You need a swarm of drones for light shows!Did you see the episode of X Files
where the drones take control? Scary because it is so close to being possible.

The Video-GTD Winter Camp 2021 Bill,Technically the specs list it as 6.2 miles.
Of course assuming total line of sight on a perfect weather day and a fuill
battery in and out.The farthest I have gone to date is about 16,000 feet
getting a shot from Devu park in Covington sending it to the west end
neighborhood (near Music Hall) . So the battery once it got there was down to
56% so I went pretty much back right away. It generally when you get down to
20% starts wanting to head home and you have to start overriding those
prompts, but generally it’s a good idea not to push it because after a certain
point it will just land and that might be in a river, middle of I-75, a roof or
power line, or in a forest with a million branches<g>.It is currently illegal
to fly 30 min after sundown unless you have a specific waiver. Without street
or building lights it would not have picked up much even though we did have a
brilliant moon.mark From: gtd-net-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

backpack camp in Red River Gorge is a compilation from this weekend. It was
pretty close to the Nada tunnel and drone shots show that proximity. The Gorge
is indeed still one of the most beautiful places we as a group have camped at.
