As a Christmas present to myself, I have finally upgraded my 2016 model DJI Phantom 4 drone. It has served me well over these years, and has travelled well too! But, it was now time to upgrade.... And a DJI AIR 3 it is!!
This new model has significant enhancements over the Phantom 4, camera is far superior, its also small and easier to transport and fly!!
First fly was at the 'Running Man' (Sprinter" from the Sydney Olympics in 2000. This, and two others, were atop of thr Centerpoint Tower and after removal, scattered throughout Sydney Olympic Park, Homebush. However, with the recent upgrade of the M4 (West Connex) tunnel, its now near the Homebush Bay Drive intersection, and has intrigued me since being placed there!! So I had, HAD to get a photo of it!!
Now comfortable with the flight controls, it was the following day or so, the 'Light Horse Interchange' where the M4 (joins the City to thr West) and the M7 (more of a 'Ring Road' from the M5, passing the M4 and joins the M2 to the north). In the very middle of the intersection of the M4 and M7, stands the Australian Light Horse Sculpture Parade is dedicated to the heroic troops who served in the Australian Light Horse, and their horses that could never return. It has a central mast and four sets of red poles, representing the Australian Light Horse on parade. The 55-metre-high mast with its reflective crown, located at the centre of the Light Horse Interchange, provides a focus to the sculpture. The lit mast and crown symbolise a torch in the dark.
NOW, feeling a lot more confident, I headed to the East, and discovered the 'Sydney Motorsport Park (formerly the 'Easter Creek Raceway') where the V8 Supercars race, as well as the speedway (long story involving that) and the drags are held all on the one location...
Time for some more frequent, daily adventures ahead....
Hoo roo for now...
