Super Duper - Far From Falling

[@RonaldBrown59]

You always find very interesting places to fly at. Awesome video and great piloting skills on display. I look forward to more of your drone adventures this summer.

[@MatthewMcCain628]

Just incredible Billy! You’ve worked hard on your skill. Keep bringing the good stuff brother.😀

[@jareddegood8313]

Love how you got those cars to drive backwards at the end.

[@toyotacrawler84]

The footage was rendered in reverse.

[@Make-Asylums-Great-Again]

Twisted Arch Productions r/wooosh.

[@Mr1970827]

Yeah I just looked at it again and noticed, sweet and that's where creativity comes in... Great job...

[@karthurjr]

Billy, a remarkable work of cinematography with equal editing The music was also spot on. Congrats!

[@MrWheatle]

Awesome footage! I especially liked the speed boat chase & the bridge . The smoke stack capture was amazing. Your steady flight around the Stack made it appear that the Stack was actually turning. Great stuff

[@captaincaveman00]

Awesome work there billy have been following you for sum time now and believe this is one of your best so far . You have a great future mate keep up the hard work its awsum. 👍

[@kevinhudson6256]

Super nice flying and vid man. Very good job of the rise up and orbit of Light house.

[@abfreeman10]

Billy, great video. You can hot swap without that tool. Push the battery release button, take out one battery and swap it with a charged one. Wait 5 sec and then remove the 2nd spent battery and put in the 2nd charged battery. Hot swap complete

[@brianbracherphotography]

Brilliant cinematic flying Billy, so many different reveal shots 👌🙌🙌🙌 now saved as a reminder of what I can achieve with practice 🙏👍

[@PositiveImagesPhoto]

Great footage, when you have the right tools it is astounding what you can do. You have a lot of old stuff in your part of the world.

[@StephenBell_video]

As a new inspire 2 pilot I’m very impressed by your flying! That shot of the lighthouse is stunning!! 👏👏👏

[@skatasdroneview5574]

I love your videography, I can only hope to be that good one day. It kills me to not have the time to fly as much as I need to get better. Thank you.

[@MrHector011]

Another Awesome video Billy. Video footage of places are phenomenal!

[@michaelgilbert4005]

Great tip, I have done the same with my I2 numerous times. No more after seeing this. thanks!

[@RICKHALBUR]

Great tips and fantastic footage all in one video thanks so much Billy

[@DoomerONE]

Useful info about the legs , never saw anything like that in all the Inspire videos I have seen so very helpful. The footage sir was truly amazing, you have a very keen eye. Thanks for sharing. And yes at the 5:40 mark I think I would have fainted :)

[@SCAerialsSteveCarpenter]

Hey Billy, Total Bummer, great tips of what not to do! That’s some outstanding aerial footage, very nice editing and soundtrack. Thanks for sharing, take care!

[@Mr19james66]

Great video. Which camera are you using on the inspire 2. Amazing footage. Keep up the great work. Sorry to hear about the broken landing legs.

[@MikeKinney8675]

Awesome video Billy. I am still flying the mavic-pro, haven't had the money to upgrade yet, but like you said, I love the drone and the spark. I don't know where your at, kinda looked like my home in North Carolina. Thanks for takeing the time and effort to make your videos, they are very helpful and informative. Mike in N.C.

[@marcomachado619]

A great work you did, congratulations for that, hugs and all the best.

[@jakoberiksen2944]

Wow nice job! 😊 do you use any intelligent modes to help keep your subject in frame when going around it?

[@julietasun4970]

Very nice shots! and love its DR. Fast and Smooth good job!

[@JP4]

One of the best drone videos I've ever seen! 🙌🏽

[@joezweig9202]

Nice video Billy. I was wondering where you get your music for your edits.

[@EleanorJiang]

You have some serious skills! Love the boat chase shots

[@1949rgs]

I'm in awe of your flying skills. You're an inspiration to this novice.

[@billykyle]

Thank you Bob! We all have room to grow.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Wow Billy, your videography skills are top notch! There's almost too much to comment on here. The Sea Doo chase was a highlight, but everything was amazing right down to the slow fade to black at the end.

[@BlueCollarConsultingGroup]

When I see someone discussing inspiration, I always reach out and say hello. Just how long have you been constructing videos?

[@adnan_velic]

The footage is looking near perfect. Amazing control you can only get with tons of practice! If you decide to get the x5s make sure you pick up a 45mm the footage will go to another level. That watch tower motion was insane by the way.

[@Time2FLYAlDiaz]

I thought your case was a landing mode case, allowing you to keep your camera connected at all times. Solid footage! Gotta love the I2

[@stephenopiah8616]

Great footage! Did you buy the cinema DNG & Apple Pro res Activation key?

