Flight Above The Clouds (Not The Real Clouds) - Dji Avata 2

[@BommeltjeNL]

What do you mean “not the real clouds”?? Fog is a cloud laying on the ground. If you want to know how it is to be in a cloud, just wait until fog and go out. Great footage though 👍

Come on man, you just visited heaven... one of the best videos above the clouds... And the music, astonishing, put me inside the drone. Well done just subbed

[@Dez1981]

@@DesertRat136 was only about 1000 feet, was a low foggy morning

[@JimmyjWasTaken]

Amazing video but the FFA states that you have to stay 500 ft below clouds. "FAA's Advisory Circular 107-2 on Section 107.51 Operating limitations for small unmanned aircraft. Minimum distance from clouds being no less than 500 feet below a cloud and no less than 2000 feet horizontally from the cloud." (Edit here if the moisture starts below 50ft it would actually be considered fog I still wouldn't recommend flying in fog as moisture can get in the drone)

[@Dez1981]

agree, the condensation was building up so fast I was only able to fly a few mins before the lens was soaked. I was really worried about it shorting out the motor from the moisture and the drone taking a spill in the lake.

[@Chill-O-Drone-t3h]

The sound at the end reminds me of a tie fighter 😎

None of you seem to be aware of the legal height restriction of 400’. Or VLOS of 1500’. What happens if a helicopter sucks that into an intake?

[@Dez1981]

There where no helicopters a few hundred feet off the lake that morning. The Avata 2 automatically caps your height to what's legal in the zone you are flying in at the time. You can clearly see the roof of my car through the fog layer when doing my orbits, which means my spotter has a clear VLOS to my drone. With a ND filter and some camera settings can make the FOG LAYER look like clouds as if you are in an airplane. What happed here is PPL took the title seriously and really think I few a tiny drone up to the cloud layer!

[@simonludgate721]

⁠@@Dez1981I have an Avata and it will top out at whatever you set it at like any other drone. There’s no special juju. What range and height did you fly to? Again - you need to maintain VLOS within a maximum radius of 1500 feet if safe. Flying into fog is not VLOS.
