    Supposed Drone Hits Airliner in Mexico

    Have you guys listened to this? If it was a drone, it appears it was a large one to do this much damage (shown at the end), I wouldn’t think a phantom or mavic could do this kind of damage, but I’m no engineer or pilot. What do you think?

    Rant: Helicopter attacks drone

    It’s funny we don’t see anything in the news about this. I’m not a pilot, but it sure looked unsafe for that chopper to come down and blow the mavic out of the sky. I mean it could’ve slammed into someone in the water.

    results of drone / aircraft mid air collision damage study in the UK

    Isn't part of the bird strike testing on aircraft windshield, shooting a minimum 3 lb frozen chicken out of an air cannon, which seems quite a bit harder than a quad hitting the windshield.

    Yeah, here in the States we'd say, "It tastes just like chicken".

    Drones now banned in Indiana State Parks

    So I'm not from the area, but couldn't you still launch next to the park, if it is a legal/owner approved area and fly over the park with no consequences, right? But I would make sure where I'm going so I don't have to land in the park for some battery issue, etc.

    Here's a YouTube link on the installation. I didn't realize loctite could damage the plastic.

    Fractured Frame

    I just ordered these from Amazon to install as contingency protection for stress cracks. Hope these work for you. I've also seen repairs on you tube where the YouTuber repaired the cracks with epoxy first then added the the additional protection covers.
