Can someone explain what is the best technique for hand catching the drone in order to avoid landing on the ground? Thanks
Also very smart to have the Phantom facing away from you when you bring it in to catch, so that if something goes wrong, it will fly away from you and not into you.Thank you guys!
Just like using a ladder, pouring coffee, crossing the road, driving on the freeway etc, etc.one miss and you have a trip to the er.
Who let mother in here? Hand catching is the best idea if you use cation when doing it. And is way safer then running with scissors!
Good process! The only things I would add is to insure your fingers are OFF the sticks when walking over to grab the craft. I always watch the craft a few seconds in a hover on it's own to insure it's stable. And during that walk, don't take your eyes off the craft.I bring in about five feet away from me and about two feet above my head. I walk to it and grab I with my right hand at the back L or corner of the left leg and with left hand on controller I push the left joystick all the way down till the props shut all the way off and the it turn off the battery. Always keep your hands and cloths clear of the props. Don't do it if the drone is moving around to much due to wind use common sense
For some folks you are right. You cannot be timid or scared, you need to be confident and have a clear mind to follow a safe process. You need a step by step process to insure you're minimizing risk. If you follow a good process, it's pretty safe for the average guy.hand catching is not a good idea.
