High Speed Video of Drone Strike

Be sure to read the test conditions.

University of Dayton Research Institute does other aircraft strike testing. The wing is that of a Mooney M-20. Speed of impact is 238 mph. No props on the quad. Impact very carefully aligned for striking on the wing tangentially. Thus the quad cannot deflect.
