    3 Mount Wilson California

    Great stuff. I visited your YT channel and see that you cover the San Gabes well. I look forward to future videos esp. anything you learn regarding the Crest Hwy. Keep up the good work!

    What are the laws that regulate flying around jails?

    I noticed that my AIRMAP app as well as the link provided earlier in this thread (B4UFly) showed nothing when I focused on a local correctional facility however when I flew in the vicinity I had some truly strange connectivity issues with my drone (Mini 2) and at close range. Perhaps similar to...

    Mini 2 Drone Footage for a Cause - River Restoration

    Hi, I do not have sufficient awareness of the hurdles (or lack thereof) in other states. Still, I guess one could say that this is a start. Derelict dams are not just a California thing so, heck, maybe, for all we know, CA is in the lead? There must be a myriad of factors too; even simple ones...

    Mini 2 Drone Footage for a Cause - River Restoration

    California, perhaps like many parts of the world, is full of dammed rivers. As generally is the case, this can also do damage to ecosystems and prevent certain creatures from flourishing. Some of the biggest victims are fish that need to migrate. It gets even sillier when the dams have 100% lost...

    And yet another benefit of the Mini 2-

    I enjoy using my Mini 2 for somewhat similar purposes. I have a few locations where I fish that require hiking over rough terrain. The fish move around a lot within the water system so it's not always certain that they will be there. Sending the drone even a short distance has saved me a lot of...

    2 Pro Vouliagmeni Lake, Fish Spa Garra Rufa

    Thanks for shooting this Tasos and posting it. I have family on my mother's side from Greece and I once spent part of a summer in Voulagmieni.

    Air 2 More Dam Flights

    Very cool stuff. I am familiar with Morris. Interesting that flying around the dam wasn't "a bust". Post 9-11, activity near many dams became harder.

    2 Pro Best Beach Destination in the World

    I have visited Portugal a few times but not its beaches. I was, however, able to visit some very touristy spots in Spain BUT during the off season and it was a novel way to enjoy a place that would otherwise be packed with vacationers. Add Covid to the equation and one probably has a lot of...

    Mini Night video at the beach

    I have yet to try flying my Mini at night but do often find myself near some great lights. This is encouraging. Thanks!

    Mt. St. Helens lost in Wildfire Smoke - Flying Drone in the Apocalypse

    Thanks for posting. Spot-on choice of music as well. I was in the Mt. St. Helens area in '80 very shortly before the eruption (fishing trip with my father). What was interesting was that some of the rivers were running suspiciously muddy due to agitated glacier/snowfield activity on the...

    West coast fires.

    I was recently in Fresno and Oakhurst and my lungs still hurt. I agree. A huge amount of gratitude goes to the fire fighters and first responders. They are pulling crazy long shifts under brutal conditions.

    Mini Southwest US "Ghost House"

    Thank you for the comments. Lurch003, your comments are great. It is almost as though you were there with me. For example, I was too nervous to fly into the truck. This is, of course, a bit ironic since I flew into the abandoned structure. By the time I did the house's doorway, my wife was there...
