An advice, when you descent fast, move forward, or backward in the same time. The drone will avoid its own turbulences. Otherwise the drone constantly try to stabilize. This is what is visible at 7:00, but I assume you had this during all descent. (camera is stable, so you just dont see it) I believe that with your rate of descent, you could theoretically loose the control of your drone. ;)

[@Syclone0044]

I wondered this even before I got my DJI Mavic Pro and my Spark. They both seem to descend perfectly though. I have tried descending at an angle downwards and it doesn’t seem much different. I often need to descend rapidly and there seems to be no way to do so. You’d think that would be simple!

There are many arguments to support the irresponsibility of "record" flying with LiPo battery-driven multi rotors. However, the MOST important is HOW this will be perceived by those who NEED to make rules. These are the examples used to point to the DANGER of DRONES. Sure ... odds of collision low. Visibility great, etc. However, claims as to "no aircraft within 100km" is simply ridiculous, no one could really know for certain. And this "wind data" is (at least) 3 hrs behind "real time,' so this means little. Also, there is simply NO WAY this Mavic could have gotten out of the way of a pilot who decided to take his plane up from the nearby airport. Before this stratospheric Mavic could descend from 8,000 ft, a pilot angered sat the nearby field (the runway clearly visible in the middle ground) could hop into his private aircraft, taxi the runway and get airborne. And that airport is no more than what ... 1.5 miles from ground zero? Anyway, all of this is moot. The many who are politically or emotionally predisposed to prohibit these little aircraft from flying at points across the planet, will point to precisely these sorts of FAME-motivated (and KZbin traffic-driven) stunts to restrict the rest of us who ... unfortunately ... must live within the laws established by such politically and emotionally motivated a-holes as society produced in great abundance. So ... a BIG THANKS for making all of our Part 107 lives more difficult. Hope the fame lasts long enough for you to gain some understanding of WHY this is not cool. It is only COOL for you, and those who live vicariously through such stunts done by others. These are not heroes, they're just pains in the ass for the rest of us WORKING professionals. Even worse, others even less conscious will see this video and will fall over each in their rush to do even dumber stunts. Thanks again. Oh ... nice footage.

[@Chatslet]

The overcorrect warning means that the motors are drawing to much current at once from the battery and thus damaging the lithium packs. Probably because the drone needs to stabilise itself for heavy wind while you're asking it to ascent as well. Ascending at a lower speed might prevent that message from showing.

[@Mat-kk9qf]

Just want to mention, that I loved the fact, you flew the drone over the water first, so if the drone somehow drop down (battery, malfunction, whatever) - you maybe lose the drone in the ocean but you less likely bring someone in danger. Props for that :)

[@Thanos28GR]

[@waltweaver3661]

Yeah, the 400 foot restriction is just a guideline. Class G airspace can extend up to 1200 feet AGL, so there shouldn't be any legal restriction flying a drone at least that high. Where the whole legal thing gets a bit hazy, IMHO is flying in mountainous terrain. What happens if you start flying a drone on top of a 14,000 foot mountain, get it up to 20 feet or so, and then fly it over the valley below the mountain, flying straight and level? Suddenly you're at, say, 8,000 feet AGL. Are you legal or not? I think the FAA is still trying to wrap their collective brains around this problem. I've done this with my drone (a DJI Mavic Pro). Was I "legal" once my drone was over the valley at 8000' AGL? Heck, I dunno. But it made for a heck of a good video. And then there is the case of cities that ban drones from flying over parks. They really can't do that; the FAA controls the airspace over the parks, not the cities, but many, if not most, city officials don't realize this. What the city officials CAN do is prohibit people from taking off their drones in a public park, since they control the park grounds. But it's still possible, I believe, to launch your drone outside of a public park and fly over it. Where I live (Bozeman, Montana) I wanted to fly my drone in one of the public parks where the church I go to was holding a function. I called city to clarify what the rules were of launching a drone. Nobody could tell me. I kept getting transferred to another department. Finally I was transferred to a guy who is a private pilot like me, knows the city (and FAA) rules and simply told me, "There are no restrictions. Just fly by FAA rules and guidelines". And there's that sticky little word: "Guidelines". What it mainly comes down to is common sense. Flying a drone over isolated island with little, if any, air traffic at 3000 meters is a whole different animal than doing the same thing over New York City, where 3000 meters would put you in, or at least through, Class B airspace, where a working transponder is required. How many drones have transponders on board? The whole thing is a good source of endless debate. And, as I said, a good dose of common sense is, IMHO, mandatory.

