dusted off and then stripped down and completely rebuilt my old X-quadcopter... been 3 years since I was last flying it....

Used a gopro hero 3 black edition fitted to a Tarot T4-3D gimbal...... mainly just mucking about near my hometown, hopefully be doing some MTB aerial vids soon..(1080p HD version can be selected)

We have a DJI Mavic Air that we call Stephen. It's quite a good toy but I'm not sure I'd spend the money again necessarily.

Should know this, but... how do you embed a Youtube video like that?

Click on the you tube video share icon, select the tab to copy the link. Come here click the sixth tab across (what's it supposed to be?)  on the icons above the text box then copy your link in to the text box. That's how I do it anyway.

Guid stuff Davy!.

I reckon Cairnsmore of fleet behind Kirro would be a peach for a drone vid, as it's open, no tree cover, and has fantastic open aspects over the firth.....

had thought of that with a few other bikers.....tis the bloody slog up the hill with all the gear that puts me off, as the multirotor is a fair sized beastie and it don't fold down....LOL

Nice stuff. They say this summer has excited the archaeologists because of the amount of ground markings showing through the vegetation. Is there anything likely to show up near you?
