      @@MarkTayloroutdoors I gave it some thought and I set up one spot as my "staging area" where I spend most of my time. I do all my cooking and eating there, and also store my food hung up in the trees there at night. Then 40 or 50 meters away I pitched my tent and used that area purely for sleeping. My sleeping area is away down a dead-end track and I've made a bit of a barrier out of spikey branches. So I can at least hear them coming even if it doesn't actually slow them down at all. I also sleep with my tent door open and it's facing an easily climbable tree. I feel like I've taken all reasonable precautions, I reconcile it in my mind by thinking that wild boar do not naturally hunt humans. People camp all the time in north America where there are large predators that will actively hunt humans. I have been visited by a wild boar one night, but I shoed it away and since it didn't get rewarded with anything edible I doubt it will be back. (I hope)

      +Wye Explorer Hey Mark, thanks for watching dude. It's radio controlled, runs on batteries and has a small propeller at the back. I built it myself from Depron Foam, it's stuff that's used as insulation under laminate flooring (a bit like the foam cheap camping roll mats are made from) It has small servos that are used to move the flaps so you can steer it. It's really good fun to fly, and it was very cheap to build, so I don't get too upset when I inevitably crash it - I just build a new one. Building them is half the fun for me. I'm going to be adding a lot more content to this channel over the coming weeks and months - Mostly outdoorsy stuff, hiking; backpacking; wild camping; bushcraft and mountain biking, maybe some kit reviews. I'm also a musician so I'll be adding some live music recordings. So please do add me to your subs ;-) atb from sunny Derbyshire Tim o/
