Just needs a lot of Tabasco Sauce!

Congratulations and welcome! This is a great forum due in no small part to the moderators as well as the participants.

One thing I liked was the flyover of the naval ship, which had to be a museum. So, some research and yes - it's the retired battleship Averos, described as the 'Crown Jewel of the Greek Navy." I find it interesting how drone footage in other parts of the world can reveal things you'd never have...

Were you using an ND filter? Beautiful country!

I use the Thors Drone World Baldur for my MA2 and it is absolutely great at holding my iPad. What I like is the 1/4"-20 threaded receiver on the bottom that allows me to mount it on a tripod. Alternatively, they provided a lanyard which is also good. Then I got cheap and fabricated my own hood...

I built my own out of black foam core, black Gorilla Tape, and a little velcro. Probably got 6 bucks total in it and it works fine with my iPad. (Mounted on a Thor's Droneworld Baldur for my MA2.)

Definitely #2. Wanted to expand our video capabilities. I enjoy flying, but the purpose of the flight is to get the footage.

Sure looks like it.

OK, I'll buckle down and get my 107 this year. Why would I not?

I came looking for this thread (Hurrah for search!) because the same thing happened to me for the first time yesterday. Unfortunately, I was not in an area where I could log in. No cell access. At home today I can log in, enter password and yep, problem solved. So here's my question. Yesterday...

70. Huh. Bunch'a young whippernappers, ain't ye?

Just off hand, I'd toss this in the "Bad Ideas" basket.

Welcome to the forum from Green Valley, Az. Be sure to check out the Arizona section of the regional forums.

THAT was a terrific use of drone footage to help tell a story!! And the entire film was a high-quality production. Very, very well done -- thanks for sharing! (I miss climbing, sigh.)

Yep. Confirmed! OK, couldn't resist. Not a fan of those transitions at all. Uneven on the pan, and the backwards birds, well... Agree with Dale D and Prop Wash on 'fix it in post'. Still, there is some nice stuff in there! Looking to the west at Mt. Rainier was nice - brought back memories.
