Awesome footage!

Question though you had a few blue spike through it where you far away or?

Im a new pilot so I'm interested.

Nice video, though it looks like lower res cache video, and not the video that would have been saved to the SD card while recording the flight.. ??

The flashes were a fault in the camera. I usually edit out the flashes but I had little footage to work with.

It was the HD video from the drone SD card. Had a camera fault.

Nice video. Trains are always a great subject to capture. I personally wasn't a fan of the music, but that's just me. Loved the video overall though. Great work!

I was driving along the road and saw the train.
Grabbed the drone and set up quickly on the side of the road. Hope to get better footage when I go back in a couple of months if it is running.
The music is just computer generated.

I'd be sending it back to get camera fixed

It was going to take 2 1/2 months to send it overseas and cost as much as a new Mini.
Managed to fix it myself, now seems to be going good.

Still in HD with a few colour flashes.

Nice shooting.

I liked the music, felt like one of those older promo videos. "Come check out our city. We have a steam train!" then some block letters would slide in from the left and right "Steamboat Springs!" and then handwriting would fill in "It's full STEAM ahead!"

Thank you for your comments.
Can't please everyone with music so I let the computer generate it.
Hope to go back later in the year and get it under full steam up the hill.
