Overall Basic Instrument Operation Comments from Carl:
Hi Dan, Sorry again about the delay here over the holidays. This is really nicely done. While everything is a pass for me I would encourage you to explore two area that are on the limit for me, both related. First, blowstick lenght. You're leaning a little away from your blowstick, it looks too long. Second, the drone angle is a little too horizontal, also likely from the blowstick being on the long side. I'd try taking an inch or two off the blowstick and that should give you a more comfortable setup. Meanwhile, the steadiness and cadence here are excellent. Great job and start working toward your phase 4!
