Very nicely done. Great choice of music. I guess that was you at the end doing the hand catch?

Great video, I don't remember Sydney looking that good in 1970 when I visited for a week.

Great Video, I love it. I see you were filming early morning 31st of December.

You flew over my Motor Yacht. (Bottom Middle at 2:35)

I was anchored in Farm Cove for the New Years Eve Fireworks.

Must have been early in the morning as not many people about.

Cheers Brian.

@momochi - no that is my wife lol
@gerry1124 - thanks a lot!!!
@bjr981s - Nice Brian, loved everything about the trip. What a privilege to be able to see the fireworks from Farm Cove. cheers
@talk2t_c thanks a lot. I did note encounter any problems but to be honest I did not ask for permission. Im fairly new to the drone thing so I thought I could fly it every where. Later I found out that in Australia there are already rules in place and it appears that I broke a couple of them.

thanks for replying,

awesome video!
I am a sydney local, and yes, we already have rules in place for drone operations,   no more than 500ft high, and more than 30 mtrs from people. or groups of people,  and no closer than 5 miles from an airport.  which you might be close to in those videos, as Sydney airport is almost Literally 5 Nm from the City.   and also, if you want to make money from your drone footage or use, you need a special CASA issued licence..

apart from that, do as you please.   

Next to the coastal cliffs is a light aircraft flight path, lowest level is 500ft.    so if your filming off the coast,  NEVER go above 500ft.    apart from that,  i cant see any huge rule issues.  except the 30mtrs from people bit...  but hey,     the results are a fantastic video highlighting the best parts of the city.

good work.

120 Metres so 394 Feet But thats within City limits. Outside of that it is OK to go above.
