Been following a guy who started a Drone Deer Recovery business. Some pretty cool video's. He's also now doing deer herd analysis for landowners giving them a much better estimate of population and buck to doe ratio. https://www.youtube.com/@dronedeerrecovery

Very cool. His drones are pretty pricey.
January 21, 20232 yr Author I had a security guard follow my drone back to me this morning at Stowe Ski Resort. They were saying that they controlled the air space above their property. Wrong, the FAA is the only one that can restrict airspace. The only thing that the resort can control is not allowing anyone to launch a drone from their property. I flew from state property just down the road from the resort. The kid was nice enough about it. He was just doing what he was told.

The kid was nice enough about it. He was just doing what he was told. I had a guy follow my drone back to the dock last summer. Luckily he was just curious about the drone. I ended up doing a video for him of his kids tubing. He wanted to pay me but I refused. Found a case of beer on my porch a week later with a nice thank you note.
January 22, 20232 yr Platinum Donating Member Was in St Agatha Maine yesterday. Dude was flying a drone over parking Lot A sxs with tracks parked and the drone hovered checking it out from about 30 ft up Then a smokeshow blonde stepped out of it and the drone dropped to 10 ft above her to check her out..

That's not cool at all. Even 30 feet is intrusive IMO.
