My drone brought back a swarm of bees!
I bought a DJI Lito X1 as my first ever drone. My primary use case is to explore with it while walking.
On my maiden test flight I kept it simple. Took off and went up to 100m. Did a 50m loop in a completely open area then pressed the return home button. As it was getting closer I could see haze around it. As it was about 20m I realised about 100 bees were swarming it! I panicked and moved away from the landing zone. As it landed I realised they were honey bees. As it turned off they lost interest and flew away. The drone is now covered in bees residue from the ones that didn’t survive the blades.
I should point out I’m in the UK on a hot day if that matters. Was such an odd experience that I wondered if this is common?
