Getting high with Frankendrone.....

Decided it was time to really test some of the software for the Arducopter (APM 2.8). Was really glad that "Return To Launch" works as well as it does. Also, I see now some of the reasons for CF props.

Wow! What a wild ride! I was expecting the water landing, then the last minute, you caught it and headed for the tree! My wife is asking me what the hell am I watching since I was saying "Whoa, No, Not The Water!" at an elevated sound level ...

This is what I experienced with my Naze32 Full Rev6 and immediately switched it out for a NAZA-M Lite, then to a NAZA-M V2. No more scary rides like that for me!

Duane,
The moment I started watching the video, I spotted your favorite tree.

I thought, why is he headed there #$%&-+()
Lol



But you survived. Proud of you! You old "red leg"

Got an FPV system coming so I can do quick reference using a 4.3" LCD screen. While I was flying I thought I had it all under control and everything was fine. Then I watched the vid.......................f**king meow!
