Flight in Tight Spaces

Looks like you didn't make it through the last on. Either you rich or have some ( ( Mod Removed)

 

[Made2Phly]

Prop guards, gimbal protector, and now a set of beat up props. Oh, and my judgment has improved. I realized I am not rich and have quit the small spaces. It was good practice though.

What were you flying, a Mini?

 

[Made2Phly]

Mavic 2 Pro.

You have more courage than me. I don't even know if I'd try doing that with my Mini. You have bumper guards, you say?

 

[Made2Phly]

Yes prop guards. And a gimbal protector. I did cheat though: i flew pretty slowly, in tripod mode. Most of the clips were speeded up

Regardless, I thought it was cool. Good job!

Nice. Use the 6 by grid to help you. I like to go in narrow areas too. But with the phantom. It has a mode to help.

I thought it was pretty cool video even with the mishaps.

Watching this gave me such angst I had to shut it down. The flight of the bumble bee music made it even worse- sort of like the shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" . Why anyone would risk this expensive device repeatedly boggles my mind.

Explain the 6 by grid? Some controller setting no doubt. I launch with no GPS, fly through a "tunnel" of foliage / trees to get out into the open sometimes. Need all the help I can get

Big adenaline and good practice. I was probably pretty lucky to emerged relatively unscathed. The only casualty is I now have a box marked “beater props.“.

The prop guards and gimbal protector make it less risky than it looks. On the other hand, I no longer have the urge to do it.

I see it was the mp2. I thought it was maybe a mini. But I applaud you. That's what flying drones is all about. Fun and challenge.

 

[passedpawn]

I liked it. Flight of the Bumblebees was icing. Nice.

 

[Geekser]

Impressive that you were able to get thru some of those "Tight Places" - I thought there were going to be many more crashes than there were -

Try buying a cup of coffee without it

Now that IS brass cojones! Prop guards ain’t do nuthin against branches

Ya got me. So I'll resort to my alternative:
You can't take it with you.
