DJI Matrice 300 RTK UAV: Sustained minor damage at Lutterworth, Harborough, Leicestershire when collided on approach with the UAV operator
The remote pilot was conducting a low-level survey. Once the survey was complete, the remote pilot positioned himself close to the landing point. As the UA approached, the pilot looked at the controller and camera view from the UA, and unconsciously moved into the path of the aircraft. The UA struck him before falling to the ground, causing minor damage to the UA. The pilot, who was wearing body armour, was uninjured.
