Probable cause
The remote pilot-in-command’s (RPIC’s) failure to locate the drone show center position over the physical location of the sUA, which resulted in multiple sUA colliding during the initial lift and subsequent loss of control. Contributing to the accident was the RPIC’s inappropriate geofence that was contrary to company procedures and an incorrect show heading which moved the show closer to the spectators. Also contributing to the accident was the operator’s lack of show oversight which allowed for multiple individual errors to go undetected before show start.
