Domingo is slowing gaining her confidence flying, this time high above the West End. Well, not that high really with her maximum altitude ( not counting the height of our condo building's rooftop launch site) 58 metres.

Phantom 3 Drone - First Pix and Video!

"Domingo" is the name of my Phantom 3 standard drone (OK, the drone app insisted the quadcopter be named).  She's had a few hours of flying so far, mostly so that her pilot can get some experience.  Domingo herself is very well behaved and loves to hover at 30 metres just taking in the view.

Here are a few still shots and a video taken at Third Beach earlier today:






DON'T MISS THE VIDEO, eh!?  IT'S HERE. /\
