Hi!
I'm still a rookie at 6 flights, but in 2 weeks I will be visiting a beautiful area and will be doing some Arial shots of some trout lakes.
Of course I'm very worried about sinking the phantom 2 -- these lakes are deep 100+ feet in places so a dunk in the water means its lost forever, where as a recovery could possibly be salvaged with significantly less cost.
I see some people have made some pontoons on youtube out of foam. Is there a recommended way of doing this? I imagine this adds some drag, does it cause any flight issues?
Any other tips welcome
