The Heads of Ayr Scotland

[@JefPersonalVideos]

Great drone footage of the amazing aerial aerial view of the place thanks for sharing

[@LincolnCid]

Awesome! Big like my friend!✌️👍👏🤛

[@TheMadmacs]

hehe thanks, it was a great day out,

[@ladyintheskyuk]

Yes.I want to do this. Fantastic footage and flying 👏 👌

[@asafproduction1179]

Pemandangan yang sangat indah, bukit bukit dan pantai sangat mengagumkan, suka sekali

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks my previous vid is a bit more exciting hehe thanks , mas exciting yung dati kong vid

[@bugsy742]

2:22 is some nice drift wood- glad you did a flyby 👍 and the 3:06 yaw around the castle was just sublime 🤗

[@TheMadmacs]

hehe thanks, the driftwood was giant, like half a tall tree, and the big yaw is kinda my thing hehehe,

[@outofayrshire143]

Wow!!! 😮 I live just a few miles from there but have never see the Heads of Ayr or Greenan from that view, absolutely stunning drone footage and control (I wish I could fly my drone like that) That was a Sunday morning treat…thanks, Steven 😊👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, it was a brilliant wee day out

[@Rcschim]

Beautiful scenery and lines flown there! Driftwood looking nice as well. The ruins look very cool there on the beach as well. Thanks for the flight, have a good weekend, greets, Mario

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thanks man, it was a great wee day out, i say wee, but it was 13.5 mile walk ! but it didnt feel too bad.

[@Rcschim]

@@TheMadmacs you're crazy dedicated when it comes to walking/ hiking to an fpv spot!

[@TheMadmacs]

@@Rcschim yeah i only planned to do 6 miles to the castle, which isnt too bad, couple of hours, but after the castle it was all beach walking which is a bit tougher, but i still didnt get too tired till about 10 miles, then i sat down out of the wind and had some coffee and choclate and a long rest, it was a long day but i didnt feel bad the next day, not like glencoe, that destroyed me a bit hehehe, i went 3 times and the last time was the toughest and it took 10 days for my knees to stop complaining hehehe. the trick is, go slow, i mean super duper slow, look for small steps and avoid the big ones no matter how silly it looks or feels, use a walking pole, i mean really use it deliberately to pull yourself up, and try to rest before you get muscle tired, lots of little rests and a few big ones, you can make it up almost anything.

[@Rcschim]

@@TheMadmacs sounds like you should go the Jacob's path in Spain like Coelho;) but with a drone in your backpack! Would make for a nice video series:)

[@TheMadmacs]

@@Rcschim hehe, i prefer the camp for a few days at a spot, i'm looking at a mountain called suilven in the far north of scotland, people camp on top of it but i dont think i could carry all my gear up there, but it would be so cool to fly both sides of the mountain at sunrise.

[@johnnymac26]

Bloomin magic love the cliff dive up then down crackin brilliant as always mate 👍 and the wee dance round the tree magic.

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks man, i actually thought i didnt have enough good footage for a vid, literally just threw this together, some cool music and click. didnt even try to fine tune the edit, and somehow lucked out with a nice vibe.

[@transylvanianvistas]

Great drone footage and amazing aerial view. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍 Subbed and Liked. 👍👍👍

[@Rubber21]

Pure Gallus.I met you in the field in Gartcosh mate one night you were flyin,great to see your footage,thanks for sharing it.

[@TheMadmacs]

hey man, thanks for commenting, i say i dont care about all that but its brilliant to get a thumbs up and a comment.

[@JFG_01]

Nice location, flying and tune Mac & a beautiful little ruin at the end ! thanks for sharing 👌

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, its a beautiful little place, the light from the sea is different somehow.

[@ThereseLefebvreComposerPianist]

Stunning visuals... such excellence in quality overall.... the world is simply wonderful... scenery is captured on camera in such a tasteful way... the combined music finishes the whole picture to perfection 🙏🌹

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, i came here as a child on my holidays many times. so its very special to me. i'm so glad so many people enjoyed this, i almost didnt post it.

