KEN HERON - DJI Phantom 4 Pro - Follow Me Mode [4K]

[@IslandRyland]

Driving a manual and flying a drone... LOVE IT LOL

[@rarbiart]

I like Garry's invisible car!

[@realmccoy5923]

Don't Worry, Nick (another visual observer) would have been backing Garry up and spotting for Ken in the Corn Field. They are usually just out of shot because they don't want to spoil Ken's Professional Aerial Photograhy ;-)

[@troysfon]

Yeah... we'll go with that. ;-)

[@billfarnham1592]

Nothing as beautiful as Tennessee landscape. No insult intended.

[@onemat2000]

I continue to be blown away by these videos. The picture is fabulous.

[@KenHeron]

Thanks for the nice comment Matt.

[@SoKoolMario]

Just a man having fun with his drone. We love America ❤️

[@KenHeron]

That's me!👍

[@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC]

Great video Ken, thank you for sharing with all of us brother.

[@theone2be33]

I needed a midnight drone snack... Let me go get some refreshments and kick back and watch another fun vid! Thanx Ken!

[@GarretB123]

Thanks Ken! That video was truly "amaizing.”

[@KenHeron]

And... ZING!

[@crispyspa]

Will the DJI follow me mode follow an RC car or an RC boat? Does the system work visually or with the signal coming from the transmitter?

[@KenHeron]

It follows the controller.

[@JohnTothPhoto]

What an am-maize-ing feature! Definitely trying that one today.

[@morningcoffee1111]

Some great shots there. Thanks for sharing.

[@scndblj]

Ken, watching you drive confirms it. You're all ears.

[@KenHeron]

HAAA!!! Corny.

[@stevekaboobiroo1479]

Nice aerials and great countryside.

[@bobperry9964]

Beautiful country! Reminds me of Maine. We have loads of great roads like this.

[@KenHeron]

Maine is very pretty, Bob!

[@mmckeown503]

Oh man, this is great! Thanks for posting.

[@VentureAHighway]

*Very cool, the footage from the outside driving is exactly the type of footage I love to watch. I haven't seen many car KZbinrs do this.. but I imagine it is very difficult especially in anywhere somewhat populated*

[@KenHeron]

It is difficult, but much easier with a visual observer. 👍 Glad you liked it!

[@sanches2]

I was just checking out videos about Phantom4 and saw yours.. the result- you've got a new subscriber

[@gd198070]

Nice country and another entertaining video - I imagine that was a stress test with all the multi-tasking needed to control drone and car at the same time

[@KenHeron]

I was only stressed when that power wire came near. 😁

[@studiodevelopers2467]

this is Amazing ! Love the great attitude ! amazing video work/ film work of forests ! and driving !

[@KenHeron]

You're very kind, thank you.

[@furballkimfpv9365]

That was fun Ken. She did rather well till the curve in the road. Thank's for the fun video Ken

[@Marksmisfitworld]

That was a great video. I sure am glad I stumbled across your channel recently.

[@MagnumVideos]

That was an awesome video, Ken. Really enjoyed it.

[@scubamjb]

Love your Videos Ken, Keep them coming!!!

[@KenHeron]

Will do!

[@kapperoutdoors]

awesome video :) Beautiful scenery and thanks for showing the follow me mode. I've got the phantom 4 pro, been flying for a few months now. Not sure what part of TN you are in, but if you ever want to try a collaboration visit, we're at the far Southern Tip of IL, very near Paducah and TN. I think 2 hours from Nashville. Keep up the cool vids! Kapper

[@KenHeron]

Hey! That might be fun! Private message me your email.

[@kirkchase5048]

That was super cool, exactly what i wanna do have a convertible roadster and lots of rural pavement....come on spring!

[@billut400]

"Hey" Ken! Great video! Was concerned with the power lines but thankfully Gary has excellent eyesight. 👀 Take care, Bill

[@kxpn]

Really good job, very well done. Tennessee all that corn.

[@bennie7781]

Another great video. Didn't know the P4P could follow at that elevation and speed. Thanks for sharing.

