The best thing about drones is, when there is nothing to shoot ....

I've always thought a fast first viev quadcopter would be great for scouting and pushing animals towards you or your shooting party , but I would have thought that having one following you around would remove any stealth you might have, animals seem to freak out at that kind of stuff.

I think you can set the distance and angle from where it records from.

Good points but I didn't really order it for stalking or proper hunting.

Will learn how to get best use from it over time. As for the remote control chopper. I have one and hadn't thought of rounding up vermin.

can have the chopper in action whilst the drone films the sequence, coursing them towards us then dispatching. Bring on the Adler A110 ;)

FANTASTIC IDEA THANKS ONE WHEEL !!! :drinks:

I saw the promo for these as well and was very tempted to get on board but after having been bitten a couple times by DJI I'll wait for gen 2 or 3 before investing. Been flying multis for a few years now and currently have a Carbon Core 950 Hex with full DJI A2 FC with data link and a Phantom quad / go-pro all controlled by a Futaba 18MZ radio. These things are massive fun though take a little getting used to when flying. Mainly fly the Phantom these days as it's small and easy to fly, the CC950 takes a little time to set up and doesn't have much endurance due to the almost 8kg weight.
I really hope the Lily performs as well as it did in the promo, perfect for Gen X as now they can take aerial selfies :)

Will definitely attach the collar to my Rottie when he's hunting bunnies too. The boy loves a selfie. He's the poser in my profile pic

Pretty cool :thumbsup:

20 battery is going to be very limiting but I'm sure they'll improve that in time.

Im in contact with them already regarding battery type and config.

May have a geek mate keen to work on an improvement. Easily swapped out cells from a sealed compartment idea so have spares on charge via my charge bank which also gets topped up via solar panel charger I already use...

The one main downfall to sort out.

I can see hunters becoming drone pilots, attach some small calibre then shoot animal from the sky..
There is also a risk of having drone shot down by AA hunters division:)
