About Me:
Love flying, real or RC. PPL and Ultralight Pilot since 1990. I am the technical director of Advanced Lab Automation P/L. Hard and software Engineer and no challenge is too big for me.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Build a real two seater Dragonfly MK2 from drawings only, had taken me over 12 years of after hours to build it, test flown it and passed all CASA inspections. Ordered a few days ago my UAV-3000 Reaper. Can't wait to get started. Would like to use it as a Bush Fire Spotter plane.
Hometown:
Essen, West Germany, Citizen of Australia since 1986 and love it here.

"Happy new year and many crashless flying hours, Ronny!
Had CASA Boss out again and one ended up to have a fleet of aircraft, doing any kind of job (below 400 feet, in line of site and outside controlled airspace) to justify paperwork and operation…"

"Hi Ronny,

"Thank you Christopher, for the video clip of the UAV-3000 flying. Noticed gray aircraft with gray sky made it 80% of the time invisible to me. "should I paint mine pink or orange?" lol no no just joking. Light and well balance aircraft fly best.…"
"My UAV-3000 arrived Monday morning the 22nd of July. Wow, love my new toy. Instruction manual and all parts present. All parts fit well together to. However, at room temperature (21 deg C) the wing skin pops up with a few bubbles or air pockets.…"
"Thank you for the great photos with rulers, mine is still in the everlasting posting system. Hope to start playing with it sometime next week. Will aim for the HobbyKing recommended …"
"The price above varies a lot with the US$ going up or down. Most Important is, to make sure at point of ordering to have AU$ selected, because it always goes back to US$ after fresh login.
Since one gets logged out after a certain time not using it.…"

"Ordered one and was lucky to get the second last one in stock, can't wait for it to turn up. The oversize package was a bit of a price killer. But no pain, no gain. The spinner should be included, going by the pictures from HobbyKing. If the wing…"
