It has a flight range of up to 12 miles / 20 kilometres.
Jeez … ![]()
Looking forward to the DJI Mavic 4 FO. ![]()
Would get around the DJI FAA frequency cert bans!! ![]()
12 miles of fibre trailing behind it, over trees, buildings etc. So what happens if you fly out over trees etc , 7 miles out then return home with the fibre entwined in branches/ twigs etc ?
You got a warm house for winter ![]()
These drones don’t come home
Ahh ( never thought of that) Works out a pretty expensive way of obtaining intel ![]()

A cheap way of fucking the Ruskies!
It might have an auto-cut when it gets to the end? …or before RTH?
Quiet easy to do. The fibre is, quite obviously, VERY thin!
RTH doesn’t need connection … as most of us know or have tested. ![]()
maybe there are no trees in Germany?.. first thought I had… how do you get your expensive zoom and thermal camera drone back after a mission… followed by… do you just cut the cord of your enemies drone and they are done?
one way drone it’s maybe a good idea but a recon drone … not sure
one way drone you need to know the target direction to some degree before flight… as X miles zigzagging over bushes and occupied trenches cannot be a good idea…
Even if there were - the Ukrainian pilot has got lost.
I reckon a big problem out in Ukraine might be GPS spoofing though, if the drone has RTH and suddenly finds the home point is 200k South of where it is ![]()

Perhaps one will “spoof” its way to Southampton?
Or my house ( as long as it hasn’t got 5lb of munitions attached ) ![]()

Mine first! it was my idea!
My house survived a shit load of bombs in WWII (adjacent to the Spitfire’s birth-place) … I’m sure it will be OK.
What happens if get wrapped around the trees ? Or chokes the wildlife from all this fibre ?
The bombs will cause more damage
This shows lack of thinking and desperation .
You think being bombed, mortared and shot at by the Russians isn’t sufficient reason to justify any solution relevant?
I see what its for but just imagining what could go wrong on the consumer side. There I am filming a ship and next thing im dragged in and water skiing behind it holding onto my controler because the cable is wrapped around the ships propeller.
