On December 12 at around 11:10 am, a fixed-wing drone being tested by a company near the Jingzhou Olympic Sports Center in Hubei Province lost control, crashed into a structure, and caught fire.

According to witnesses, the drone collided with a tower crane before falling. Parts of its wings landed near someone's home, sparking a fire. Debris from the drone, including wheels and steel frames, was scattered across the site.

Local firefighters and other emergency departments quickly arrived at the scene and extinguished the fire. The incident resulted in one person being injured, who is currently receiving medical treatment.

The exact cause of the accident is under further investigation.

View the video. It’s obviously not as described.

Supposedly a military drone.

It’s a pretty big explosion and fire.

Something crashed. That’s about all one can say from that ridiculous footage.

Yet, the people in N.J, and the Northeast have no reason to be concerned about drone crashes.

I was just commenting on the low quality of the chinese video. That’s all. Absolutely no agenda.

I am retired and willing to leave agendas to numerous others. They have all that covered. :-)

“The exact cause of the accident is under further investigation.”

Basic drone pilot training before being sent to US for operations. The responsible cadet has been executed.

Cool (like I said).

I thought the video is pretty clear. BOOM. Little mushroom cloud, fire.