[@RobertGlazier]

Ken I want to do that here in Arizona while I drive. I am trying to figure out a way to set it up in my Dodge pickup. I think that I could attach it to my console. Great video as always. Thanks Robert.

[@rspdronephotography]

Pretty soon they're going to campaign with "Don't drive and drone!" LOL!!! that's awesome! Love that it compensates for distance on curves. Pretty cool! I haven't tried that function on my XSP just yet. Might try that while on the motorcycle!

[@Thraxonas]

Awesome video. As always Thanks for sharing.

[@KenHeron]

Glad to!

[@basbox]

Great as usual! THX Bas.

[@KenHeron]

You betcha Bas.

[@oldmanvlogger7450]

Love the videos Ken... Keep up the great work..

[@KenHeron]

Thanks!

[@oldmanvlogger7450]

You are quite welcome... I inspire to be like you... :)

[@Cory_Armitage]

Sometimes i forget about the features like this on my P4. I'm glad you reminded me. You got some crazy shots I need to try - in a safe place with little to no traffic and a spotter like good ole Gary - who was clearly very helpful for you and keeping his distance to make sure the path was well clear! Awesome vid....thanks!

[@KenHeron]

Thank you Cory! Safe flying!

[@Sporup]

Awesome video Ken. 👍👍👍👍

[@jacobsack]

the scenery is amazing

[@KenHeron]

West Tennessee is a beautiful area.

[@OneSquidOneBike]

You appear to be enjoying life! haha love it! I just bought my DJI 4 on eBay yesterday. Thanks for the video!!!!

[@philipblair7223]

Great video, made for some great laughs too, I love your style, it reminds me a little of my own....we have a couple of things in common Ken, I also own a Phantom 4 Drone (I own a small business doing production and have a background in sound, video and projection). I have been wanting to do some flying from my MAZDA RX-8 as well! Yes, I ALSO own a Mazda RX-8, mine's a 2004 with the sun roof so I can open that and have easy signal access from the car. Your great video encouraged my already strong desire to film using the drone featuring my High Performance Sports car perhaps along the great lakes here. I live in Sarnia, Ontario on Lake Huron at the St. Clair River. Perhaps some time we could fly our drones together from our cars or in tandem in some way somewhere beautiful between our locations if you're game. Great work with your video's, they are informative and great fun! Cheers! -Phil

[@Coolhand99au]

Loved it !! I'm off to try it !

[@KenHeron]

Great! --Good luck!

[@mjxdrones7123]

3 years on and still brilliant to watch 💯🆒👍

[@PerrynBecky]

Pretty cool how that follow me mode works.

[@cneedelman1]

Follow me mode would be great if the yaw adjustments were slower or smoother. Any way to do that? Love the RX8

[@KenHeron]

You can control the yaw independently while in follow me mode.

[@justgrayyy105]

I love how it kept going after you went under a bunch of dense trees! I’m really looking forward to getting a Parrot Anafi

[@MikesManCave]

Ill have to make some of these video's in Australia, love the idea of it.

[@WhatIThinkNation]

If it wasnt in sport mode, would the sensors work to avoid trees ?? climb on its own or will it still not avoid obstacles ? The backwards flying was very inspire like :) great shot

[@richglaser4566]

It's kind of amazing your signal was a good as it was being in a car. Love your wheels.

[@KenHeron]

Thanks!

[@jesallog]

Another great video. Thanks for sharing. DJI makes it look so easy doing this. But I have to say you did show the difficulties of flying in this mode and shifting gears with your car. Cant wait to try this with my 36ft RV :). With a mustang in tow.

[@KenHeron]

HA! Good luck! (Be careful.)

[@NotMrJones]

Great video man!

[@KenHeron]

Thank you!

[@felipetvictor]

cool the test !!! beautiful place

[@VishnuRajendranAmboo]

ever since i change from P4 to P4P i notice there's a slight vibration on the video at times.. i see here too

[@ralphanthony5198]

Excuse me, partner, how do you connect the bebop 1 to the skycontroller2? I have tried everything!!!

