Drones

[VAGIN]

I was watching a tv programe on drones , could they be a handy tool for the fancier No more flagging birds / take them to race points and training points can let you see around the area before any birds are libbed / can chase Bops away from the lofts . can find bops nest where you can monitor them without climbing cliffs or trees. Good Idea/ Bad Idea ??????

I have 2 drones,best thing I ever got,handy for buzzing birds of the roof get some great shots of the birds flyingwhen you put it on follow mode

 

Also very easy to fly you can fly it out of sight click return to home and will land it's self where you took off from

Cheerson cx20 was £150 ready to fly with gps with out camera

 

 

Eachine. H8 was £20 ready to fly what I use to flag birds

As am not scared I hit roofs and damage it

As blades are really cheap and couldn't. Care less about it for the price

Have a look on you tube - Cox's Stack, Lochee, Dundee by DJI Phanton - at 33 seconds you will see something taking off from the left hand side of the ledge

If you take prop guards off drone and do happen to hit a poor bird it's like a flying blender and can be put to good use lol
