You are to be commended for even admitting to this, so to speak. I bet there are many in, for example, Yosemite, where it is not even permitted to fly a drone. Keep us posted! ADDENDUM/EDIT: And, to your point, spare batteries from one of my lost drones did serve useful for another I wound up...

I agree. I live just south of the Palisades fire and watched the tankers and scoopers at work. Even if they can manage flying in high winds, you still see them getting "pushed around". It must take serious nerves - esp. at low altitude. The expanse of charred city is beyond comprehension. The...

Documenting the line of ships is interesting. One doesn't think about this (especially us who live far away) but I can only imagine what a traffic jam it must be. Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic document and beautifully shot.

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!

A magical part of California!

Love this especially the rock and roll scene at the end! :)

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...

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...

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...

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...

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.

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.

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...

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