First of all, you need to be in control of the boat, and by that i don't mean operating it, i mean if you need to boat to stop/start etc you will be able to get it done.
If the boat has a metal hull I wouldn't chance it, same if it has any kind of radio/radar equipment unless it can be turned off for the take-off and landing.
I recently did a successful couple of flights from a small fibre-glass hulled boat and the only setting I changed was Dynamic Homepoint, that way i wouldn't have had more than 15m to travel back to the last homepoint if something goes wrong. I didn't let any of the three batteries i used get below 50%. I also looked to the shore for 'ditch points' so if it did look like it had gone haywire i could fire it across before it went in the water. I took off from the top of the cabin at the front of the boat but found it much easier to hand catch it for landing, both when the boat was at a complete stand-still. |
