Drone and crane,
FYI...
I walked through the parking lot today and joined a small conversation with the drone operator. His purpose is to photograph and video the crane for a promotional video, I presume he’s hired by the crane manufacturer. This crane is the first of its model, from Italy. It features a strengthen cage over the cab to facilite the extended boom without cables from a tall truss over the cab. The cables at the back anchored to the low weights counter balance the boom. This achieves a shorter crane profile.
As for the drone flying, he mention aviation regulations limit his flight height to 400 feet. Planes are regulated to no lower than 500 feet. So there is a 100 foot space where neither is allowed to fly.
Fun, fun, fun. No other pics today, I’m too busy.
Cheers.
