Canada Day RB Drone Capture
I was too tired to foil anymore so I tried to see if I could fly my Mini3 in the the middling winds and follow my old guy crew. It seems the Mini didn't have much problems with the occasional 25kt gusts and I managed to keep her dry and whole. Still learning the art of follow cam, but it's hard to really learn it when I'd really rather be foiling. Fun regardless.

Re: Canada Day RB Drone Capture
That's really cool. Do you have to worry about aviation rules and whatnot or does it depend on the size/weight, flight height etc..?

Re: Canada Day RB Drone Capture
Hi Keen! I fly a very small UAV, sub 250g, so the foundation rule is , "don't do anything stupid".
The basic rules found here - https://tc.canada.ca/sites/default/file ... _EN_V8.pdf
More in-depth micro-drone rules found here. https://tc.canada.ca/en/aviation/drone- ... -operation
One interesting limitation is that it's prohibited to take off/land in CRD and Provincial Parks. For RB, I took off/landed from the roadside.
It's a pretty cool tool!

Awesome swell you guys have down there. Slick rider, you need a faster foil.
