Holy shit ! I thought I was cool flying my little drone a mile and half. Thought I was so cool taking her up to 1300 feet above launch point. But damn, you smashed those numbers !
Did the prop snap at the end, or is it designed to do that? It looks like thereās a hinge there, and obviously vulnerable during landings, so Iām hoping it was meant to do that.
Yes, designed that way. Itās a folding prop.
Allows me to power off at altitude also, without the drag of the prop.

Please this topic is not for anyone to judge OP based on some internet āevidenceā. Thanks.
I would get nice and toasted and rip some crazy little planeā¦do a bunch of loops and all thisā¦very cool!!!

A guerrilla growers dream. Need night vision. Very Kool man!
Thats wY cool now it gets me to thinking a im in florida kinda live in a swampy tropical like area a great nig bag of reg mexican brown seeds dropped in my area and they would prolly.be leftb alone mother nature would take her course
Thats awesome I was always to scared to try planes stuck with the cars. Been meaning to get them back out soon( though probably not till spring now) though I have been trying to find out more on a copter that a friend gave me a while back.
You have some mad skills! Do you have a preference for electric or fuel aircraft?
This should give some people a heart attack.
Back in the day it was all nitro fuel. Now a days, I prefer electric. Way more power. Though flying my bigger 2 stroke gas stuff ranks right up thereā¦hahaha
An entire LR flight.
That landing gave me a rush just watching it!
This is awesome! I thought you were scooping stuff outta the train car! Lol
Didnt watch the full 3 and a half hours, skipped around a bit but watched the last 30 minutes uninterrupted. Took me a bit to figure out your telemetry setup. Very cool video and toy. Did you say your homemade drone has a 8 foot wingspan ?! WTF ! I am guessing your are not in the US, the FAA has a 400 ft (above takeoff) elevation limit for most UAV. Not that I havent broke that many times. lol. We also are not legally supposed to fly beyond line of sight, which I find a bit of a joke, especially for me since my drone is not much larger than the size of the palm of my hand and it can fly about 2 miles away. Manufacturer has a limit of 1500 ft above launch point elevation. It wont go higher without being modded.
Asking if this is in the US because of the laws is a bit odd. Thatās like asking if anyone who grows in here is in the US, because of the lawā¦you know, the federal law everyone is breaking?
I fly all open source hardware. No limitations.
Looks great from up there. love the horse grounds crew lol
