Flying under a bridge is not as implied much problem in fact.
As long as you don't loiter or do it too slow ... its fine. The loss of GPS is only momentary and should not kick out to ATTI unless you are really slow / or the bridge is a very large serious metal structure and affects compass as well.
I’m sure it’s possible and along with many success stories there are also stories of the quad losing signal under a bridge, then attempting a RTH only to fly into the underside of the bridge then crashing into the water below. I’ve also read about a quad approaching a NFZ, becoming confused then do a perfect auto land in a lake never to be seen again. I’m a firm believer in it’s your quad,do with it as you please but personally I would never take a chance...quads can be a tad bit unpredictable, I saw on the news a $20,000.00 Russian mail delivery quad was being demonstrated to the media, after reaching a height of around 50 ft it took off like a rocket smashing into many,many pieces up against a building, lol.... |
