What about flight 71? Any updates?

Just checked, still waiting for images or data.... We've had a bunch of images from the helicopter in the last 24 hours from flight 70, so comms are not an issue.

NASA lost out a huge PR opportunity by not equipping the drone with its own GoPro.

They did the next best thing though, we have a total of 11,616 images from the helicopter's 2 cameras.
