Cruising through the complex web of the temperate rainforest with the DJI FPV drone, one discovers just how grand our wild forests truly are. Layer upon layer of green and growing things living together in perfect harmony, which every level from canopy to the mossy carpet of the forest floor being it's own secret world thriving with an ecosystem that twines together in a sprawling interconnected web of life. Join me as I embark on this journey of discovering through the woodland realm.

I was surprised by how easily I was able to fly at speed through the thick and complex structure of the forest. I attribute this partly to the drone's high resolution digital video feed, and partly due to the excellent obstacle avoidence system in Normal mode. It genuinely saved me from some bad crashes, and I like the slow motion effect it gives to close encounters with trees. I decided to publish this video today in honor of International Day of Forests.

Hello there Illuminations. Thank you for reaching out and for posting this stunning video you have filmed and created. Great work and two thumbs up.

That was fantastic!  I especially loved the part where you were following the stream.

Thats some skilled flying there.  

Wow, that is different (and nice)!

Wow, great flying.    That was some beautiful scenery.  Loved the background music.

That was really good. Really impressed how far through the forest you can go without loosing signal.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! That was my favorite part of the video too - I'm planning on filming a whole video this week just featuring flying above creeks and streams in the forest.

Me too! The signal was crystal clear for 99.9% of the flight - really impressive!

You’re very welcome.  You need to tell us where to get balls of steel

You're very welcome.    Mixing the music and sound effects worked out quite well.

Very nice tree cruising - the wide field of view of the FPV really helps to navigate ahead of the machine to look for your next path. Thanks for sharing!

Curses under breath because I am just going to have to buy one of these.

Amazing video, thank you for posting!
