This gives you an idea of what capability cameras on quadcopters have.

that's a bit misleading

there are multiple drones capable of much better resolution than that, mind you at a cost, and then if commercial then licensed by CASA and not worth the loss if found doing the wrong thing

I too would litigate if the drone I was flying today got taken out- the thing is worth over $100k, mind you hawks have taken a liking to it in the past hence the eyes

and yes it can fly above the limits mentioned earlier, but again need license to do so, and VHF etc etc.



and again this is old tech around 3 years old, camera tech for the photogrammetry has advanced, if this flew over your house at 150m you wouldn't even know :angel:

Not sure why the need for the personal attack. In over 100 posts in my thread, I've only made maybe four posts (can't be bothered going over seven pages to actually count them). Yes it was my front yard about 8 to 10m away, about 10 ft in the air, just above the height of my gutter. That's where I saw it before it took off. From where it was you can easily see over my side gate (6 ft high). Anyway, as the OP of this thread, I'd like to see it die a death please. Now, can I wire a 200W solar panel with 1.5mm wire?

Robbo..,


Whatever you do, DO NOT ask about the drones...

Robbo  send a PM to one of the mods and get it locked or deleted .  IMHO is has just turned into a personal attack 
 That's a cool looking drone 4wd26

I thought mods were stuff like beer bottle openers on your CT and such and I don't know who to ask?

Happy for it to get locked...
