I was highly motivated to learn how to fly the drone home simply because of the terrain here. When I fly across the canyon, which I often do, then I am in the zone where you weight the cost of the drone against the effort to recover it in case of a crash. There is no access to that area, other than on foot, breaking your own trail through rocks and brush. Everything here has either fangs, stingers, needles, thorns, horns, teeth, claws or all of the above. And 1 mile of horizontal travel may require 3 or 4 miles of up and down traversing of terrain. I have thought about this a lot, but in the end I just go fly. I have prepared myself as much as possible to control the drone in an unexpected situation, but bottom line is, what will be, will be.

Sounds like my living room. |