[@michaelripple8371]

Great footage Billy I wish I had that control 300Flights and counting

[@BradHenderson]

Great video Billy! Would love to see one that on how to use nd filters along with colour grading explained thoroughly. My two hangs ups with trying to create great drone videos like this one! I currently have the Mavic 2 Zoom as the best in my fleet of drones.

[@kbchronicles3048]

EXCEPTIONAL flight and camera control, Billy...impressive to say the least. However, that was a close call with the gull around 5:40. :-)

[@jimmyhidalgo2680]

Oml those shots were so smooth Howd u get them that smooth while going that fast

[@SkyViewAerialProductions]

Please do show more of ur footage, it is beautiful

[@jbolf6]

Outstanding footage Billy, great job

[@bluesteeltraining]

Thanks Billy, I was doing the same thing. Do you use free mode when filming or do you use follow? I’m still getting used to he Inspire 2 so I find myself getting lazy and using follow mode.

[@pwidmayer]

Billy great footage of the Embreeville Complex and Downingtown Trestle Bridge - they are on my shot wish list since I am here in West Chester!

[@MrJames-dk3my]

Excellent video I enjoyed watching it great job and prefect music.

[@TheGeorgiaDrone]

Torched it. Solid quality shots bro. Great music choice as well.

[@williamsimin]

Thank you for the video ❤️always great and useful stuffs

[@Eli-lb1lc]

Danggg that’s insane. Great work Billy

[@josevanessacintron7852]

Awesome footage. Where do you get your music from?

[@yinshantang]

A beautiful bird and beautiful views. What cameras did you use?

[@pakjannat]

Awesome video, I didn’t see the link for the battery swap out tool, I have a buddy who has a 3-D printer and I could really use that for my inspire 2! How did you come up with the idea for the tool? It looks awesome!

[@wagslarr]

Great footage Billy! Good Job!

[@cre8tivity06]

Dope content!!! I recognized the first few shots because I live about 10 minutes from that bridge! LOL! For all the boat chasing shots, did you have a second person on the sticks to control the camera? Also where were you flying from meaning were you back on land or flying from another boat? It seemed like the drone was way out there. I didn't realize how fast the Inspire 2 can fly! That thing was keeping up with that speed boat! Pretty impressive flying and shooting.

[@mdoering]

The flying/filming was impressive, but I think I'm more impressed by the driving skills of that pickup truck driver backing up that trailer at 65mph in the last shot 🤣

[@GHEC3]

I have to say very nice also are you flying and taking video or is someone on another controller never the less I liked all of it !!

[@jeffgolden1271]

Billy. Great photography! When you were filming of the speedboat, what was your top horizontal speed?

[@billykyle]

About 45-50 mph. Could go a lot faster if I needed to with the Inspire, though.

[@InvincibleStormFilms]

Stunning Billy. Simply stunning 🛸 💨 💨 💨

[@davidadams421]

G l u e d t o t h e s c r e e n !! Epic, Billy ... makes me want to go fly right now - inspiring. My favourite clip was the lighthouse. Skills!

[@PatrikLindgren]

Great little battery switching tool there, i wouldnt mind having one of those at hand. Someone should sell them! If i may, in a lot of I2 videos i see people sort of beating up on their drones pretty good in the way they handle them. And yes it is a solid thing, no doubt, but i always try to land soft and smooth and not just bang it down on the ground. I always hold the drone with my other hand when i switch batteries and stuff, i never push down on it when its stationed on the ground. I never go from landing mode to travel mode when the drone is fully loaded on the ground, i do that by holding it up in the air so not to put unnecessary strain on the whole rig. I know that things can be a bit stressed in a working environment or on set but i do these things anyway, a few sexonds here and there is usually not a problem. Just a few tips and tricks that i have learned from using my I2. Awesome clips in the end, i especially liked that abandonded railway, or road, beautiful sceneries. 🙏🏻👍🏻

[@Gular58]

Great footage Billy really enjoyed it!

[@skyreadydeliveries2598]

Amazing footage ! Solo Op ?

[@very9000]

Hello Friend. How do you manage to keep the subject in the middle of the frame at high speed? Did you shoot the video alone or was the second operator helping you?

[@ronaldhubach6574]

Great video. Keep them coming.

[@Poserinc]

Billy you think you could make a tutorial on drone shots? Or if any updates on magic pro 2

[@davidjaypeterson644]

Great footage billy from the secret agent!

[@mtctookie25]

Pretty sweet footage Billy!

[@3ConservativeGimps]

Awesome video footage Billy. I'm having a blast with my Mavic Air.

[@billykyle]

Awesome!

[@kdkcphotos]

Great tip, thank you! Awesome video footage!!!

