You did, but the thread really has no other purpose but to tease us anyway!

We in Chicago are jealous. Spring started here yesterday ā we had a small blizzard here just a few days ago and yesterday it finally got above 50 (F). So now itās 85. We jumped from February to July!
I got a drone. I went down to the park to try it out.
It doesnāt like to stand in grass because the camera hangs down, and I hadnāt brought my take-off pad. I found a good sized stump, a meter high, to put it on. But then I did something wrong with the settings (guys donāt read instructions), so it didnāt obey commands from the remote control. I found a button on the iPhone screen labeled Take Off with an up arrow, so I pushed that, and it went straight up six meters, and stood there, whirring, still not obeying any commands. I saw the Take Off up-arrow button had changed to Land with a down-arrow, so I pushed that and it started going down. This thing has vision in all directions so it can avoid accidents, and looking down it didnāt like the stump, so it stopped and said Not suitable for landing, and stood there, three meters up, whirring sulkily.
I clambered up on the stump and stood on tiptoe and managed to reach it. It has four sharp propellers on top, so I picked it gingerly around the belly, the same way you pick up a live lobster to avoid being nipped. But when I pulled downward it got REALLY ANGRY, whirred loudly and used all its strength to resist going down. Iām bigger so I overpowered it, but then I was standing on a stump with a very loudly whirring drone that I couldnāt put down because it would fly up again.
I managed to take the battery out.
Then I went home and read the instructions.

It smells like MQA to me!
The anticipation is more fun than the gift
I canāt see a major U.I. Redesign until the end of this year or more likely next year. Most definitely MQA in this release.
Sorry to keep everyone waitingā¦ Roon 1.5 is now live!
