Drone coverage of Boyne Thunder 2014?

[Blue Oval]

Looking for feed back for Boyne Thunder this year. If we went with a group of drones covering the poker run, what do you think we need to know? I question the weather conditions they can fly in, how fast can they fly, can they take still photos, landing one out in Lake Michigan on a boat ? Trying to get some info to take back to the board. I know FPC has used them, video looked good, just checking on any set backs we need to know about.

I think your biggest draw back will be weather and battery life.

Had several e-mails on this. Not sure if we are there yet for this, getting a good education on Drones.

test run at the wet t-shirt contest and then if all goes well, let them fly over the boats!

They will not work, during a test trial the drone showed a stationary boat presumed to be a card stop boat and in reality it was WRINK running wide open !

I thought "THIN SKIN" applied to WRINK,but I'm changing that to "FORESKIN" after I looked over some of the abuse about my age.

U'r age is the least of U'r probs!!! Bigger issues R Depends dependency & the low supply of little blue pills that barely cum close 2 giv'n U the stimulation 2 drive that new vette!!! Moral: U should just turn the the vette over 2 me 4 safe keeping!!!

Why would I ever let someone that drives a MALIBOO even be in the same zip code as my car ?i
