Two different days, three drones: The Stierbergteich ("bull mountain pond") in glorious light, the Carlsbergtower and the second dive that I'm pretty happy with, a reservoir where I debated hitting the small gaps but wasn't sure about the signal. A bit of fields and cows and finally another place I always wanted to take a look at. And lo and behold: A stork standing in its lair. The video is zoomed in 200 % - it looks much closer than I was. Didn't get any reaction from it anyway.
The next generation is interested in flying - DJI Mini 2 so far, fpv in sim only. So maybe one day we'll be spotting each other!

Drones: DJI FPV drone (GoPro 10), Rekon 5 (GoPro 6), DJI Mini 2, additional footage DJI Osmo Pocket.

Bold flight manoeuvres, especially the dives near the cell tower! And it is a joy to see the beautiful Harz landscape!

Thanks a lot.
Yes, sometimes you don't have to travel far to find beauty.

Epic footage Depp.    I really enjoyed your diving on the tower.

Thanks! Yes, I finally got the courage and the hang of it to get pretty close.

You're very welcome.    Well, you definitely mustered up the courage for these awesome dives.  

I keep on saying you have mad flying skills.  

Great video Depp, when I finally get the Dji Fpv I definitely want to do a dive with it, of course in time while I get the proper experience flying it.

Hello there Depp. Good day and thank you for posting this cool aerial video that you have filmed. Nice flying and have a nice day. .

Thank you.
Then I hope you get it quickly and have lots of fun with it. I very strongly suggest to get a simulator as well - I don't like the one DJI provides: Strange physics and using it with the goggles made me dizzy and almost sick.
If you ever want to try the manual mode of the drone I'd use a sim first and continue to use it. I use Velocidrone (< 20 bucks) and it works very well with the DJI controller...

Thank you, Stephen.

Nice flying Depp.   Is the tower a fire lookout tower|?

starts off sedately then whoopee we're off and running. Or maybe that's flying. As usual a great job.

Thanks, DA.
No, the railway company built it as a wireless transmission tower and for some reason added a lockout for visitors.

Just like real live: drive, walk and finally: fly!

Will definitely keep this in mind Depp and thanks for telling me about that flight simulator.

That was good of the railway company.    As long as they don't charge you to climb it.

No, it's free. Not much traffic there.
