Phantom 3 drone down

[sar104]

wow, amazing.....I could see the tree tops getting closer. But definitely a tree.

Right there just before the turn at 2.47 miles. AGL was 94 ft. Those trees are taller than they look.

The ground was pretty clear underneath the trees, not much undergrowth. I practically walked right up on it.

I owe the footage to the DJI production crew. I hate to say never, but it will be awhile before this starship goes off on another adventure like this one. I definitely will do more research on my fight plans.
