with thought of expanding in future.

Kinda gay ... more like flaming gay or bi. Nothing wrong with that, having a little spice & variety in their life, if wanting. Just don't try to tell me you're straight because it has implants & wears a dress -
Yea, the menu pricing turned me off. Didn't see the value, worth trying. When I'm thinking fast food chicken, it's Wing Zaps on my mind. If not street vendor / Hat Yai garlic chicken. Don't bother with 5 Stars much any more either, as getting pricey & smaller.

They were shooting for 70 restaurants, in the promo when opening. Wonder if the opened that many. Some were located at PTT Parks.

They didn't last long, not even 9 years. Never bothered sampling. Supposed to be one of the best (Church's Chicken) in the USA. Oh well ... NEXT

Rehydrate ... the obvious, place in water, though may dilute the flavor. I'd try steaming a piece or 2 before dipping in water. If enjoy jerky that much, then well worth getting a dehydrator and making your own. A very easy process. Plenty of recipes on YT to get you started. Thanks for the thread .... "honey, break out the dehydrator... it's Jerky time"

If people read the OP, then they would know the 'incident' happened in the early daylight hours of the morning 0630 ish hrs. Although, was restaurant really open that early ??? The drunks were fighting at 7Am ish. Bars are irrelevant to the discussion at that hour. Looking at the photo, he looks pretty hot, from the wee bit you can see ... -
The rest of the world is irrelevant to the USA. Completely different culture, and issues. UK for example, has 147+k firearm certificates on issue as at 31 March 2023 AU has <900k firearm licenses issued Texas, USA, alone, has issued more than 1 million hunting permit, etc, My home state of PA issues more 500k hunting licenses a year. There are 50 states in the USA. Do the math.

Not sure you can blame the 'guns', same as you can't blame vehicles for the 'MVA deaths'. Blame the .... ... breakdown of the family ... drugs ... turf wars ... open borders, for the drugs mainly, and the drug cartel members running the streets You could even bring all those military personal overseas home, that are playing corporate security, to patrol the border and give ICE a hand. Along with all the foreign aid that could be spent on citizens of the USA, instead of giving to countries that hate the USA. Give the parents some assistance, and the kids some better options in life. Simple solutions to simple problem that the elected are suppose to provide for their constituents, instead of lining their pockets with kickbacks and inside trading. Just a thought, but hey, the ignorant sheeple keep reelected the same corrupt folks that have the best commercial. Som nam naa Products don't usually kill people, people kill people. Taking guns away from legal owners, won't stop much of the deaths. Enforcing current laws would help, just a wee bit. Close the last few loopholes in a few states. But most is up to people, raising their children properly and teaching them the value of life and how to be responsible citizens.

First post in thread was relative to topic. The rest were replies to silly replies to me, such as. -
I would think they're givens, and no need to mention. Life essentials, like drinking water

I can't even comment on such a silly 'what if' scenario. Who even thinks of this sh!t What if, that big A$$ rock headed toward earth in 2036, is guaranteed to hit earth, should we let all the criminals in jail out a few hours before ? -
