I would be scared of average Joe flying one of those!
Also, I appreciate the "drones' in quotes. UAV, UAS, RPA, RC aircraft, quad/multi-copter are all preferable to drone. The military is autonomously landing on aircraft carriers and they don't even use the term. Consider me peeved. |
I had a TRex 450 and much prefer the DJI 550 for cinematography. This is what's left of my air fleet.
That combat wing will do over 100mph in a dive.
