Thought that was a cool video, looks like the pilot in the passenger seat had to have a very steady fingers on the sticks.

Yes, good flying, and made me wonder where are they going, what cargo is in the truck...

I was driving and my Son in law controlled the drone. Lucky he didn’t hit any of those bushes. As far as where we were going, coming from my Landers cabin to a local landmark called Giant Rock. Very interesting history. You should check it out instead of suspecting me of “questionable cargo”. I’m a member of a SoCal military vehicle club. We acquire and restore surplus military vehicles. I was driving an Austrian built troop carrier called a Pinzgauer. A very capable off road vehicle.

I used to go there as a kid “Giant Rock” with my father riding our dirt bikes back in the late 60’s / early 70’s. I haven’t been there in decades since I took my kids there on our dirt bikes. Interesting place for sure and loved the desert.

That’s really cool that you have a Pinzgauer and get to use it in the SoCal desert. I almost bought a M4 Sherman to bring home and restore when living in SoCal, but the deal fell apart. Dad was also a M4 tank driver 7AD, 31TB, CoB, which fueled my interest since childhood. Thanks for sharing that video!
