Merging drones

RTKD · Jan 19, 2019

More and more I find myself using the Mavic for intros and slow shots, and then my FPV rig for the rest.

Love your stuff. Cool shot at 1:50.

Nice video. Some tricky and risky flying in there! Although for me, anything closer than 30 feet to a tree is risky!

Haha.

At the end of your video, is that footage actually recorded flying backwards, or is the footage played in reverse?

Nice flight skills!

That's a reverse shot that begins with me popping off the ground and tearing up some bark as I bounce off a tree. At 120 fps you can really see the sawdust lol

Thanks for watching

You’re a better man than I am Gunga Din. Wouldn’t want to even attempt some of what you do apparently effortlessly

I have a fast track to learn... I have a micro drone that uses the exact same controller and goggles I use for the full size camera rig.

-Emax Tinyhawk ($100)

I can throw it at a wall and it'll bounce off. Crash this little guy around the house for a few weeks and you'll be ready to step up to a larger bird. That said, I crash a lot, almost every day. You'll only enjoy this kind of flying if you enjoy fixing your own rig.

Here's some DVR from that tinyhawk just for fun. It's really the best way to learn
