Steam & Excursion > C&TSRR = Drone CrashDate: 08/29/16 09:24 C&TSRR = Drone Crash Author: Wacky-roger1942 I was shooting the C&TSRR Pile Driver For The Friends Of The C&TSRR and into the flight the Drone (Solo) became unstable and then lost contact with the drone. Nothing I tried did anything and the drone started down and drifting until it crashed. I cleaned it and put on new props to replace the broken ones and took it to a large clear area and tested it and it did just fine except the Gimbal was making a lot of noise. I tried another flight and it seemed to work ok. I am sending in the logs and also making the video available to 3DR.

Roger Hogan Chama, NM Train Stuff Date: 08/29/16 11:00 Re: C&TSRR = Drone Crash Author: skstone Nice to see your drone crashed safely. Last fall, my son had one crash into his Jeep, destroying his windshield and actually knocking a hole in it.
The drone, camera, etc. was scrap metal/plastic. Date: 08/29/16 11:40 Re: C&TSRR = Drone Crash Author: SP4360 "Pull up, terrain, Pull up,terrain:, D'OH!!!!!!!!!!!! Any landing you can walk away from..................

Roger Hogan Chama, NM Train Stuff Date: 08/29/16 17:42 Re: C&TSRR = Drone Crash Author: drgw0579 I hope Roger's videos help convince you all to get involved with railroad restoration projects. I never thought I'd get to do many things like this. I overheard someone say "I thought I'd never see a steam powered pile driver work again". Volunteering can make things like this possible.

Is the 3DR much better than the DJI? Love your videos, keep them coming. See you in two weeks. I think I'm booked in your penthouse!
