You don't get continuous control of flares' brightness and positioning, though?

You don't get continuous control of flares' brightness and positioning, though?
- gambiting 10y agoI imagine you could attach a flare to the bottom of a drone to get a similar light intensity, without carrying a heavy battery setup.
- meredydd 10y agoYou probably could, but the likely outcome of a magnesium fire burning right underneath a LiPo battery pack might get messy.
- gambiting 10y agoWell, magnesium flares are usually cool enough to hold in your hand while the tip is burning, so if you attached it pointing down it should be fine? It's only a guess though.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoDo magnesium flares actually get similar light intensities? If it is the case, then I'd imagine the person holding such a flare is essentially blinded by the light.
