EVO II 6K Pro Drone Put Out to Pasture

JD's new Autel Robotics EVO II 6K Pro drone suffered a brief disconnect from its controller on its maiden voyage to the pasture the other day. But there were no problems at all on this trip, neither with the controller nor the FPV video transmission. At 3,300 feet out or so, that's about the limit of JD's line-of-sight-vision, so he'll probably never use the rest of the manufacturer's claimed 18,000-foot range unless there's an FAA rule change. There was a horse drinking in the pasture, and no apparent damage to the buildings from Hurricane Ida which blew through a couple of weeks ago. The subdivision itself has plenty of curbside hurricane damage debris awaiting pickup. The controller accurately nailed the autonomous landing in the same sidewalk block of takeoff. Shenandoah subdivision in Baton Rouge, LA. 4K video edited with Pinnacle Studio 23, and music from its Scorefitter.