[@cesrey]

OOOHHH Amazing wonder and stunning flight views💥, thanks very much Madmacs

[@TheMadmacs]

hey, thanks, it was a great day out, just an hour from the city.

[@robodrone5662]

Stunning shots 🤩

[@TheMadmacs]

hey robo, thanks

[@argyleskyfpv461]

Amazing flight my friend. What a beautiful place to fly!!!

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thanks man, yeah it was a beautiful day.

[@seb-depp]

Great cliffs, nice flying!

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, yeah i wanted to go further but i was worried about the tide cutting me off.

[@MultiMarooned]

Breathtaking...... you should have done a swoop over Ayr itself - just for us misplaced scots ??

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, yeah i'd need to get clearance to fly over ayr, and even then it would probably be straight up and down. even at the heads of ayr i'm super cautious and only go up a couple of hundred feet at most with the airport only 7 or 8 miles away, any small planes who have a problem would try to get back along the coast, its legal after 5 miles, but its always sensible to know and understand the landscape around you when you fly, i actually got lost last night in old vids about ayr, its a truly ancient place and some of the footage from the last 100 years was fascinating to see.

[@BillJohnstonRambler]

Brilliant video never walked around the Heads of Ayr and the castle on the cliff was a bit of icing on the cake really enjoyed watching it ,but would be hard going walking any distance on the sand👍🌞⛅

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thanks bill, when i reached the castle i suddenly realised that i could be cut off by the tide where i was sitting, a high sandbank, but around the heads its more obvious, i only did about 4 or 5 miles on the sand and a lot of that was damp compacted sand but it was still a big relief to get onto the path again. 13.5 miles, even though it was flat it was a long day, got really lucky with the weather,

[@discover-montenegro]

Lovely scenery, those cliff's are stunning. Well done 🥰🥰🤗

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thankyou, i wish i'd filmed a little of the town too

[@vs123]

Drone flight footage beautiful

[@TheMadmacs]

thankyou, i had a great day there

[@libmananchannel]

Hello “Madmacs FPV”! Thank you for showing us such a wonderful video! I feel so happy! I'm looking forward to your next work! Have a nice day!

[@TheMadmacs]

hehehe thankyou, it is the place of my childhood holidays, i hope i have a more spectacular video next time, the scottish weather is difficult to make plans.

[@IslaVision3]

Precioso muy currada las explicaciones…👏👏👏🤘😘

[@TheMadmacs]

thankyou, it was a great little day out, its only 1 hour from the city but it is another time and place.

[@ladyintheskyuk]

Fantastic 👌 👌 👌 Beautiful

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, i'm surprised so many people liked this one, i thought it was too personal, a little momento of my day out and the place i holidayed as a child. thanks everybody. ps. i will catch up on everybodys vids soon, just uploading my vlog vid and it takes me agesto edit on this old computer.

[@TailSpinRCSpain]

Beautiful !

[@TheMadmacs]

hey tailspin, thanks man, i wasn't even gonna try and make a vid, the flying was a bit duff, but for the families i chatted to and the overall little momento for myself, i just threw this together, didnt even work on the edit hehehe.

[@SunriseWaterMedia]

That was magical! 👀👍

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thanks man, its the beaches i played on as a child, so its saturated with memories for me, just being there was great fun, but flying there was like stepping out of time.

[@jimthorleydronefootage]

Fabulous flight ✈️

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks man, great day out, so lucky with the weather hehe

[@loveexploringscotland]

Wow, beautifully captured and the music gave me goosebumps. Brilliant flying!

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks yeah this music really is the vid, i think i had it in mind before i even thought of going to ayr for the day,

[@JauneMacReady]

Excellent flying 😃👍❤️

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, it was a nice day out

[@jdrone]

Nice to meet you. Bro. The scenery here is so beautiful. The boundary between the sea and the mountains was freely moved by FPV drones. Wonderful video. We will communicate often in the future ^^

[@TheMadmacs]

hiya, thanks, i am already subbed to you hehehe, look at my mountain vids before this one

[@dreamingorca]

Very nice!

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, it was a great wee day out.

