Air 2 A New Hampshire Stream in Autumn.

I'm jumping on the "river cruising" bandwagon with my own entry from the Cold Brook in Tamworth, New Hampshire. a few seconds of this appeared in my other foliage video, but this is the whole flight. Enjoy!

Well done, I thought a tree branch, or two, was going to reach out and get you

Excellent flying and beautiful video - thanks for sharing

You're a better man than I, Gunga Din!
You flew so close to the water and so close to those hanging un-leaved branches. Flying under a bridge over water takes a particular kind of guts or confidence in your skill. I don't think I would have the courage to fly that. Obviously with all the twists and turns I don't think you could have possibly had eyes on the drone once the whole flight unless you had some crazy good position. The flight was very smooth while contiuous. I liked the music for it as well.

So a few questions if you'll indulge me...

Did you use a RCN1 controller or one of the smart controller? If RCN1, what were you using for your viewing device? If Smart controller, which one?
I have to believe you had to be flying in Cine mode. So could you please share your speed/smoothness/EXP setttings?
What was the music you used and where did you find it? It was different and cool. Reminded me of geese, but played with musical instruments.

Honestly, I still do, too when I watch it, lol. Thanks!

Thank you! that was indeed a stressful flight in the moment, but I'm glad I tried it.

I was using the RCN1 with a Ulefone Armor 7E, which has a relatively large screen for a phone.

Yes, I was flying in Cinesmooth mode for that one. Yaw rotation I had set a t 30 degrees, and smoothness was set at 21. I don't recall ever adjusting those, so it's possible those are default settings.

Exposure settings are not recorded, and I always adjust them on the fly, but I'm goin to guess the ISO was around 400-800, and Exposure time was 1/60. I always record in 4k60. I'm pretty sure I took my ND filter off for this shot, too.

The music is "A Fool's Theme" by Brian Bolger. I found it on Youtube's audio library, which is where I find most f my music.

Thanks for watching, and glad you liked it!

The flying was quite smoooth considering it was that slow with a RCN1. There was one big rock that I thought you were going to go around but you sort of went over it and I was certain the A2s was going to hit it. But it went over it clean, mercifully not where the peak was.

I was thinking that perhaps the ripple texture in the water helped the downward sensors. It always scares me to fly so close to the water. I presume that most of the flight your visual was strictly on your phone. I have to get better at knowing where my drone is in space based on the screen. Perhaps I should drag out my Mini 2 which already has a crack in the hull and practice flying through stuff... I guess you've inspired me.

Thanks for the reply..
