Just found this. Drone looking over Carlyle lake with a 'fish eye' lens.

seems odd that it looks liked it actually scares a sail boat away, but I doubt that's the case. But the lake is way larger than the video makes it look..

The drone may have been harassing the sailboat a bit but not chasing. These pictures make me want to get a drone and a Hero camera. Bet I could launch it off my Legend boat for aerial recon.



Landing it on your boat would be a hell of a feat. Really.



Yes I'd imagine so unless it was a 'copter on a really calm day. And it'd take a lot of practice!

You wouldn't want to do it on a day like this where Carlyle can really show it's teeth! LOL I've been on it with an 18 ft. IO when it was worse than that. Fortunately we were close to the docks when the wind blew in. It was a freaky deal too. It wasnt' supposed to come in like it did...but it did.
