The Yuneec Pilots Picture Game

[Guardian44]

I guess I didn't consider our members from other countries. How about any black truck? Would that make it more fair?

Ok its been a while since I got one of these but I looked and sure enough - I gots my Black Truck on! (as the kids say) Will this do @Guardian44 ?

Yup, looks like a black truck to me! It's all yours!

Okay, here is one that anyone can have no matter where you live: The Challenge is - a Picture showing both the sun and moon. This is from my backyard looking west, the lights on the horizon left is Orlando, FL.

Hopefully tomorrow. All things being equal with no adverse events, should be at the beach for some sunset videos. Hopefully the sunset (6:23pm) and the moonrise (5:16) will co-operate. Great challenge!

That’s going to take one heck of a fisheye lens or a 180 degree panorama.

If the timing is wrong let me know and I will change the challenge. I was going through some photos and noticed this in several so I thought it might be fairly common.

Well the moon here in New York is to my south so I don’t think I could get a photo like that

 

[DoomMeister]

We are about 3 days from the full moon, so it will be about 10 days before the Sun and Moon are within 90 degrees of each other. a Pano will still work however.

Okay, New challenge: Give me an extreme close up of an object. Doesn't matter what it is but you gotta be within a couple feet of it.

 

[Chefinthesky]

This was as close is the drone would get with the landing gear up. Also serves as a reminder to wash the ride while the batteries charge...

 

[Ty Pilot]

Haven't I seen you land and take off from that car? we're looking for inches out to a couple feet, just swipe a frame from one of the videos just at lift off.

 

[Chefinthesky]

Thanks to this photo and Google, I just learned how to swipe a snapshot from a video frame inches from the roof of my car. Learning is fundamental...

 

[AH-1G]

This is how close in inches I didn't realize I was that close.

I think @Steve Carr won this one hands down.

 

[Chefinthesky]

Yeah... I would dare say his was the closest by far (how did he escape unscathed?).

 

[DoomMeister]

Yeah... I would dare say his was the closest by far (how did he escape unscathed?).

Four RealSense modules

Well I have to agree @Steve Carr has a very close one indeed. Steve, welcome to the game and the challenge is yours.

@Steve Carr
