Shoot It WA Posted at 2018-4-21 16:17
The smoke was causing some signal loss issues and there was some big up draughts rom the flames that knocked the drone around a bit. I was probably more worried about ash clogging up the motors.
One of the dangers to a drone from a bushfire is wind and embers. It does not look like the wind was too strong in this fire but you always need to stay upwind. Unfortunately, if the wind gets too strong, which can happen because of the fire, then the drone can get sucked towards the fire. |
