In acres half wooded, my real estate property abuts another lot. The second lot supports a house currently vacant and under periodic fits and starts of construction (I’m trying to finish a project house). Currently, I have to hop in my truck, drive over using a right of way driveway possibly disturbing my neighbors unnecessarily, to check on the construction site.
Drone tie-in:
I want to be able to send my drone, Icarus, up and over trees, then down thru a narrow-ish window in the tree canopy next door. Once there I want to loiter and “look around”.
My plan would be to set a pre-planned mission to take off from my back yard to the safe center of the yard next door. Mind you, both of these lots are wooded with lined with tall mature trees.
I’m looking for suggestions on how to do this, and return to home given that the position of Icarus could vary prior to RTH possibly encountering trees if not lined up with original point of vertical entry. I would initiate a second mission back if that is possible. The horizontal distance is only several hundred feet. Thanx for commentary.
