I have this one on the wall.

Wow   great work!

Now that's what I call a location of opportunity.  Love the turbines.  Very nicely done Matthias.  

kupoakupoa Posted at 9-26 01:29
Wow   great work!

thanks,   I made the frames from some reclaimed mahogany too.  

Great video thanks for sharing. I’m always nervous to try the active track

I especially enjoyed the last part at the terminal!

Thank you! active track in Air 2S is very good and safe if you use the follow function!

You're welcome.
Yeah, I get it.
PS, two of my shorts are around the 700 mark now.
Not real big, but quite ok, considering the normal view count on that channel.

Wow, that turbine has seen better days.  I'm thinking the cause was either lightning or the mechanical parts overheated and caught fire. Sad to see.

You're very welcome Matthias.    You also have a great week.

Wow that is really great! make some more of this shorts then

kupoakupoa Posted at 9-27 03:17

I'm not 100% sure where to go with those.
I find it hard to get good subjects for my style of video's (about music production, on that channel).
But I will try.

Thanks for sharing these, I especially like the last part of your video, nice effect!

Great Video! i guess the fire starts from a lightning strike?

That was my guess,   but then I would have thought they would have been grounded well.

I was guessing lightening too,  but google says -

Wind turbines catch fire because highly flammable materials such as hydraulic oil and plastics are in close proximity to machinery and electrical wires. These can ignite a fire if they overheat or are faulty. Lots of oxygen, in the form of high winds, can quickly fan a fire inside a turbine.

Ah i see: overheating! Thanks for the additional Infos

You're very welcome,  its good to learn something new everyday.

Ah, that all makes sense.

Yes it is.    Got to keep those brain cells active.

Lol.  Do one thing everyday that scares you….

DowntownRDB Posted at 9-28 02:14
Ah, that all makes sense.

I’m now wondering how common the problem is.

kupoakupoa Posted at 9-27 22:22
Thank you Captain!

I was just upgraded yesterday, thank you Captain!

Nice and interesting video. Would love to see more details about the turbines though. Perhaps you can ask the people working there and do a special about the turbines and closer details of them. Thanks.

Good idea but it´s a little bit tricky to film this Turbines and dont disturb people working with this at the same time..

OK thanks. I understand. It would have been interesting to see a documentary about how they are manufactured. Perhaps next project????

Sounds like a devious plan.

You know thats a quote from Eleanor Roosevelt.

Haven't seen much in the media about lightning strikes on turbines.  However, the media tends to focus on politics here mostly.  So lightning strike probably wouldn't even make a blip on their newsworthy item criteria.

Politics,   indeed,  I stream MSNBC most days (audio only) and its non stop.   But then wind turbines do cause cancer apparently.
