How many UAS can you spot in this pic?

I think I have an addiction.

I am probably several shy of enough. Hahaha.

I have my eye on a Turbo Ace Matrix next if I can sell off some of the herd first.

No one cares to attempt a guess? Most I have shown it to couldn’t find them all right away.

Good eyes. I just thought about how easy it probably is on a bigger screen than my phone. Lol

Heck yeah it is!! It is super scary to fly. 2014 tech was nowhere near as easy as our Mavics!!!

Addition? What addiction? You fly one, you land, you fly another one. No Problem!!!!

The only problem with that theory is I am working on operating more than one at a time. The S900 will be an aircraft carrier and I am devising a way to launch another drone from that midflight.

Bit I hear inhaling Lucas Magic Smoke is fun. I remember driving MG’s that had a lot of that in the little smoke tubes that were always leaking. Lol

Hmm, have one near 100% built, just needs binding and some final tuning I think.
The S900 is now long obsolete, but this one will hopefully be useful down the track for something !

It sure is old tech but man does it fly nice in big wind. I have had it up in 19mph steady winds with 43mph gusts and she dances around a bit but she holds her own. Any of my other drones would be blown away. That is the biggest reason I got this one, fighting wind around waterfalls. Then I found out what it was going to cost me to mount a compatible camera so now it has been designated as a tow drone for rescuing my others and I am going to set it up with a cargo drop so I can remote launch another drone from the air just for the fun of seeing if i can.

Have you ever set one of the drones to active track the (flybarred!) Blade and flew it? Is that a B400? I'm thinking of trying that with my Namo S2 indoors. If that works, maybe I'll try it with my Trex 470 outside.

Hmmm, might make a fine heavy duty fishing drone

Think a Gannett type drop could be easily rigged up, this has a big Futaba controller with loads of switches spare.