[@Antsmith21]

I love the over the water clips.

[@Mr1970827]

Hey Billy that a sweet move. With the ending, very clever...

[@billykyle]

😬

[@Stefan_Besteman]

Omg im an inspire pilot too but i mean im blown away by the shots!! Its not about camera quality! Its something about how you fly its amazing!! Orbits around the lighthouse whilst climbing in alitiude is amazing!!!!

[@billykyle]

Thank you!

[@jonahlevine]

Awesome shots, but don't you think it's worth it to upgrade to the x5s or x7? The difference in quality between the x4s and Mavic 2 doesn't seem hugely noticeable especially considering how much more of a pain in the ass carrying around the inspire is. I'm sure someone without a trained eye wouldn't be able to tell even more so. Really awesome edit though!

[@MrEddieNunez]

Great footage Billy!

[@Livingtheglobe]

The siral around the smokestack tho! BOOM

[@gd198070]

Great video, really enjoyed this one👍

[@adampapworth]

How did you fix it? I have had all the legs break during different landings, in Perth WA I was able to buy the replacement parts and easily attach new legs.

[@adampapworth]

Billy is this real? Kind Regards Adam

[@checkeredflagfilms]

thanks for the tip and great flying BK! Did you know those people on the speed boat? I'm always afraid to get down that low in people's face. Do you ever hand off the camera duties to anyone?

[@billykyle]

Yes they were my girlfriends family. I always follow them around on their boat or their jet skis.

[@ontheflyby270]

Nice flying and camera control there.

[@ontheflyby270]

Sadly some people really do like to try it on! This message from a one day old profile seems utterly genuine. Thanks you Mr message

[@BrianKushner]

Great footage. What camera are you using?

[@billykyle]

Just the Zenmuse X4S

[@michalpaulin9606]

Doesn't it say in the manual - never hot swap the batteries? I know it does because I read it, but what are your thoughts on this?

[@JakeEarp]

Dope tip dude! I’m guilty of doing the same , but not anymore haha

[@ChasTucker]

Dope Footage! Was this in prores? Or just onto a memory card in h.264?

[@billykyle]

Memory card, shooting with the Zenmuse X4S. Looking to upgrade cameras soon.

[@domnickwalsh1496]

Love the tip about the legs - I just ordered the Inspire 2 - I will have it in about 2 to 3 weeks - I have the Mavic Pro 2 ( Its a great drone as well ~)

[@billykyle]

Awesome! Have fun, it's a beast 😬

[@domnickwalsh1496]

Hi Billy - This is Domnick -- Are you saying I won a drone ??? What's Next -- Love your Tube show --

[@danieldejesusjr3348]

Leaning back doesn’t break the feet. Leaning back and pushing downwards while trying to mount the camera is the issue. It’s perfectly fine to tilt it back.

[@overfly_pt]

FANTASTIC fly Great music Good Footage Great Drone 👌👌👌👌👌🇵🇹👍🇵🇹

[@budgetmountainbiker6268]

What ND filter did u use for bridge shot

[@MrJonesDroneFootage]

Chills and good vibes.

[@Antsmith21]

OMG! Thank you for sharing this, I do the same thing.

[@joepowers3731]

Awesome video , love it.

[@keithbrown454]

That video at the end is inspiring!!

[@Georgewrigley]

Beautiful video mate

[@buswoods]

Awesome video Billy

[@SkyViewAerialProductions]

Please show more inspire footage that you have gotten

[@meyowind5743]

Was this with the 4x camera?

[@teknopsfr6867]

Just wonderful Bravissimo!

[@rmphotoz7362]

GREAT VIDEO BILLY!

[@eisenschweinchen5354]

Wonderful views!

[@Lifeat39000ft]

Epic. No other words can explain

[@David-tm8xu]

Hi Billy, great footage really nice...

[@MikeSarni]

Nice billy.....i have to get out of philly and find some cool places to film🤟

[@kenmunn4421]

More nice work Billy

[@Mr1970827]

Hello billy quick question, what kind of lens did you use to shoot this video? 15 MM? Thank you in advance for your response.

[@billykyle]

With my camera or drone?

[@Mr1970827]

@@billykyle thank you for responding, I was referring to your Inspire 2, but I see you have a X4S on there. Man you're pics and videos are awesome. I have the Inspire 2 with the X5S camera on mines.

[@joeunfiltered2920]

Very nice footage..

[@jamesandrews29]

Great footage. Very relaxing and a joy to watch. Happy you escaped a bird strike!

[@billykyle]

I saw that as I was editing. Can’t believe I came that close!

[@germanassimonson1671]

Nice video. Last seconds of moving backwards above the bridge were especially cool, until I saw two cars at the bottom ;-) Still cool tho.