[@marcularis]

In Romania we have to fly it MORE than 150 meters (altitude) not under😂

[@JoeBlow-24]

Not sure I understand the anti drone people, there are loads of planes that operate with no transponders, no radar, no nothing. My friend flies a Cessna and it only has a handful of dials in it. I have another friend who has a Mosquito that he lands in his back yard! How can the argument against drones be that "nobody knows they are there"? None of the guys without radar know where the others guys without radar are either, when I was a boy the crop dusters didn't even have radios in them, those guys didn't call the FAA to spray for bugs. Some of you guys act like drones are crashing planes left and right, there hasn't been a single death from a drone. Birds are way heavier, bone and sinew is much stronger than plastic. By the Federal Aviation Administration's own estimate, only 20 percent of bird strike incidents show up in the FAA's voluntary registry, and it's unlikely that they're a representative sample. US Airways Flight 1549 was flown into a flock and it took at least 3 (though it could have been more) 8 pound Canadian Geese, birds are a concern but the planes are designed for it. To make the argument that drones are a danger of such magnitude they need regulated out of existence is simply ridiculous.

[@Deutsche_1]

Nothing antidrone there, but safety is a issue many here don`t regard as important. the laws are made for everyone and protect everyone, but not everyone follows the law, that is why we have prisons, and a lot of lawbreakers sit in prisons because they didn`t follow the law, or caused misery to other people.....think again before flying a drone higher than the law describes... even a small stone thrown from a bridge towards the highway can cause a serious accident

[@JoeBlow-24]

@@Deutsche_1 You didn't address a single point I had regarding the inconsistencies in the anti drone rhetoric, not one. Every argument against drones is already present in manned aircraft. I'm not interested in your deflection about prisons or people who occupy them. I have manned aircraft flying below 400 feet above my house on a regular basis, my home is not on a departure or approach. Yet the LAW says manned flights have to stay above 500.

[@MickyTicky2x4]

Obviously this wasn't in the U.S. I can't comment on other countries laws as I'm not familar with them. However in the U.S there are different air spaces that are all classified differently. You friends that you are referring to (if in the U.S) must be flying in class G airspace which is below 700ft AGL, or outside of any class of airspace. You must have clearance to fly into any class of airspace that isn't G. Doing so without clearance is a serious crime with a hefty jail sentence. You'd be surprised how much of U.S airspace is NOT class G.

[@JoeBlow-24]

@@MickyTicky2x4 I live exactly 4.986 miles from an International airport. I'm in controlled (class d) airspace and have to apply for permission every three days to fly. The drones software requires it in order to take off, a farther 5 miles out is class E. The flight app I use shows it as light blue and orange. I'm required to stay under 400 feet leaving a 100 foot buffer for manned aircraft, I've done model RC for 25 years. If there were laws being enforced prior to the "drone invasion of 2006" they were never enforced in my neck of the woods. When I was a kid my dads buddies would put cameras on the big models (6 foot wing spans) for fun, this was near Selfridge Air Force Base mind you. My knowledge for manned aircraft and where and how high they can fly is limited to what I need to know to fly in 2019. Prior to drone ownership I would pack up my heli, find a big field, gas it up and fly. Manned aircraft are routinely under 400 feet where I fly my drone. Last spring I had a Sheriffs helicopter hovering over our neighborhood grocery store at what had to be 100 feet, I could have hit it with a thrown baseball. My friend with the Cessna keeps his plane at the same international airport. My friend with the mosquito lives in a smaller township but he sure isn't rural (I don't know what class airspace he is in). If I were a betting man, the crop duster guys didn't give a shit one way or the other.

Just wonder how you could be sure than there were "no aircraft in a 200 mile radius"?If you use flightradar24 or similar websites that you should be aware of what they display. Not all aircraft are ADS-B out equipped.

[@Thanos28GR]

you cannot fly an airplane between mainland and islands without ADS-B transmitter. So it is quite safe.

[@Airplane_TV]

B live it or not, you will never see a Fokker 100 or 70 on flightradar because they don't have ADS-B out (among other types) yet they are flying in that region for sure. You might mix up mode c with mode s..

[@Airplane_TV]

Lon Denard transponder mode C has nothing to do with NOT notifying ATC, but as you are a pilot yourself you should know. Ridiculing basic safety regulations doesn't do anyone a favour, if you look into the statistics of very close encounters between aircraft and UAV you understand, they are alarming. And the first collisions already happened, one in Canada and one in Germany. Oh, and I happen to fly Greek airspace overhead those islands with hundreds of passengers.

