Drone rescue

pilatus

Hi Lads and Ladies, wasnt sure where to post this but this forum anything seems to go so i'll park it here and mods can move if needs be.

I recently helped my friend retrieve his drone from the roof an abdandoned council storage shed. The sheds roof was rotten with sections having already fallen in, so ladders where out of the question. I found the drone and amputated a few clothes hangers to make hooks and attahced via fishing line , and up she went. Here's the video if you want to have a look, cheers :-)

Hardly unique. There are 3 professional outfits in our medium sized town alone.

They're pests.

I brought my drone to play around with on my holidays to Pakistan last year.
The authorities threw a complete wobbler! Weirdos.

This thing can fly up to 3.5 miles out and beam the video back to you at 720p while recording it at up to 4k quality video, has sonar built in under the body so it will not collide with the ground if its autolanding, has gps should you lose connection it will fly itself back to you. These exact units are used by the discovery channel to record documentaries. Toys they are not

Amazing how it got stranded on a roof so.

Still, come on, big boy toys.

Watching this vid has inspired me to build a drone for missions to intercept and sabotage a drone that is in the process of rescuing another drone.

For rescuing stuck drones, of course.

OP, it would have been cooler, if you had rescued the first drone with a second drone.

That would have been really cool.

Oh boys and their toys!

Those drones are a bloody nuisance and an invasion of privacy. They should all be shot out of the sky on sight.

How much does one of those drones cost, and are they difficult to fly?

Good vid - mind you I am a bit wasted

Nice to see you got your remote control toy.
Tomorrow, see how paint dries.

Señor Fancy Pants

Look at you, ya fancy bastard with your improvisation. What's goin' on, ya think you're better than us? Huh, huh?!

Why didn't you just put some rope around your shoe and throw it onto the roof and drag the drone down.

Posh bastard

I bought myself a new pair of laces for my boots.
