What's her name?

I was thinking FourPlay but that's something one does....as I recall.

I just call mine "my flying camera", I could shorten that to just FC.

Sky King from the 60's tv show. I was in love with Penny!

So I just got my P3S about 3 weeks ago, and I'm struggling with a very serious issue: I can't come up with a good name for my bird.

I'm hoping some of you will share what you've named yours in hopes that it will inspire me!

Are you going to post the name you pick?

I think that’s spelled differently. ;-)

I think the names I use while in conversation with other flyers are: #1 Dead, #2 Shaky, and #3 Current. But that's just me.

Ignore him. I named mine Sky King, after the TV show from my youth.

One of my P3's is also named "Sky King" for the TV show. The other is named for Skylar King's plane, "Song Bird".

Very appropriate, Brother Dave, very appropriate. And, yes, as much as I don't want to admit it, I understood that reference (sigh).

Interesting use of color. I kind of like it. You probably don't need strobes?

It's pretty visible with the color. I was trying for more a fluorescent yellow, but got more of a construction vehicle orangey-yellow. It stands out against the sky great, but can sometimes blend a bit with new yellow-green vegetation. The invasion stripes on the arms help provide some extra contrast to pick it out as well. It was a tricky paint project, at least for me, to get the stripes all even on the tapering arms.

What's not apparent from the photo is the really bright LED array on the front. That light is visible from quite a distance, so if I get a little disoriented, I can yaw around in place and see where it's at pretty easy.

I've been flying my P3 a lot FPV lately with my Fatsharks plugged in via HDMI, so the LOS visibility isn't so important.

Cheers,
Paul
