Okay, I’m not a conspiracy theorist type person…. These are not UFOs, at least not in the extraterrestrial sense. I know they’re drones, I saw and heard them several times, they are not birds. Three different times within a span of about 15 minutes. I saw groups of multiple small drones flying together in this sort of hive/swarm formation, behaving rather erratically together.
Link: Weird drone behavior
I was camped in a very remote part of Oregon, up on the cascades mountains crest at Olallie Lake. The first three drones came by from the east over the lake flying very quickly, I’d say 100 mph plus I heard them before I saw them, but they were still extremely silent, only caught them for glimpse. This was right about dawn, cause I just flown my own drone up to get some sunrise shots. I thought, that’s interesting, I am the only person up here in two of these campgrounds, maybe there’s someone over at the resort that is flying their FPV drones. Then about five minutes later two more came by from the same Easterly direction. That’s when I started to think this is really odd. So I pulled out my phone and was waiting to see if more came by, sure enough about five minutes later this group of about a dozen flew by over the lake from north to south at an altitude of about 3 to 400 AGL going so fast, nearly silent, that by the time I saw them, they were practically gone. I just barely managed to get this really ****** video. The odd part is their behavior when they’re flying together in that formation, just swarming all about each other, but still going forward extremely quickly.
Oregon doesn’t have any military bases, and to the east on the other side of the lake is 100 miles of Indian reservation. Absolutely no idea where these could’ve been coming from or going.
I know I was pretty much the only one there, because I arrived late, the evening before and drove through the campgrounds and there was no one there, I had my pick of the place. On the north end of the lake is a small resort with a couple cabins and a small campground, But it seemed virtually empty as well as there were no lights and no voices, which you can hear a conversation across the lake if there were.
So, what kind of drones fly like this has anyone seen something like this? I put up my own Mavic air 2s to try to emulate the flight path and at approximately the same height, in sport mode, mine probably only went about a quarter to a third of the speed and was exponentially louder, even louder than those 12 together.
Any thoughts?
