[QUOTE="pmshop, post: 72620, member: 3174"] I am a frequent fog bank/ low cloud flyer. 1640ft (500m) is the Spark max. I have performed about 12 flights under those circumstances and have never had the issue of the craft not coming back down. Quite the opposite. I have to slow the craft down because the ultrasonic sensors become confused and [B][U]shut off[/U][/B] with the warning land immediately....but who listens to that? :D Without the ultrasonic sensors, the craft cannot "see" the ground. My first landing in this condition I hit the ground pretty hard because it will not stop. Ever since then, I expect the craft not to slow down - so I do so manually. And enjoy! [MEDIA=youtube]QAh1SVhVfK8[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]24ei2x0Vq5I[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]SLW3_2sJOx8[/MEDIA] As far as breaking laws in the US, under section 336 is not a law but guidelines for safe flight. However, we are now flying under Part 101E and trying to find out how that reads. [/QUOTE]
