Out shooting the other day, we used the drone to not only range the distance but to give feedback on where we were hitting. It was great! The range was much farther than we guestimated, and with the drone overhead we could see where the bullet strikes were and quickly compensate. We are taking the bird every time now!
The distance to the target was ~1858 feet. The argument was wither it was 450 or 550 yards away... we were both wrong!
In the image above, we could see (real-time) the bullets hitting at the base of the right leg of the target. Having a larger tablet to fly the drone is a BIG deal here, to see better where the strikes are. My old eyes could barely make it out on the phone we were using. A quick adjustment was ready.
Here is a view from above the shooter. Target is at the base of the taller trees, to the right of them. You might even recognize the spot...
No real good video to show what we were seeing... but here is from a different time when the drone could show us steel strikes.
