Hello from Iceland driving the ring road

[foxagntmulder]

Hello from Iceland!!! What an amazing country!!! We've been here for 7 days and the family are having an epic Iceland trip. Its our first here and we are so amaze with the landscape of the country. There are several waterfalls and parks that you can't fly your drone but you can fly anywhere where there's not a lot people. Mostly touristy places drone are prohibited unless you have a permit. Its too bad we're not driving 4x4 that we can't go to other amazing location. We're driving counter clockwise and our next stop is Snaefellsnes area. I did my first drone footage outside the no fly zone. I want to share and just don't know how.

Hi Foxagntmulder, glad you’re having a nice time in Iceland ?

How to add photos/videos on your post

When you start a new post,
bottom left you get the “attach files” button. Press that.


Then you’ll see this


Scroll to the photo you want to share, then you’ll see this page. You can upload a thumbnail or full image


Then just press “post reply”
It would be so much easier if you were using an iPad/tablet while searching for your photos.

With videos you can only do this via YT/Vimeo. Copy the link and paste it on your post.

looking forward to seeing some of Iceland ??

Welcome to the forum from the Arizona desert! Enjoy.

Most folks upload to YouTube. Then they post the link it provides. That gets the appearance you usually see if the video.

See the how-to from @Porky above

This is just my second vacation trip with my drone. Still learning how to fly, there’s a lot to practice but the footage came out ok. Iceland Driving Ring Road

Very interesting and exceptional for your first try! Look forward to more.

 

[foxagntmulder]

Thanks. I cut off the part where the video stutter for a quick second. It looks like the gimbal moved up and down for a quick half second. I’m trying to search the forum for other drone pilots who has the same problem with their footage. Its very annoying. Have anyone experienced the same thing?

 

[MAvic_South_Oz]

Enjoy the trip Thomas.
You’ve had plenty of inspirational posts from @MPone recently, and looks like others too filming there.

Just edit around it. I had that issue when the temps were low in Alaska.

I want to see more! That was epic so far.

Welcome.
I was in Iceland in Feb. It's a very nice country. I took a 6-day tour that took me around Iceland. I thought I might have trouble flying my drone, if I was taken to the main touristy spots that prohibits drones and lots of people. There were a few of those. But for the most part, there wasn't a lot of people and the tour guide was really accommodating. I shared photos and video with the tour group, so they were happy that they got a different perspective. At night, I took my MP up and manged to get plenty of shots of the northern lights.
One thing I forgot to do, "light painting" with the northern lights in the background. You should try that.

 

[foxagntmulder]

Awesome! Appreciate the help! ??

 

[Thomas B]

@RayOZ could you post some Northern Lights pics somewhere, not here please. I’d love to see how that came out!

 

[RayOZ]

Here's some pics of the northern lights I took.

I won't leave it up for too long.
There are 2 pics that are similar, one has a greenish hue and another bluish. Anyone knows why?
