Coming to the last few video's from our recent Highland trip, though there are enough left to see us into the first few days of June, and perhaps an opportunity to do some longer mixes as showreels too.

Todays footage is from our penultimate day, slightly further north at Loch Shin...

Yup, friends who have recently moved into the area did the walk a few weeks ago, and offered to do it again with us, was nice... Wish I had flown in Ferry woods and gotten some footage of the carved animals, they were spectacular...

Put them on the "ToDo" list for the next trip.  The NC500?

NC500 is being saved for a celebratory trip once the mortgage is paid off in a year or two's time... Next trip is in 4 weeks, and is up to Tongue to stay with friends for one night, then a day with them before getting the ferry to Orkney for a week of Drone flying over the Neolithic / Viking / WW2 relics and trying to get something stunning... Potentially we could call into Ferrywood, but will have to look at timing..

At this rate you'll have enough material to keep you posting until Christmas
Enjoy the trip.

Thanks, we will, although perhaps the footge will be gone in a month or so... May only post something every couple of days to save spamming everyone.. Have to say I can see the improvements in my flying form when I first started, a lot of which is thanks to the encouragement on here, it is very much appreciated

It's always a pleasure.

You're very welcome.  Keep up the great work.  Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.  I'm envious of your upcoming trip to the Orkneys.  I really enjoyed the week I spent there.  Unfortunately, that was before drones so didn't get any aerial footage.

Well keep all your batteries charged and ready to go once you arrive onboard the Orkneys.  Should be some fantastic views to capture.

Lol, yeah, been to a lot of it before, but not with the drone, so a good excuse to go back again, and again when I get a larger drone ;)
