This was shot on a clients property in early March 2024 as a first attempt at aerial footage over a forest canopy. In post editing I tried to cut out some of the time spent just hovering around and making adjustments to the camera - part of the learning process I guess. There was a tower line at the start which I was concerned about, especially its height and about possible signal interference, but it appeared I needn't have worried.
The take off at the start was cool as the drone rose through the trees. The ending was interesting as well as it settled into the forest canopy. The fade out occurred just before it got snagged in a red maple about 55 feet up. With a friend assisting I climbed a ladder with a long pole. I got to the top, however, about the same time the drone (ranger) decided to fall to the ground anyway. We both survived to fly another day!
The drone used was a DJI Mini2 which I have used for over a year and will continue to use, maybe until just after the 5 is alive. We'll see. Oh, and see if you see me and my truck somewhere in the video. Let me know and I will send you a gift of great value - my congratulations!
