The Quadcopter didn’t fail, I did.
After a successful first trials, I took the Quadcopter out for a second spin, hoping to get some good footage. I had lots of space to play with, but when it is up high and far away, you lose some of the spatial awareness.
So I got it stuck in a tree. REALLY high in the tree. We tried to get it down, but could not throw rocks even half as high as it is stuck up there. We even tried a sling shot.
So sad, I am now missing my quadcopter. However, this is precisely why I bought a cheap entry level copter to play with in the first place, so I can learn how to control it and what NOT to do with it: fly it too close to trees.
See if you can see it:
Look up….. way up!!
Need to wait to see if a big wind blows it down one of these days.
