Hi John,
Thanks for your advice and explanation. This hand catch thingy is worst case scenario, hence safety visor and long glove made available
. I am even considering a butterfly net style catch if motor ESC wont burn
Likely scenario for the moving boat is, the drone will be landing on the top most sun deck of the boat , which is a 110 footer slow 7 knot live-on-board dive boat, if stopping the vessel is not possible and this will be 10% chance only. 90% chance the boat will anchor when drone take off and lands. The boat has many sail rigging lines though and the guard rails, in case of bad landing... would allow a drone to pass thru and fall overboard...LOL.
I am just brainstorming possibilities because many of you here has high hours experience and understand the Phantom algorithm well.
What I learnt so far for Phantom is : in high wind, landing my X shape Phantom 4 on a bouncy wooden plank pier is not as topple-free as my 3DR Solo H shape frame, given same condition landing into the wind.
But 3DR Solo IMU initialization does not allow any kind of instability, so no boat mode take-off possible, not even by hand launch...unless water super super calm.
Thanks again John, much appreciated.
