Airplane Hoop Drone Challenge

 

We like to take on crazy challenges at Flite Test and sometimes they don’t quite work out the way we want. We actually attempted flying racing quads through a hula hoop attached to an Opterra during a nicer winter day and didn’t have much luck, but with some adjustments we accomplished what we set out to do! Well…sort of.

 

 

 

Things we learned:

  • The Opterra is a beast and can take some hits, even from vicious quads that want to tear it up.
  • We can get a plane back up in the air with a little tape and with Bob’s help.
  • We definitely want to attempt more crazy challenges like this.

 

What is the next challenge we should do? Leave your suggestions in the comments below!
