Oh this is just too much. Like hula dancing trees..............in unison. Very cool.

Thank you, Marty.
I posted the the last in my series below.
The trees are not dancing so well.... Sorry about that !

Friend of mine got a drone so we've been test flying it a little bit.

Nice drone, Corran.

There is so much controversy and concern about small drones invading personal and government property. Glad the police didn't make more of an issue.

How is the quality of the images it captures ?

Yeah and I'm not sure where the bar will be set with regards to flying drones. We discovered that I have a nice "helipad" in my yard where there's a storm drain and a straight shot up over the trees, but then where do you go? And who "owns" the airspace above your property? Anyway, too many political issues with this topic...

I haven't seen much of the footage yet (it is my friends toy, after all) but it seems to be decent. It's not as good as my GoPro4, which is of course not nearly as good as any DSLR, so, it's really not much to get excited about for us LF guys used to 20+ square inches of film!

B&H has a good Drone buying guide.

They also sell LF capable Drones.

If I recall correctly, LF/ULF was shot from balloon and blimp as far back as American Civil War for military purposes.

RF Jamming is illegal, but could be effective.

They are boring as Hell to watch fly. https://youtu.be/7PDxBZBBOJM But my friend Dan, has used it for making a dance/mucic video for a young lady. Dan is very popular!

In the wildfire on I-15 yesterday, the water airdrops were hampered by drones.
But in the end the problem is not with the drones but with some of the idiots that operate them.

Then watch this Russian and watch the whole way, because I thought he was faking the first 2 scenarios.

RF Jamming may be necessary.

The idiots are drones.

You can get it up there, but the actual picture taking will be the problem! I can't remember how the guy actually shot the picture with the 8x10 or whatever lifted with balloons. Really long string? Wasn't it a Hypergon? I can't find the website detailing the specifics.

BTW, didn't that Russian guy get murdered?

The first guy did use a string, but any timer could do and a radio has been possible for a long time.

Check out Chicago by Drone.

Nice, I'll check the video out. The one thing about this drone is the battery barely lasts 15 minutes so you can't go far. It's a lower-end model though.

It's the same as the one I fixed. They are getting cheaper fast.
