    Parachute

    Mmmmm...I didn't really answer my own question but will, partially, now, New FAA / ASTM F3322 regulations lets drones equipped with parachutes fly over people. - Blog It still doesn't answer the question of the difference between the $1800 'chute and the $300 'chute.

    Parachute

    The shoreline Sunrise

    Aw you're killin' me! I have to get up early and try a bit of this. I'm temporarily in Goleta for what will probably be a few more weeks, maybe a month, then it's back down to Camarillo. You're work is very inspirational to me. I bought a used P4P and am still building my confidence flying...
