How To Land A Drone In Your Hand

This very brief video demonstrating how to land a drone in your hand. It is sometimes necessary to do this due to the ground surface being unsuitable.

Landing on a dusty or sandy surface, for instance, is not recommended because the propellers create a dust cloud and some particles can enter the electric motors powering the propellers, which will harm them. Landing on surfaces where the propellers could contact vegetation or other obstacles is also not recommended, as that may damage the propellers.

Some prefer to grab the body of the drone once it is in contact with the hand, but I find this risks getting your fingers clipped by the propellers.

Still others recommend that, after grabbing the drone, you flip it upside down (which causes the drone's propellers to shut down automatically). This is also not advisable since it puts unnecessary torque on the propellers and motors.
