ChaseFrench 0 #1 October 14, 2016 I'm a young skydiver full of great/terrible Ideas. My vision for this sport is never ending. With the progression of drones and the amount of badasses in our sport, its only a matter of time tell we combine the two. My question is do you think we will see a change from aircraft to drone ?. If so would it be a welcomed change, or would you like to leave out this new form of transportation. Also when do you expect to see the first skydive made from a drone, if ever ?.

mjosparky 3 #5 October 15, 2016 Drones have been used to video big way dirt dives.With 150+ in the formation a drone gives the organizers an overview of the dirt dive they can't get while standing on the ground. Speaking as someone who flies drones and I don't for see them being used in freefall. At least not for several. years.My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