[@RobertGlazier]

Corngratulations Ken on a great video.

[@davidstewartproductions]

Your antennas in the beginning were not pointing at the drone? Beautiful area and very nice video! Love it, keep them coming!

[@l3ongveiw]

David Stewart Productions the antennas do not need to be pointed at the drone. It's RF not IR. I've flown over 15,000 feet away and was facing the opposite direction. It's pretty amazing the range on these things.

[@nderohan]

cool it did really well following ya above the trees it didnt cut out! i really wanna try with my p4 just gotta find somewhere to do it where i live in South Australia

[@CovertCriminalFPV]

I Haven't tried the, "Follow me" function yet. Does it use the gps from the phone/tablet or what?

[@KenHeron]

It uses the signal from the controller. Not GPS.

[@MustafaGT]

Hi Ken, what camera settings did you use on the drone for these clips? Looks very good.

[@limabean13]

Great video, as usual, and I'll certainly corn-tinue watching :-D

[@jchinchilla011]

Gracias !!! Excelente video. Saludos desde Costa Rica

[@vomue6444]

great video and a good proof. "Trying to go beyond studying" German proverb. Oh your laughter is really good over. Thanks for the video greetings from Germany

[@MERJODOS]

Good video Ken, I like it, good job.

[@dirkk.6404]

Hey Ken, another cool video... greetings to Gerry, he helped me a few weeks ago here in Germany... and I have seen other videos of drone pilots, I believe they know him too... the best spotter at all... :D

[@KenHeron]

Glad you enjoyed it over there in Germany!

[@Stefan_Johansson]

big up ... thanks for a realy great video

[@IslandDigital]

What a gorgeous place :).

[@CZMediaSeattle]

Love your channel homie

[@MagnumVideos]

What kind of monitor are you using on the controller?

[@KenHeron]

iPad air

[@MagnumVideos]

Thank you, Captain.

[@wakedronesolutions4108]

Hey Ken (or anybody else on this thread), what is the title of the music tracks used in this video? I know the link to the site is listed but wondered if you would mind sharing the exact titles used here. thank you, sir!

[@KenHeron]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Unfortunately, I can't remember the individual titles of any of the music.

[@37egg]

does the follow me mode on the phantom rely on the signal from the remote to tell it where to go?

[@TrailBlazer46]

Now all you need is a Corn-vertible Ken! Haha. Great vid as always!!

[@KenHeron]

That's a ZINGER!

[@MyGTbackpack]

The road It seem familiar to me, I do paving... Wich part of Tennessee you recorded the video?

[@KenHeron]

McKenzie

[@MyGTbackpack]

@@KenHeron not too far 😅

[@rides8087]

That was a fun vid Ken from Woodstock !

[@chrisalexander2478]

So, as long as you are in a sparely populated area your good to go to operate from a vehicle correct? Is a VO required? Though prudent I dont think that is required under regulation is it? Nice Job Ken :)

[@DoomerONE]

You maize continue to make entertaining and useful videos like this for those of us still developing our proficiency. Corny I know but it does get to the kernel of the subject with flair. Thanks again sir for a great video.

[@ricardopr54]

That was really nice! I haven't try that wth mine yet, but planning on do it soon! On another note, Men, you make me remember how fun it was to drive my beautiful 2006 Mazda RX-8 Shinka Special Edition. Mine was white pearl in color, it was a beautiful car, but I traded in for a 2013 Mazdaspeed3 with the technology package back in 2013... Even though I like my new car too, I miss my RX-8 a lot... Nice video Ken! Thumbs up 👍👍👍 Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 👍👍👍

[@KenHeron]

+ricardopr54 Hello! A fellow Rotary man. Nice! I also had a 2004 when they first came out. The best car ever.

[@SharpStudios0]

Ken if you have an ear for corn puns This one will be a-maize-ing.Great video as always!

[@gulftherapy]

Ken you are quite the daredevil!!! Every time I try follow me mode it doesn't work. Says something about signal not strong enough.

[@KenHeron]

Yes, I lucked out that day.

