Though I'd share another of my videos seems like you all enjoyed my Winter Drone one.

These tips are super helpful. A fly away drone really scares me. Do you know any tips to secure your drone?

Great tips! Thanks. How many batteries you bring on your vacation?

wow!
Thank you for the tips！

At least 4, that way I get an almost an hour of flight time when we go out.

I always try to have my remote with me. that way it limits flyways because the remote itself is hardwired to the drone. i have not see the remote malfunction yet and I feel is the true last line of defense for not losing or damaging your drone. Also always keep a line of site.

Good stuff, thank you for sharing!

That's a good tip. Yeah keeping a line of site would really help to secure it. How about having a tracking device. Do you think it is super helpful?

Depending where you are/flying from there may be restrictions. Here are the FAA's:

And the CAA's (fairly similar)https://www.caa.co.uk/Passengers ... allowed-in-baggage/:

tracking device on spark is pointless - good device cost half of spark , second it add's weight to this tiny drone and add radio interference you should keep away.

MY OPINION

so if a family of three goes traveling each can hold up to 2 batteries each?

Ohh so you've tried using a tracking device. What tracker have you tried?

Yeah a tracker maybe a bit heavy for a drone but so far in my experienced it did helped a lot in terms of securing my drone.

That's my understanding of it

Cool, thanks for sharing!
