So, long story short, I needed some sweeping inventory shots in our warehouse for a piece I'm working on.

I suggested my Spark could do the job. They bit on it.

Then, I started reading the nightmare scenarios from people flying their Sparks indoors. Well, I was stuck, so I brought it in this morning and threw caution to the wind. I got some shots I can use and it served it's purpose for sure. I'll be way more comfortable flying in here next time. From the response I've gotten, there will be a "next time" indeed.

I had to click on the Youtube link directly.

Cool video. It is an interesting change of pace to see the Spark flying indoors in someplace huge. Shots were all nice and steady. Well done.

Scary... I fly indoors but in an open room not between shelves like that.   I guess you could have gotten pretty much the same shots with a camera riding or a forklift.

you did very well considering the amount of metal in that warehouse!

That worked very well.
I like this video a lot

I thought about that, but they'd never go for that for safety reasons. Not that flying a Spark in there is so safe, but the worst is really a broken drone I guess.

Thank you very much. I love this Spark. It's my first "real" drone. I'm sure a Mavic is in my near future. I already picked up a Tello too and it's fun. Keeps me on my toes and gives me some flight practice.

Thank you very much. I like to try new things at my job since corporate training film isn't the most exciting stuff. I think this will add some new looks to things.

And thanks for subscribing. Other than this, there's another flight piece from my first flight and a bunch of vlog entries. Oh, and don't forget my daughter's toy opening show from a few years ago. I'll have more flight stuff up soon.
