Wondering how you graded the footage as your letter boxing is colorized

Nice! Thank you for sharing. I like the play with the nostalgic coloring, the black and white effect may have been much in the beginning though. You had good composition work overall.

Thanks for sharing this with us!!  

How much wind were you flying in? 20 mph?

The winds was around 10mph off the ground... a little camera buffeting so face away from the wind to reduce this...

I was just on the Oregon coast and the wind was about the same (10mph) I was filming some 5th scale cars on the beach.  

You did a great job keeping this in frame

Thanks Rich, The trick is to keep it in the middle and allow it to follow at a similar speed The up and down moment can be adjusted but go really slow for this as the left thumb dial takes some getting used to...
The right control stick is mostly used to match your subjects velocity and to go near or far from the subject...
I recommend this for long straight chases... and twist and turns of the subject, let the camera follow at a distance... Oh and your yaw control iis your panning so be real slow with this control or max out the exponetial values in your controller.

There is a advance camera tracking software called autopilot, this uses gps to track the subject but you need a phone to do this... maybe one day I might be able to demo this on a subject...

I understand and I am sure it takes practice to get it right. I have AutoFlight Logic software, but have not used it for this type of thing yet.

I will share my gimbal settings for yaw, it makes using the yaw control very smooth for these kinds of shots.
