Hi all,
I know the prop cage has been discussed before in the past (did a fair bit of searches) but would like to ask for some feedback/opinion whether would it be wise to use under light wind?
I would be on a boat with island hopping in Indonesia for a week, and plan to hand launch and hand catch while I'm on the move (my partner would be catching it while i pilot the Mavic). I'm expecting minimal to no wind (calm sea) as its sort of like a cove, surrounded by multiple islands.
My concern would be flying at a higher altitude (say 70 to 100m), there would be light wind I presume? is it safe to fly with the cage on? and with sport mode if it can't find the fight under normal load? Other than the reduced flight time.
Background:
So far, we have practice a few hand catching session but its a bit daunting for my partner, let alone when the boat is rocking/moving? We had one close call where it nearly slip out and took off, thus; the idea for having the cage.
