This is a silly thread. An object free falling from 15' would impact the ground at something like 21mph. Anything that is lightweight enough to fly, that is small enough to be carried with one hand, yet robust enough to mount an HD camera, gimbal and FPV system, and inexpensive enough to be purchased by most of us, will almost certainly be damaged by a 21mph impact. If you're disappointed by this, then I wonder if you live on the same planet as the rest of us, where Physics does not apply.
Of course my trainer drone (a Syma X4) has survived countless crashes into walls, floors, furniture, etc...but it weighs a fraction of what my Phantom 3 weighs, and mass/weight will absolutely effect impact force (kinetic energy) and the potential or even likelihood of incurring damage. |
