Yeah, I gather there’s a bit to learn about how to use them, PB. I’ve been wanting to get one for ages now. My girlfriend has one and I quickly learned that she don’t wanna chat when it’s up in the air.
Have to agree, the drone footage very pro!!
Dont be scared to try one. Push the auto take off button and it hovers 1m or so directly in front of you. GPS keeps it on the spot. Push a joystick away from you and it simply flys away from you. The second you release the stick it just stops and hovers. Pull the stick towards you and it returns.
Hehehe. Yeah, I think I could probably manage that, PB. I’m sure things get much more complicated after the first step though. When I was looking into them, I watched a few YouTube videos of people who’d programmed the home function wrong. They hit home and away into the wild blue yonder went the drone ;-)
Lol. Yeah, I agree. But there seems to be plenty of them on YouTube :-)
Really enjoyed that PB. Thanks for posting. Did notice those same campers who caused shit to go down in another episode, made it this far as well.
The battery on mine allows it to fly around 12-14 min at a time. Top speed is nearly 60 kph but wont fly for 12 min on max power obviously. The "Follow me" function on the drone allows you focus on riding or walking and the drone will follow you automatically at a height you select, easy tech
sounds straight forward to me Paul!
Part 4
I have a DJI Spark and that has the follow me function. They are very clever and have collision avoidance and return to home functions. I have had mine 3klm away from me and return by its self
