Spotted this balloon so pulled over and grabbed the mavic, quick flight and landed on the car roof!  (I was sat in the car flying!)

Edited on the ipad pro 12" with LumaFusion

The first time I took my Mavic out to the country, I was launching and landing it on the hood of my SUV. It was a nice, clean landing spot. But then I started getting compass calibration issues, so I don't do that anymore.

I agree with folks on the colouring, doesn't look natural.  Enjoyed the landing.. I also recognise your friend from a previous video!!

I cleaned it the next day after seeing the video lol!!! And I wouldn't want to go near the balloon from fear of making a rip in it if the mavic had a brain fade!!
