Lake Shadow & St. Michael High School

His Yuneec Typhoon H drone hadn't been out to Lake Shadow in a while, so JD decided to send it out there this morning. He also had it visit St. Michael High School in Shenandoah, LA before heading home. Lake Shadow is about 2,290 feet from the launch point. Altitude was 312 feet the whole way. Video to the controller gets a little iffy at that distance, but so does keeping the drone physically in sight. So that was far enough. Pre-flight turned up a loose camera gimbal damper, which meant spending 20 minutes or so with a bread wrapper tie hooked around the neck of the damper to thread it back into place. And a second damper came loose during the repair of the first. But eventually, the drone and camera were airworthy. 4K video from tyhe Yuneec CG03+ camera.
