NO SOUND.


Trying to learn to fly backwards.
A bit scary actually...

Some of those are a bit close to tree / cables and postboxes !!

You are into what is termed orientation in the general model world. The action of reversed controls while others stay same. It takes a lot of practice in model flying and is usually learnt by doing fig 8's flights out in front .. this makes the 'mind' have to swap control action and get fingers to work right direction, while still developing general ability.

The 'drone' of course has an advantage of being able to stop and hover .. but you still have that change of control orientation to master.

Nice shot !

That can make for a nice effect!

It's a lot safer if you fly forwards, then reverse the video in the editor ;)

For sure, but then, whats the trill ?

Thrill might be not crashing your expensive drone into a tree ;)

Reckon with the powerlines and trees forwards would be enough of a problem.
At least some of the neighbours won't complain if it suddenly goes down.

One advantage of flying backwards is no chance of getting your props on the photo.  Ofcourse this will be a problem solved only if you are flying fast.

It just look incredible strange when the birds are flying backwards too, not to forget vehicles etc on ground.
Often when seeing this, the subconsciousness mind just know from unnoticeable details that something is wrong, same goes for photos rotated/flipped or mirrored, even the motive shouldn't matter you just sense that something is odd.
