Hopefully both operated from the same control station...

No , they were actually on their own RC. I had to set them on a table in front of me. Next time i think ill try a POI flight making one of them the POI.

Not sure that would fit within the AMA guide (or FARs/CARs). Though I guess that’s less of an issue if the location is remote.

That’s fun. Did it way back with a P2V and a Standard. I could keep one on the P2V but never could find the Standard .

Its fun. Its amazing how steady the M2P is over the P3A. Dirk have you ever tried POI from drone to drone before?

A neat viewpoint. Definitely not legal if flying commercially, CFR Part 107.

Very cool!

2 107 pilots - a scene study and location search for an upcoming feature - working title; 'The Search'. A P3 being followed by a M2P in Northern San Diego County, CA.
The prong-horn at the end didn't know what to think of a drone.

You could also just fly the Phantom like you normally would, and set the M2P to Active Track, fixed on the Phantom, to follow it around! Just maintain a safe altitude to clear any obstacles, after tracking the ascension. Good luck! Eager to see the results!
