This Saturday @ 8am the on 30th of May 2015, Christchurch's Central Police Building will be getting Imploded. Last Sunday I was lucky enough to get permission to get my drone close to it. Here's a 1:35sec clip of my first aerial view of the demo job.
Nice footage, that drone/camera system is rock steady
Is that manually flown or are you using way points?

Good question. Flying by waypoints for the "Inspire 1" drone I use isn't far away but we have been waiting for it a while now..
Yes, it's being flown in semi manual control. "P" (position) mode. Using GPS. So as soon as I leave the controls alone it stay's in one point in up to 80kmph winds. Cheers!