[@Airplane_TV]

Lon Denard here in Europe all of your activities require a license, be it skydiving or paragliding. Compare the statistics I was referring to (United Kingdom rules with reporting these incidents) with those of aircraft near-misses and you see a different picture. Reminds me of "laser attacks" which are increasing to an alarming rate.

[@Airplane_TV]

judging that there is a gretare risk of two aircraft colliding than a collision between aircraft and a drone is neglecting a few facts: Aircraft under IFR over a certain size have TCAS (nothing to do with ADS-B out..) which enables them to avoid each other, while drones are completely out of the picture. The guy on Milos may pose a verey remote risk, but what about a guy on another island who is inspired by the (wrong) "I can see aircraft coming" statement? The schedule on the island itself doesn't help if your location is right below heavy in- and outbound traffic to the big airport on the neighbour island. And there's a lot of traffic to the Greek islands. About an actual collicion: A UK study has confirmed that a helicopter can be downed by the impact of a consumer drone, and airplanes can be seriously damaged. especially windshield and propeller; while a jet will survive the impact the brushless motors or the batteries of even a small drone would damage a jet engine to the extent where a shutdown may be necessary. I wouldn't want to be in the place of that drone operator. Regarding the US citizens and their need to protect themselves from the government (especially the second amendment of the constitution) I am not entering a discussion here. You can compare the death rate with other western countries by yourselves.

Wow, awesome video. This reaffirms my decision of recently purchasing a Mavic Pro and the quality of it. I have yet to fly it because I have been practicing and acquiring skills with a toy drone. Thanks again for the beautiful video !!!

I can tell you from personal experience that it is idiot proof.....not that you can guarantee 100% that you'll never have a problem, but if you take it outside into a wide open area you'll be AMAZED at how easy this thing is to fly. keep it on beginner mode, keep all sensors turned on....keep it easy to start....but don't be afraid of your drone! she's amazing!

[@Thanos28GR]

agree 100%

[@BenA-bu1cz]

Very cool. Very nice pictures

[@Thanos28GR]

thanks a lot!!

[@jrpadilla899]

Awesome video. Planes fly at an altitude of 30,000 feet and above. Unless your near an air port then there is no problem.

[@riverbankfisher]

The glide slope for descent towards an airport can be up to 100 miles long for an aircraft that reduces throttles to flight idle at 33,000 feet AGL to commence its standard "rule of three" descent towards its destination airport. At 20 miles from the airport, as the aircraft aligns itself with the ILS feather located on short finals, the aircraft will typically be at about 2,500 feet AGL as it drops its landing gear, which is less than 1,000 meters of altitude. Theoretically, a drone flying 1,000 meters up could wind up getting ingested into a jet aircraft engine's intake as much as 20 miles from the nearest airport.

[@weltvonoben]

We all know how cool it is to fly high above the ground, but it's just a big risk. Something can always happen. First, I like your Video, you put much effort in it, but there are always two sides of the medal. Here in Germany you just can't fly anymore, there are so many people which call the police because the felt threatened or observed. It's just a shame. Four years ago, before the big drone hype, people showed interest in our hobby and now it's completely different. Thanks to media with their horrific documentations, to idiots with no respect for rules or private properties. I guess in a few years drone flying will be illegal. So please think about the stuff you upload. It will inspire stupid kids to do the same. Have a nice one 👍 and safe flying

[@Thanos28GR]

let me share my thoughts here. Did those people who call the police in Germany read somewhere that a drone put down a plane or something? I doubt.....Did they hear that there was an accident? again I doubt. They feel threatened from what? From the camera of the drone I guess.....not from the drone itself. Which is a totally different matter. To be honest, I believe there will always be a kid or a grown up who will try to do something without taking the necessary precautions. Somebody sees a supercar going 300+ on the German autobahn might try doing the same at home. Does that mean we should cancel the no limit autobahns? I don't think so. I really appreciate your input, and up to a certain point I could say that I agree with you. I hope the rules will get softer there and you can enjoy your bird much more!

