Absolute amazing takes.
Do you have a special license or permission for flying over streets and so close to buildings? Or isn't it a problem in San Francisco?
I guess here in Germany one would call the police immediately.

Thanks! Music choice was easy, one of my old time tunes while growing up. As for editing, I really didn't do much. All i did was splice videos and time it with the audio. Some white balance adjustments with saturation and contrast. That's pretty much it!

What all was involved with getting a Temp Filming Permit? And what does it do? Give you free reign?

Did you fly ATTI or GPS? If flying GPS, did you experience much interference from all the buildings?

Wasn't it windy on that day? I remember it being difficult to fly that day (But I'm in Pacifica right on the coast)

Both, I made sure GPS was locked. However, I did have to compensate for drift. Buildings, metal and wiring didn't have too much of an interference with video, but GPS was hard to lock onto at times.

It wasn't bad in the morning. I did most of my filming at 6:50am-8am.

Thanks for the support!! I'm just doing these videos for fun and it's greatly appreciated that people like the videos. I'm hoping maybe to be able to have this as a part time hobby that can generate some income as well.

Makes sense! It's a great video! And yes, it must have taken some definite focus flying it at that distance.

This footage is great, as a local it is always nice to see the beauty of the bay. Though where were you able to get the filming permit for flying in the city?

Great job and thank you for sharing your hard work. I have been to many of those locations. It is really fun to see them from the air. With SFO so close by the airspace is controlled all the way to the ground. But it looks like you were able to get it done.

Keep up the good work.
