|
|
I need some info on Drones.
Ah' ken aw aboot Bag Pipes, it's the flying ones I am on about .
I bet it is another money pit like gowf and motorbikes. So before I lash out in one direction I would like some input from a 'trusted' source.
(I also thought to ask the Geeks at bcf.)
I seen a clip from my local area that was quite impressive as far as altitude, range, stability and the resolution.

The beast used was a DJI Phantom 3 (WETFTI)
I found some sold here as example:
https://www.dronesdirect.co.uk/st/dji-phantom-3-standard-drones-and-parts
Any ideas?
Thanks,

What the hell happened to using catapults to wheech the gear over the wall into the exercise yard? ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I have a parrot bebop drone with sky controller that has been gathering dust pretty well since I had it. I flew it a couple of times but got bored with it very quickly.
Perhaps I should get it out and indulge in a bit of voyeurism with it. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

I had a P2 when they first came out with a go pro. It was good at the time but i held off upgrading as the tech is and still is moving too fast. Mine flew away but i managed to kill the motors as it would not respond, meant to be a common thing with the P2 series.
Ive now got a Inspire 2 / X5S Apple Pro Res setup, the software has improved vastly, i would not consider range to be a factor as your stuck to 500m VLOS and 400ft.
DJI have the monopoly, their stuff is good, their service is shocking and i mean shocking.
My advice would be to check out all the rules as it can be very limiting to where you can / should fly a lot of red tape.
30 meters away during take off
50 meters away during flight
150 meters away from congested area
Im across the minch from you in Ullapool
