There was a video posted months ago of people standing in a field racing drones while wearing VR-style headsets. There were going in and out of a derelict building and zooming through trees and stuff. Really impressive. I've searched for it but can't find it, can anyone hook me up please?
I'm trying to show a friend what these things can do.
Is there not an option to buy a Phantom 3 without a camera?
These??
Churpu, search for him on youtube, his is a really good fast, aero close proximity flyer
I'm not sure I agree about the comments re DJIs chosen flight paths. Of anyone, I'm sure they comply, where local regulations require it. I'm shooting a friends wedding next year and have chosen to take both the P3 and Inspire. The lenghts I've had to go through to ensure I cover all aspects of safety pertaining to Euro USC and CAA is really, a joke. Having said that, it can only help to ensure the right regulations are in place. However, I would hate to see the hobbyist get limited due to regulations that are not proportionate to the type of craft...
About to be. Just had my Ops manual reviewed with a fair few commentsB-NUCs passed theory but practical coming up in July.
The OPs manual will be interesting as the power output of the Inspire is higher than the allowed limit in the CAA guidelines. This is why I think there needs to be an overhaul of the process. Up until about a month ago too, you would have been limited to aircraft model, rather than type (say up to 5kg) but that has changed now, so you can fly an Inspire or P2/P3 under the same licence.
Given the information that has to be put to the CAA and the requirement of the build, I can't see many home builds being signed off even if the requirement has changed to "type" rather than "model"
