Ready for water and inflight failure

[dirkclod]

I'll land it in my kids little toy pool if we could post videos in here

Go ahead if you like and let me say to the members in this.
All I see is you guys hammering this member on his mod.
It stops here. If you don’t have anything constructive to add then don’t post.

You can't upload them, but you can post a link to one hosted somewhere like Youtube etc.

Got the pontoons and parachute for some over water action!

Is the parachute FAA approved?
Not that I want a parachute but it’s the only way to get An over people waiver.

I'm always amused to see this sort of thing.
Do you strap a cushion under the drone to fly over hard ground?
If the drone goes down over any surface, it's toast.
But it doesn't fall when flying over dry land, so why the great fear that it's going to fail over water?

Would a couch cushion work, or can you use “MyPillow”?

I can't believe you actually did that!!! I mean, I might have taken off, but there's no, I mean NO I mean NO I mean NO chance that I would've attempted a landing. (Ok that was un-necessary but you get the point.) Congrats

Looks like it works, at least on flat calm water. Too bad the manufacturer did not shave the front of the floats to make them more aerodynamic.

What parachute system is it? Could you post a link?
Thnx

Just a quick question . Does the map on the controller always show the top as North ?

I'd have to email the manufacturer to see it it's FAA approved. It's made in China, so probably not.

Yes. I haven't really played with it that much, but it is fixed North.

It's a good idea to ask an unrelated question in a new thread
But if you make the map full-screen, the icon in lower right will toggle between North up and Track up.
