Flying the ResearchDrones UAV in Holland
Last weekend we have been visiting the Netherlands to train Sander, a brave young biology scientist. Sander is planning to monitor Chimpanzees in Gabon with our Drone.
This time we got everything right. The autopilot was working perfectly, performing automatic take-offs and landings. The cameras shot quiet sharp images.
The current solution is able to carry quiet some payload, approx. 1kg. The planned endurance on this airframe is 1h. It is fully autonomous and the flight can be planned with a laptop through a map and then be uploaded to the drone.
Here are some impressions from the flight training and testing in Holland:
