“It was an inflatable object. It is considered more like a balloon,” explained Captain Gary Bartell Jr. from Crystal River, describing how the inflatable paddle board performed in the gusts, acting like a sail that carried them adrift out to sea, across Waccasassa Bay, towards the vicinity of Mangrove Point.The longest night: extreme cold and a failed searchConditions worsened dramatically with the arrival of night.
Without appropriate clothing or safety equipment, the teenagers faced temperatures that dropped to 4°C (40°F), exposed to the wind and cold for hours.

is my least favorite part of using any gimbal, and the setup process here is still a bit quirky. The app provides helpful videos on how to get things up and running, but the gimbal has to be connected to the app in order to view them. That wouldn’t be an issue if the gimbal didn’t have to be turned off while you’re balancing it. Annoying but certainly not a deal breaker.
