A hike revisiting a couple of spots I've flown before: A bando - unfortunately with a tight fence and no confidence yet.
A bit better at a reservoir.
Next some strategically placed half dives at a quarry so not to lose signal.
A flip and a roll and a bit of low flying and finally some gaps and a bit of backwards drifting round up this trip.

Drones: Rekon 5 (GoPro 6), GepRC Cinelog 25 HD (GoPro 8)

Yes, put true fpv pilots say: Don't be afraid to crash - otherwise you won't learn.
But I'm pretty happy not to crash...

Thank you.
Yes, I have a Hero 10 on the DJI drone (formerly a Hero 6). Works well. Sometimes you get jitter but mostly the footage is good and with ReelSteady MUCH better than the built-in camera.

Yes I agree, Gopro looks a bit better, and with Reelsteady its in a different league really. I wonder do you notice the extra weight when flying? And does it affect the battery/flight time much?

I can't say I noticed. There has to be a difference but since I don't fly freestyle (not really at all and definitely not with this drone) the weight doesn't seem to matter.
With battery there should be a difference but the 20 minutes advertised flight time are a joke anyway. I never get close to even 10 flying in M mode. So I wouldn't call it a problem.
As I would call the camera a problem the pros of adding a GoPro much outweigh the cons for me.

Damn it Depp I still panic when I get less than 10 metres down and here you are zipping in, out and round about. One of these days looks like I'll have to give FPV a go.
