Mini 3 Epic Reveal - Conwy Castle 4K

[AlbionDrones]

A couple of days off and some good weather allowed us the chance to have a day out to Wales, with a disused quarry and Conwy Castle in our sights for some drone flying.

We arrived fairly early, and managed to snag a free car parking space near the Old Toll bridge, which gave me the position for an epic reveal of the castle, flying along the walkway, through the archway and up between the chains to reveal the Castle, which was relatively simple to do.

The MINI3 Pro was used exclusively for this video, as it weighs under 250 g, making it legal to fly closer to and over people.

Editing took a little time to get right, the first edit was a little too relaxed, but the second, more punchy version worked a treat, a little sfx from Osmo Pocket 3 footage captured in the castle completes the job!

Happy with this one, what do you think?

You may have been limited but flights over the castle would add another interesting viewpoint

Thanks hon, yeah, there is a request from Cadw not to overfly at Conwy, they acknowledge they cannot enforce as it is not an FRZ, but I ws at pains to remain within their online request...

Nice footage !

You've been lucky to be allowed to fly this location (city, traffic, people, ...)

No FRZ, and sub 250g drone allows me to fly over uninvolved people and in close as I like in the UK, but I did make sure to limit my flight in terms of getting close to people and traffic... Most of it was over water or unoccupied land.