[@weltvonoben]

B live it Thanks for the Answer! In Fact, they do. There was an incident with a Canadian airplane, which was the reason a old lady called the police last time i flew in the local park. It's really embarrassing. Another Time, again a old Lady, comes up to me and asked me why I was filming her.. it was total stupid and I told her that Im just flying around and use the fpv as orientation, that every mobile phone with a camera could film her too. She refused to understand me. In Germany there are two "public legal tv hosts" beside of the privat ones. Mostly watched by old people. ZDF and ARD. They do such a hate speech in their tv reports, it's just ridiculous... people look at me like Im a criminal just because a fly a drone... Excuse my bad English Edit: The bad news about the Autobahn is : they think about a so called Tempolimit, Speedlimit..

[@Thanos28GR]

first of all thank you for your input to my channel !!! I would like to start with what you just said about the no limit autobahns.....please oh please let that NOT be true.....each and every country in this planet has some special characteristics.....going 300+ with a car in total safety is a German thing and should remain UNTOUCHED.... As for those older ladies there is nothing you can do really.... they can't keep up with new technology and they see drones as something extraterrestrial.....As for your English, they are quite perfect so stop worrying!!

Hi Tom, I had a similar experience Reaching just over 8000’ft Fortunately the return to home engaged but battery died about 1000’ft as it was fighting wind whilst descending and crashed into heathers, Bent an arm and snapped few propellers. Do you still use the phantom3? Been looking at the Mavic and trying to justify the money

[@thomasfrazier2090]

@@fosterscreations9383 , i have 2 broken phantom 3's and a spark. The spark is a communication problem with the controller, i think. Hopefully fix it and continue flying it. I have some 300+ flights on the spark. Not sure what ill do with the phantoms. Ive found one good place to fly above the 400'ft restriction without trouble. Highway rest areas outside city limits, are also a long way from airports and hospitals. So i can fly up to 1600' and my spark can go a little over a mile. My dream drone is the mavic 2 enterprise with dual camera and flir thermal imager. @ $2899 and a checking balance of $126. Its gonna be awhile. I just saw a review of some stealth props for the mavic that kick ass in terms of silencing the noise of the craft in flight. Id check em out when you go for it. Good luck. Almost forgot, highway rest areas can be notorious for creepymen. The drones have a funny effect. Fire up my drone and the creeps engines start up about the same time and they fly away faster than the drone. While the decent people become curious and come over and start talking and asking questions. Lol

In Greece it is not much better. The fine is high, and they are right.

500 PLN or 5 years in prison?? Unless my currency converter is completely wrong, 500 PLN seems the better choice :P

[@cicilovesdrones2974]

I'll take 500 PLN for the win, Alex.

[@captainmarcin6105]

No it's not. If you're not in any special zone (airports, military, etc), you can fly up to 9500 feet theoretically, but the drone should also remain visible for the observator. There is no law which would specify the ceiling altitude for VLOS drone flights.

[@Thanos28GR]

There is a youtube channel link in the description of the video that explains everything you need to know on how to hack your drone!!! After that sky is the limit .... :)

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

crazy experiment, love it ;-) wonder what caused the overcurrent during discharge warning?

[@Thanos28GR]

my guess is it was caused by using the motors to the limit at 8m/s.....do you have any other thoughts on that?

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Possible a weak cell in the battery, but as said not sure

[@Thanos28GR]

to give u some feedback, it shows that message EVERY TIME i fly on the limit, with any of my 2 batteries. So I guess you can rule out some bad cell....

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

no, can't be that then

[@enriquesubias]

It usually happens a when you pull both sticks up and the motor speed is max. Nothing to worry about.

[@crispy-k]

The autofocus just seems really bad :/ It keeps trying to focus but gets blurry. Sad. Nice video though !

[@myytchannel6632]

Fly that high? Lol, these drones are amazing. It will go past that height. I think someone has such a video on youtube. The only thing here is it will take only one drone someday to bring down a plane and that will make big news around the world and tighten laws on drones.

[@TobiasSchorr]

Of course the fly in that altitude for the descent to the airports of Paros, Naxos, Myconos and Santorini JTR. And of course to Milos. Also there are often training flights that come in directly in the position, where this stupid guy was flying. A bad sample for the drone community. And the video is not even great...

@@rileywags This really depends on how you look at it. There are curtain rules sat up by government we all should follow. I dont say those rules are well made or that they suits our needs. But... there are some rules - and I think we all should act upon them. I doubt there is no height limit for small drones in US - so, thats about it. I would also say, that optimal solution for all of us would be to make licence mandatory for all types of drones. Together with more easy rules and restrictions - since, you probably know what you do after registration and identification process.
