Inspire 1 flight over the water, near the cruiseships, over boats in port and occasionally over land.

Some images (extracted from video)


I'll upload a low flight video

I got my P3P just before Christmas, and it is my first drone.
I have a lake house about an hour south of Dallas, and I have created a couple of little cips. I ventured out over the water pretty quickly, I think already on my 3rd or 4th flight. It was nervous at first, but now I feel perfectly comfortable with it.





The second one is a bit slow, especially in the beginning. That one is shot using waypoints only.
The first one is free-hand, I was practicing and it turned out okay.

Hi all was lucky enough to shoot some Wakeboarding last week. Just edited in my iPad need to upgrade my pc so can use adobe premiere .Phantom 3 pro

Wavis,

Open and frozen water:

Great job with the season changes. Did you create waypoints and just plugged in those previous waypoints to get so close to the original route?

Nice, love the reflections of the clouds in the water.

Thanks, Rodger! Yes, I love the refections, some of the sky and about 3/4 of the way through, the fall colors along the Eastern Shore.

Flor,

Yes, it's a preplanned, Litchi Ground Station run. I wish I had included many POI's and camera functions along the run. When the first run was created, saved and run many of the newer functions were not available.

I also pucker up when flying over water, but it is fun to do...one of my many flights over water

Great days at the Westcoast of the Algarve in Portugal. Flying over the Ocean was a bit scary, but great fun and fortunately without any landing at the sea :-)

Usually always over the sea...

Some fun at the Nicasio Reservoir. Going back today to see how much the water has risen.

I used to be afraid of flying over water.  This clip was the first time I flew over cliffs to the ocean.  Took me several approaches where I would chicken out and break off early before I finally did it.  Since then I've never been afraid, just go for it!   At 1:20 I'm the little dot on the cliff watching my baby get further and further away.  Had no problems getting him home.

I really love your stuff. Simply beautiful! You are a true artist! I'm just a pilot with a camera.

Thanks for that Jerry, much appreciated.  I'm the opposite, I'm a camera guy with a quad!  Have loved learning to fly, so cool!

Great Wallace! Where was it filmed?

Near the town of North High Shoals, Georgia.  That is east of Atlanta, and just about to Athens, GA if that helps.

Don't know if this counts or not....San Jacinto Monument near Channel View in Houston, TX

The problem is not afraid of flying above water....the biggest challenge for me is to have the guts to fly low enough and not be bothered by the people on the ground noticing and start to react to it....

Secondly, is there a way to make yaw-yaw function as smooth as possible? the image looks jerky and not as smooth as I would liked when doing a rotation...

Our bird I1 on the mexican pacific!

over water and ice :p

Flight off the coast of Hallandale Beach about 200ft off the shoreline

Not so much afraid of water....just afraid of what can go wrong and then watch my p3 float or sink.  ...

Nice shot, no hope for ever getting her back if she went in!

Bryan,

Nope, no sound recording on the Phantom 3 series.

Nice. I guess you live some where in the area. It would be nice if you would like to meet up and go fly sometime?
