When not flying DJI (or similar) you constantly have to discharge batteries that you charged but didn't use. This time I found a spotter and had time and nice weather so we took a walk to the field and the two batteries were at storage voltage quick enough. A tractor, some gaps and training to land the bird.
To fly the Rekon 5 (DJI digital fpv system) is a real joy - and having Reelsteady to iron out any bumps is awesome.

Nice. Orbiting the tractor on the fly looked really stylish.

Thank you. I was thinking to try to capture tractors and stuff working the fields but I didn't put in much effort to find them and had no random luck - until that day.

Thank you. It's a joy flying a well balanced fpv quad.

Very cool footage Depp.    What a great way to discharge the batteries  

Loved how you squeezed in a loop in the footage.  By the way, very nice flying.  Hope you have a great weekend.

Yes, but I don't really work towards it as I don't think loops make for the "cinematic" footage that I aim for...

Thank you, Downtown. Wish I didn't need a spotter...
Not much into looping and stuff but I guessed I'd put in one or two.

It's my pleasure Depp.  

I'm sure finding a spotter is not always easy to do or convenient but I guess for safety it is a must.
