I did a thing..

[RavenTBK]

Never seen one in real life before, so I had to pull over and investigate.

This particular pinwheel was broke down about a mile from my launch point, but all the others closer in were moving at a good clip. Winds were heavy enough I had to add some sport mode correction to hold position on the three wheels I peeked at. Took a couple stills, shot a little video, tried not to get hit by blades. It was a productive stop.

As long as you have the liability insurance to cover the $3m structure, I'm sure they won't mind

If this $3M structure can be taken down or significantly damaged by a Mavic then it deserves it...

Very cool, Every time I've driven by a field of them I've never been able to stop. Nice shot!

Here's the first half of the video...unedited straight from the cache. I'm fairly happy overall. Can't wait to dig into the 4k and cut it up.

Pretty much. Haha. Yeah I found this Mavic in the back, and uhh, checked up on the QC.

Had to show my guy about some 2 lane US/state roads rather than the interstate. We're 7hrs and change ahead of schedule. [emoji597][emoji100]

Did you notice the blades started to turn? Freaked me the hell out. My plan was to drop a little altitude and go under, but they turned a bit in the gusts and I ended up going over.

They're not officially called pinwheels...I do, because they functionally are just that.