[@highlifeasFM]

is this v2.0 or no? whats the difference. getting ready to purchase but i need it to follow a car like your video... any suggestions?

[@KenHeron]

Get the 2.0. You'll love it!

[@BonBonBonni]

Great Video 😊

[@ianezy0828]

You are the ‘Kernel’ when it comes to drones :-)

[@KenHeron]

Thanks bud!!

[@billholl52]

Ready Creek Rd. --- Yep, it's purdy out there. Nice flyin....

[@DRONEDIRECTOR]

Love you, love your videos

[@serengetilion]

WOW, that's really beautiful just like you said

[@KenHeron]

Thank you.

[@AlexPina79]

Great job Ken as always, I hope you CORN-tinue with more videos like this one.

[@DroneShots81]

Hi Ken soon I am going to buy the phantom pro plus what do you suggest about the built in screen? Because I saw many videos that then swith to the other controller without the built in screen.

[@KenHeron]

The built-in screen is Android based but won't let you use Android apps. An iPad mini is best for the Phantom 4 Pro.

[@DroneShots81]

I am bit confused about the decision which one to choose from as then the built in is more bright. Why are so important the apps? the dji app is not enough for it? does it has any issues?

[@czwolinski]

As a newbie wannabe, what drone have you flown for training etc Have a friend whom is starting with a Mavic and has only flown it twice in three months because he's a scared of busting it up.

[@l3ongveiw]

czwolinski I personally started with the Phantom 3 Standard. It's perfect for beginners, and at less than half the price of the Mavic, it's a great tool to learn with IMO.

[@ColdWindPhoenix84]

That was freaking cool.

[@karolkorzinski7132]

Hey Ken I just got a phantom, 4 but the image on my tablet constantly cuts out but the controls have full bars of connectivitey

[@FPVphilly]

Ken you almost hit the tree... but you got it up on time... very fun video!!!

[@KenHeron]

I always get it up in time. --LADIES!

[@mohamedhommeida2854]

This is very cool! Thanks

[@Fbabookflipping]

Now that was awesomely cool :)

[@AdrianBearclaw]

Hi Ken, awesome flying! Where did you live before you moved to Tennessee?

[@Sheridantank]

I think there should be a drone that docks to your car to charge and can be used as extra camera systems for vehicle monitoring. It could take off and land on your roof as needed. There’s plenty situations where a higher view or other angles would benefit driving.

[@MrLunithy]

Hey Ken have you seen the Air dog?

[@KenHeron]

No. What's that?

[@tillfromberlin]

just beautiful!!!

[@jonbj6878]

Oh I love how "Garry" is spotting your flight....🤣🤣 lol... Great work Ken, keep it up 👍👍👍 Cheers!!!

[@KenHeron]

Thanks! Gary couldn't be shown in this one for reasons I can't go into. He will return soon!

[@GreenCritiq]

Ken, What brand portable mic did you use for the audio? Your voice sounded very clear? 😊

[@AyeYoJazz]

OMG This is so freaking dope! I have a phantom 4k and I've used it manually but I haven't tried this yet! I've wondered how vloggers/videographers used their drones like this to get shots without controlling them!! YESSSS CAN'T FREAKING WAIIIIT !!

[@KenHeron]

Happy flying!🤓👍

[@burkesdale]

Hey ken....What is the remix name to the pink floyd song at the end please...cant find it on that site :(

[@KenHeron]

Hey bud. There's no Pink Floyd song in that video.

[@burkesdale]

oh sounds like a pink floyd learning to fly remix....the very last song...do you know what it is called then pretty please.

[@jeanperpillant]

Corntinue? Haha! Well I will say I'm curious to try this challenge myself. On a secluded road or area with little to no traffic as well.

[@KenHeron]

Good luck Michael! (Still funny.)

[@ANDREASRIAL]

Good video, have to try the follow mode too

[@KenHeron]

It's fun!

[@qwetry-j2u]

How does it work? Does it use a GPS inside your phone to follow you or it is just a visual tracking system?

[@KenHeron]

It tracks using the controller signal. It follows the controller.
