-
In the case of a crash all debris is to be picked up from the crash site.

Telemetry Signal / Software Safety Parameters
Due to losing signal many times during testing we increased the signal from 433 MHz to 915 MHz. In addition, we are applying an altitude limiter to prevent the tricopter from surpassing a safe testing altitude.
