Im having to check weather every morning because it changes so much. But mostly rain unfortunately. I will have to come back here for sure since most of the views are hidden the fog. I wish u luck. I leave on 25th lol

You needed a permit at jokulsarlon because your drone is heavier than 5kg? Im goin there friday i just want to nake sure I thought less than 5kg is good

Everytime i finished on 1 location filming , i swapp sd cards. And meanwhile i am driving to next location, or evening in hotel, incopy it to laptop and/or mobile drive. Just in case there is an accident , then at least i have the previous filmed footage. Maybe a tip for next time. . You couldnt retrieve the spark?

Nah man. Cliff was too high and river on between me and the drone. I can see it thats the painful part. I always fly line of sight. Im just glad no one waa close to the crash. I just lost 75 percent of my drone shots plus the chances of getting more. I got 3 more days here i was saving the best sights for last

Ill upload a short video when i get back to the hotel. idk man mavic 2 might come out and idk this instance really scared me. i was literally 100 feet away from it and it went nuts. i was using rc too i used to use the cellphone only and it was fine
