I saw a YouTube video of a guy lifting a 5 gallon water jug (with 37.5 pounds of water in it) with a drone to an altitude of 25 feet and hold it there for 5 minutes. It must have been quite a drone to do that.

Here's my take on this, I may be wrong, Quadcopters are engineered to take into consideration the amount of weight in addition to its own weight to carry and maintain their flight aerodynamics for a stable flight. Adding weight will affect the aerodynamics considerably. So, adding a second...

Hey, a great way to cut down on J-walkers!

I always have always believed that the future soldier is not a human. Fly a few of these inside North Korea and let them take out some high ranking generals. Then, drop a note simply stating "GOTCHA, YOUR NEXT, FAT BOY. DON'T GO TO SLEEP"! We'll let our robots fight our ground wars, air wars...

Bet he had a whale of a good time!

There's a great feature, if your quad drops in the drink, automatic buoyancy floats deploy and your quad comes back to you. Like "COME HOME" only it's called "FLOAT HOME"!

Woo, hoo, hoo, hoo, woo, hoo, hoo, hoo rollin' down da river. Sayin' bye, bye...

Thanks!

Of course you've left off one important feature: Where do you get it???

Sounds like you're on the right track. I'm sure things will work out for you. Good luck.

Why don't you check with the Italian Consulate? ENAC seems extreme for accrediting yourself and your drone, unless you are going in as a professional photographer.

I fail to understand the last few entries to my thread. They seem to have little to do with why I created the thread in the first place.

Unsure! I have two quads, a helicopter and a fixed wing. All are R/C. Each have a different TX. Also, sorry about the 'Limey' crack.

I heard that you're called Limeys because of all the Margaritas you consume (not)!

Thanks for the info. I think, though, we haven't used Pounds since the American Revolution. Yankee Doodle Doo!

Fellow Quadsters, I am looking for a good Drone/Quadcopter Flight Simulator so I can improve my piloting of my quads. I have seen some references to these before, but, like the common dummy I seem to be, I have failed to write them down. I would prefer FREE simulators if possible. Thank you...

Thank you. Cool!

Too bad there is no video of his accomplishments. I really have no idea who he is.

If you have an account, you can set your own profile status. At least, I've done that. Now, the powers that be can probably do that as will. don't know that for sure. A pecking order remains within the hierarchy of live flying objects, including Birds, Insects, Flying Mammals, Boeing and Air...
