Has FPV Hub died of natural causes?

Not really much in the way of traditional FPV flying on there, great for drones though.

It's a shame - I was watching Currykitten's latest video earlier and it made me want to get back in the air.

This site was getting tonnes of traffic. Around 1.2M requests in the last 7 days. It then went offline, because the log files were massive.

I have secured it with Cloudflare and upgraded to the latest version of SMF. Unfortunately that has lost the theme and a lot of the plugins and add-ons have disappeared.

It pains me to say it, but I'm not sure it's worth trying to find and install new versions of those plugins and add-ons at this point? As the title of this thread says, it's pretty much dead here now unfortunately.

There doesn't seem to be much in the way of fixed-wing discussion anywhere - most places seem to be mostly drone-related.

I've fixed a couple of issues this morning.

It wasn't allowing new sign-ups because we were missing a privacy policy, the image upload path was wrong which was breaking images and the Pretty URLs plug in was erroring.

I have also removed the Cloudflare 'Under attack' mode.

Let's see what happens now... nothing?!
