Super Slow Mo video

[Roos]

Smarter Every Day on YouTube has some great video of a Mavic Mini hitting a hard object with the L/F rotor hub. It shows how well the drone can take a "Sudden Stoppage" along with an arm being displaced. I recommend watching the whole episode it's a good one, but the drone footage starts around 15 mikes in. There is a lot to look at with everything going on with the props too. DJI might want to take a peak. In my prior life I was a UH-1H Maintenance Test Pilot in the Army and I find this drone flying in retirement great fun.

Wow, tough bird. I'm quite surprised that the prop didn't break and it managed to keep flying.
