Mini 2 Abandoned Building Flight Downtown Auckland, New Zealand

[HolidayNz]

Quick edit of a recent Mini 2 flight around the sadly abandoned Food alley international food court in Downtown Auckland city, New Zealand which closed in mid 2020 after 28 years of serving up a huge variety of dishes from around the world. It will missed by many locals but definitely not forgotten for being a big part of Auckland's culinary history.
Happy new year to everybody here on the forum

I am curious as to whether or not you lost GPS and or connection during this flight or these flights?

I was a bit worried when flying into the carpark area, but no issues and No loss of connection. Thanks for watching!

Nice video, those Mini 2's really are an awesome bit of kit - if they had a bit of obstacle avoidance and a bit more power they'd be Air 2's

How did you manage to get permission for the flight in downtown Auckland in, around and over a demo site of all places. I'm sure that took some organising. Nice video and awesome flying mate.

I loved it. A bit of history and quite a contrast to the surrounding buildings. I particularly like the end bit where you flew through towering buildings toward the water to give a great perspective. Nice!

If that was a "quick edit" for you, then Wow, Wow Wa-Wee-Wa (As Borat would say!) Beautifully smooth flying, great footage, Interesting subject, nice soundtrack. What's not to like?
