Happens often enough. Usually Thai UAV's. But typically they explode, not crash land.Ravensnest wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 6:13 pm this is certainly interesting to me. I wonder what may come out from this.

It's definitely not for sale down the local hobby shop.
It appears to be the Thai Military as the range is short.

Hard to be sure from looking at the pictures, but appears that an explosive trigger hatch opened and it deployed an emergency parachute.
