I was reading a thread the other week on a guy who had tried to 'push his drone to its limits' to try and get some decent video.  The flight wasn't that great and he got some criticism for how he flew.
So I had some fun making a video with my Phantom 3 Standard and my Mavic on how to position yourself and line up flight paths to keep things in precise control when shooting a close or fast action bit of video... Sometimes you're after a particular shot or angle that can make your flight that little bit risky when that doesn't need to be the case.
Hope you have a laugh watching:

Great tips and of course one of the great keys is lots of practice so control becomes natural.

Great tips! Curious as to what editing software you use for your videos?

Enjoyed that video thanks for the tips.   I try to never be close to anything but was good to learn from your tips.

Hi fella
I started off trying out all the usual editing softwares but ultimately went for PowerDirector 15.  Simple, intuitive, but truckloads of features.  
They're doing a summer offer of Powerdirector 15 + ColorDirector for free for £54 in total, which isn't bad as ColorDirector lets you adjust your video colour and settings etc and is normally £50-99 extra.
That particular offer is here; hopefully this link will redirect you to the US version of this offer....