[@Stormin13]

Cool video - awesome location - fpv paradise

[@TheMadmacs]

hey hiya man, thanks yeah, this is the place we would go to as kids when the city got too hot to bear, a million memories running up and down these beaches

[@bugsy742]

Stunning 😍 loved the low run 😎✊🤝

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, i almost didnt post it, barely even edited it, just that i talked to a lot of people that day and i felt i had to show what i was up to hiking 6 miles along the coast

[@bugsy742]

Can’t believe you had a dip in confidence- this is absolutely bloody incredible footage and flying buddy! Seriously good!🔥👍🤝🤝🤝

[@TheMadmacs]

@@bugsy742 i sort of see it now, but i made very little effort to edit this, just grabbed the best clips and this fantastic music, i kinda see it, bit shocked people liked it so much

[@ScotlandandMe]

Fantastic mate, braw viewing 🤟

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks man, it was just one of those days, desperate to get out, weather looked dodgy, but i took a chance and had a really great day walking down the coast, bit further than i imagined i could,

[@ScotlandandMe]

@@TheMadmacs awesome day you got for it mate...magic!!

[@pauldirects]

have family there... lovely stuff mate

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, yeah i stopped and made coffee by some beachfront houses, looks like a wonderful place to live, the sunsets are just incredible.

[@kennethsandsaerialfilming161]

This is great.

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, somehow that music gives it much more weight, i dont even know why.

[@eyeintheskydrone4k]

Excellent video Mac you OK with me adding this to new map?

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks, yeah of course,

[@TheMadmacs]

need to add notes on the tide, that particular bit the tide can blcok you going north very quickly, to the south too but youhave more time to get to a beach which has a road leading to the top, and dont be fooled these cliffs are not climable even the less steep bits.

[@julesdingle]

getting good at this

[@TheMadmacs]

hey thanks man, i really didnt think i had any footage, pretty much did a quick grab of the best clips and stuck on this music and ta da'h hehe, i've gave up using 4k 60fps, my computer just cant handle it, you should have a look at '' the gorge in the hidden valley'' amazing place i seem to be the only person who noticed it.

[@julesdingle]

@@TheMadmacs are you able to program the flight? that would help smooth out some of the transitions. When you find the cash to upgrade buy a i5 Mac, and FCP has a pretty good auto stabilise. But yes your work is looking like it is almost animated

[@TheMadmacs]

@@julesdingle hehe no i can't prgram it, its all live and completely manual, the software most fpv quad pilots use is betaflight, it has some basic ability with gps but i dont have a module fitted for gps. there is a system for dji, two ground stations i think that can fly either a programmed or a manual flight and repeat it over and over with programmable variations etc, for movies. i use free software called gyroflow or reelsteadygo which is now owned by gopro. both very good, but i tend to use it on low settings. i do a lot of twitching hehehe but i do try to fly as smooth as possible, these quads are made to be very fast and are a handful to fly slowly like this, there are quads made especially for flying smooth and slowish called cinewhoops, they are also safe to fly around people. the other issue i have right now is i can't afford to replace anything, so i'm flying a bit scared, which doesnt help with the smoothness hehehe.

[@TheMadmacs]

@@julesdingle heres some raw footage and more extreme flying in a practise session, i could program the quad to be less reactive and smoother responding to the stick inputs but i kinda prefer the twitchy feel, feels more connected, and sometimes i do fly silky smooth, but not often. wind, and mistakes, or nerves catch me out. ... there is also a video, i think its my 2022 year round up vid that i show some raw footage of me flying out to an island beside the forth rail bridge, then compare that to the vid i posted, had to stabilize and use horizon lock to get any footage from that day hehehe. anyway this is raw, kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4qqioKPnN-lsLs

[@julesdingle]

@@TheMadmacs even more impressive .. I was thinking of it as cinematographic style and how to utilise it.

[@mathewgriffith6646]

"Promo SM" 👍

[@TheMadmacs]

thanks for watching

[@Mario-Drone-FPV]

OOOHHH Amazing wonder and stunning flight views💥, thanks very much Madmacs
