We have a major solar storm coming, and as you all may know, when the sun is storming, GPS, and other aspects of our hobby turn to sh!t - Just reminding everyone that if you start having failsafes, no GPS locks, etc, this is why!

I stay aware of them, and every time I wonder if I’ll have any rf issues- nothing yet. I don’t use gps.
Dangerous operations.

Disclaimer: I don’t know wtf I’m talking about.
I wish I could get the smell of burnt electronics out of my nose.
