I don't know who the pilot was who recorded and pieced this video together, but I loved watching it. ;-)



Really enjoyable few minutes. Awesome job, of sharing the joy, we all had, in our youth, on the neighborhood frozen pond.

Yeah, that's for sure.

Perhaps it could cause a "swell" headache though?! Haha

What a cool video RHP (OK I will now go and take my meds). Serious bit of ice there though & good coverage by air.

Great smooth footage. It's amazing how well the copter performs in cold temps. Btw, just an observation but that lake didn't appear to be that frozen - yikes !

Well its not quite the neigbours pond, but its some nice human interest and a good smooth piece of flying. Do you think the guy has external antenne for his car so he can sit in warm comfort and make these films?

Very smooth, great piloting skill.

Yes, the birds found enough open water to frolic and swim...

Yes, more like a small lake, for the towns children to enjoy their freedom...

It brings back many fond memories, from my own winters of childhood.
When you are in your youth, all seasons bring huge adventures.

Waiting for our river to freeze.  I'm too old to put the goalie pads on anymore, maybe I'll fly instead of skate this year.

Yes, perhaps it's now time for many of us, to view the winter games, from a proud parents perspective. ;-


Or happy drone pilot. Haha)

As you are a RedHotPoker, I advise you to stay clear of ice.  You would melt through and that would be that.  You would not be covered under warranty and replacing you would be difficult.

Yes, it would make a hole in the ice for sure.

Ah, but perfect for ice fishing. Hahaha

But yes, when the frost covered the trees, it's a pretty wonderful looking sight. ;-)

It's not surprising, that this particular video, struck a mellow cord with so many here.

It truly is a delight... I was brought back to my own youth through its demonstration of this simple winter fun.

Hi RHP, down in my part of the world It rarely gets over 40 degrees C during the height of summer that's why I chose to move here  over 8 years ago, the only downer at this time of the year are the mongrel flies, they can drive you nuts ha ha

+40*C. No, I have never.... ;-)
It might get below zero here lots yeah, but we have no insects or bugs during winter.
All mosquitos are dormant. Flies don't live in frozen manure. So it's great.

Yes. Doesn't watching this make you want to go lace up a pair of skates, and make a few laps around the frozen lake or river in your location!
