Hey Guys,

Got the opportunity to do some drone coverage for the first time, I have flown RC Helicopters so figured i would give a drone a shot. Was harder than I expected since you have to control flight and video at the same time! Anyway here are 2 small clips from my experiment lol.





BTW: Videos were edited on my phone and only used the audio that was available with the app so ignore the music if you dont like it lol.

I was going to question the music :lol:

It's amazing how smooth it is! :)

Next, I want to see a high speed close proximity pass at wing mirror height, with a barrel roll a couple of feet before the pass ;)

Damn that's really good footage. Really shows off your Lude.

How hard is it to pilot the drone & simultaneously operate the cam, or is it a fixed cam?

Thanks!

The camera is fixed only pivots up and down with one finger, the side to side turns you are actually turning the whole drone itself and not just the camera.

With this video i have a total of about 1.5 hours of flight time experience and I am still learning how to fly it better and learning all the different features.

Flying the drone is not easy but it is not hard either just takes a lot of practice.

Haha I took more pictures this weekend which i'll post later today and its a Facebook group called Prelude Parts Sweepstakes, its mostly in the US/Canada but international shipping can be arranged :).

Selling rare parts for high dollar is difficult and takes long so doing raffles for the same item at like 20-30 USD per slot gives everyone a chance to have the item, affordable, and the seller gets his/her asking price.
