I love checklists.  I have tried to be more like my wife in being able to mentally keep a running tally of what needs done, but I continue to fail miserably.  Thankfully, there are other people who also appreciate lists, and the folks at Story and Heart were kind enough to share one of theirs with us.  It not only serves as a checklist, but it offers tips to explain some of the method for the madness.

I would also like to take the liberty to add a few of my own:

  • Neighbors – Be certain the guy next door isn’t going to shoot your drone out of the sky to beat it in midair.
  • Life-and-death – Make sure your drone isn’t going to interfere with emergency operations.
  • Control – And, for the love of all things injury-free, be certain you know how to control the dang thing.

So, what tips might you add to the checklist?
