Be gentle with you Pete ------- yeah right: Only wish I had the skills and knowledge for that, very impressive to much of that and nobody will go to the events, will sit back and watch your video. I also enjoyed your other clips. Nice set up you've got there , Thanks Pete. Now back to my gentle -------

IT'S SORT OF OK ,

Nah. My last one did. (Phantom) It's cool if you like the sound of props spinning, "buzzzzzzzzzzzzz!" ;)

It's made by, "DJI" and this model is called an, "Inspire 1".

Here's a link to it.

It is relatively easy to operate but if you've been flying RC gear for a while, it makes it a lot easier. ;) If you're starting out I'd recommend their first model, "Phantom".

Cheers mate. Any kind of feedback is appreciated, good or bad. I watch it now and see where it could of been improved. Like some dash cam footage, land based footage and truck audio thrown in the mix, but for a first time drone shoot I'm fairly happy.
I bore easy when I watch coverage of this type of event. It's always a challenge to keep my eyes glued to the screen on the final edit or keep you people interested. If you get bored watching, I call that a fail.
