Persuaded my spotter to go for a walk - fly the tiny cleft that somehow reminds me of the Grand Canyon, trying to get down to the path through the tree tops. The first location is flown with the Rekon 5.
And doing the first "real" flight with the HGLRC Sector 5D at the second location. The spotter was really helpful because there is no buzzer.

Footage from GoPro 6/ReelSteady 2.

That's some exhilarating footage Depp.     Got my adrenaline rush just watching that footage.  What a great place to fly FPV.  Also, I got a kick out of seeing your mini Grand Canyon.

Thanks a lot, Downtown. Yes, I wanted to fly there for some time.

Thank you.
Yes, the last shot (making up the title picture) was a bit too close for my liking.

No, that was original.
I try not to speed up unless it really fits - mostly non-fpv footage speed ramps - and then I hope it is obvious so not to cheat.

That’s some really cool footage Depp and great piloting skills they should make a top gun school just for drone pilots.

I couldn't even DRIVE that fast, much less fly a drone at that speed.

Haha, yes, but ain't life the best school?

At least one of my drones is too fast for your motorways anyway ;-)

But not for yours,
Is it still unlimited on the Autobahn over there?

If there is no sign it's unlimited. But on quite a few (1/3 to 1/2?) there are restrictions.

Thank you.
Well, it's all a question of practice. And recklessness because it is quite nimble and steers very well.

You can see both sides of the argument - for and against. I see.
