United States Practical Shooting Association

2018 USPSA Multi-Gun Nationals-Day 1

A gallery of competitors on selected stages from the 2018 USPSA National Championships at the Pro Gun facility in Boulder City, Nevada.

The purpose of my galleries is to show shooters and non-shooters alike what an enjoyable sport this is, while never having the drone interfere with the competitors or distract them from their task.

As always, I'd appreciate any of the competitors correcting me on names in these videos!! A lot of the shirts with sponsor logos look the same from space!

Secondly, you may notice that some videos seem to show trouble in aiming the camera on the drone. There sure was!!!

Every time the manufacturer updates the software, there are more banned places and warnings built in. In this case, a large warning message that I was near a 'recreational airport' popped up and blocked nearly the entire face of my iPad—on both drones! It would not allow itself to be cleared, so much of my flying was nearly blind. All I could see were the outer corners of the iPad's screen, so I looked for small things I could use as landmarks to guess where the shooter might be.

I added the final two pictures to show a modest entertainment offered at the club. Rent a tank and blow the bejesus out of a taxicab!

On the first day, I flew the drone above competitors in the three super squads who were engaging stages 10 through 14.
