Hiya, again! Building a water-lovin' FirstPersonView drone has been a bit of an obsession of mine, and I'm always getting a little closer to it! So today I'm testing a flotation setup and waterproofing quality for this 7" FPV drone. This didn't go smoothly, but it was an excellent, educational testing session. My mind is tingling with different design ideas to try. Most importantly, the waterfoofing seems to be holding up well (yes, I know I misspelled waterproofing, but it sounds so funny I left it that way. Pro tip: make sure your antennas stay ABOVE the water when it's floating!
