Hey everyone,
I wanted to share a little behind-the-scenes moment from my recent shoot at La Motte Passage on the New York / Vermont / Canada border. While flying my DJI Mini 4 Pro in Sport Mode (with obstacle sensors off), I got a bit too close to a tree and almost ended the flight early with a crash
.
Luckily, I managed to save it - and the footage turned out incredible. I put together a full cinematic aerial edit of the area, paired with an original Suno soundtrack created just for this video.
Here’s the finished cinematic video:
And for those curious, here’s the near-crash clip I mentioned:
Location: La Motte Passage - Lake Champlain Region
Drone: DJI Mini 4 Pro
At the end of the day, we pilots are always taking some level of risk every time we fly - pushing limits and trusting our skills - all in the pursuit of capturing that one breathtaking shot. This one definitely gave me a reminder of that.
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Fly safe.
