Has anyone had anything funny happen to them while flying (photo taking)

[Porky]

While flying this morning I managed to capture this moody photo, this was the 1st photo I’ve put through post, more to follow...... big yawn

While flying, minding my own business, thoroughly enjoying myself a dog come along and pissed all over my landing pad, I couldn’t believe it The dog owner come over and apologised and offered to clean it, which I declined. I stayed calm, thinking about all the bad press we’ve had about our hobby over the last few weeks, so I just made a joke of it, oh I was fuming...

It could only happen to me..... washed the pad in the river so hopefully it’s not going to smell.

Has anyone else had anything funny happen to them while flying?

Mods, I started this thread in photos because I’ll be adding more pics. But if you need to move, please do

Just licks and dirty paws.

It got colder as time went on, got home, warmed up with a nice cup of coffee, always does the trick

I’m just editing more photos now, so might put a couple more on here.

A scratch or two on the back i got lucky.

The funny part is the lady just ran off. No apology no nothing. I felt like a nerd in the park

Who will let the dogs out?

Next time, you could put some treats around your landing pad, but not too close ...

I would say they do not do their business where they eat ... lol ...

You made good shots, and responded very well to this unpleasant thing. What do you do with all the pictures, do you bring some on paper?

Must get myself some of these then also must update my fly checklist, Dog treats

At the mo all my photos are backed up on the PC but when..... I do get some nice photos, I’ll start printing them out.

It wasn’t funny at the time, but I had a Hawk take down my Yuneeq Q500K from approximately 125’ feet up. Bird won.
Several years and few DJI birds later, I finally repaired that drone and it flies again!
