Emergency - I Crashed the Drone!!! Plz Help Me Replace It!!! 😭
We’re looking for up five supporters interested in getting J425 flying again… via a one-time donation that unlocks additional access & original exclusive swag









UPDATE 7:03: We’ve got our first J425 AIR 5 Founder!!! Thanks so much to the LS Chamber and Exec Director Matt. We are so overdue to join. 🫡 .
LAKE STEVENS — 😔 I messed up and crashed my drone (a gift from my mom and aunts) while working on a story today 😔.
If you’ve been here since the beginning you know I’ve never asked for anything in the way of funding, I dont sell anything or take a salary …and I dont even like using the Paywall. I don’t want ppl to have to pay. At all.
But today I have to ask for help. That little drone is very important. So I’m hoping there’s several of you out there who’d like to get a little more involved. But if you can’t? No problem, no worries, nothing is ever required.
I’ve put together a one-time offer for up to FIVE J425 supporters who’d like to help — it’s detailed below the divider so check it out. In short, we’re looking for up to five $250 flat fee donations.
We have five $250 chairs to fill in the J425 AIR 5 Founders Club — these five founders will sponsor our drone + receive a limited edition commemorative 36” x 36” J425 aerial photography print, signed and numbered out of 5, + a 24 month subscription, + early access to swag. Most of all you’ll get us flying again.
If that’s something you’re interested in, hit the subscribe button below and choose the AIR FIVE option and/or text me at425.953.6762 for other options (Cash App etc)
Thanks to all J425 readers for your support and readership I love each of you regardless of your support level. Cheers. - Kev
