Using the DJI Spark with a motorcycle - an idiot’s guide Part 2!

[@al2474]

I never thought I could laugh as much as I did after your first drone video but you smashed that record with this one , absolutely crying 😂😂😂 , you have so much patience you deserve a medal . on a more serious note the end footage was well worth it , well done that man .

[@duncanblanchard334]

Priceless, vintage Crumble here. Actually made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂, Rule 1, keep drone away from fast flowing water as they get confused by it, Rule 2, get someone else to fly the drone as you gracefully ride by, Rule 3, never sell Dave......ever..👍

[@sproutandkidneysoup2296]

The first 5 minutes or so is one of the funniest things I've seen on KZbin. It had me laughing like a kid. Great entertainment.

[@usingtube]

This is the funniest 15min of the last 5 years 😂

[@tobortine]

The first 5 minutes I couldn't breath for laughing and when the drone hit that tree I almost wet myself. Absolutely brilliant and that last bit of drone footage was pretty good, I particularly liked the shot of the weir that was very good. Thanks Crumble, top video.

[@suetaylor5186]

Me too I was hysterical!

[@aidebethune]

Even funnier than the last one. Sparky is like a naughty child!

[@edpikestone6800]

No technical bollocks from me about how to fly a drone - that was pure comedy. Keep it coming!

[@wiganjon1971]

Rise of the robots...this is how it starts,Sparky is becoming self aware and doesn't want to film your shenanigans 🤯

[@pajownik]

That was seriously amusing mate. Even more then part one. I admire your cool when you're upset. Congrats on the final result.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Welcome to my world Mr C - the world of drone faffery......!! Well done on getting that tracking shot to work - I've not managed that on the bike yet....not sure I can be arsed to keep trying though it's so much faff.....but you know that. Nice vid as ever sir! All the best - TMF

[@NeilMendham]

I had a Spark for about a year, bloody thing drove me nuts. One day it did a "fly-away", for about 30 seconds I imagined it landing on some persons head and being sued for a zillion $$'s. Luckily, it was just returning home. A month ago I got a call from CASA (Australian Civil Aviation authority) - I'd posted a video showing me flying the drone over a public space and apparently I was in violation of the rules. I sold my drone a week later. Good luck with the journey Crumble, and good on ya for getting out in the cold to do vid's! T-Shirt ordered!

[@natjones4833]

Best thing you've done in ages Crumble. Had me laughing all the way through. Pressure + Crumble = laughs. Well done buddy.

[@markullyett]

Best channel on KZbin. Love it mate

[@R1doorbar]

10 out of 10 for dedication and perseverance! And bloody hilarious again. Great vid as always Crumble!

[@BH-cy9tb]

Ok I don’t really watch thru many videos to the end but this one had me intrigued. I had to watch entire video. Very good and entertaining, keep up the good work.

[@joshmarklowitz3243]

Great job. Looks like your getting the hang of it now. Thanks for sticking with it and for being real. Excited for the next video!

[@TheHumanHonda]

Loving the Wednesday adventures with the countryside, bike, and some basic camping provisions...happy times 👍

[@paulwilliams2284]

The best Dji Spark video I've seen yet mate! Fooking hilarious. Was pissing my self!

[@Nerb1]

You need to make a bracket to keep the controller on your handlebars so you can always see the screen.

[@Banditmanuk]

I've fixed my drone flying incompetence by passing the controller to the wife: She's always fu##ing right. 👍👍

[@Martin_IPL5990]

That was hysterical. Your apparent lack of control over something that largely fly's itself is truly spectacular….roll on the next attempt.

[@suetaylor5186]

Absolutely fantastic xxx have not laughed so much for ages....how did you stay so calm. Crying Now feeling sorry for you....all the emotions. ....mild peril....then triumph! Well done

[@SorryIwasntListening]

F me Crumble, this was funny..... and production values approaching adiquate. ... music, tracking, split screen etc.... you deserve triple the subs. X

[@mutt9634]

Drone footage looks great, excellent scenes at the end. Hope it's not to much of a headache for you, after all you are the star of the show! Anyway enough trumpet blowing, looking forward to seeing the AT and Dave in action. Thank you for the good work.

[@Jubular]

You're so bloody entertaining, mate. I love the level of whinge.

[@hobnob15]

That is as funny as - keep them coming crumble, I think 'sparky' is going to give you more headaches but there's some great footage at the end 👍🏻

[@joshbro99k96]

Pmsl. I think the issue was that instead of Profile mode you've toggled through Faff mode, Suicide mode and Rigmarole mode. I wanted to stamp on it for you.

[@philhunt9297]

Best laugh I've had in months Was half expecting Crumble to finally get profile mode only to end up on his arse in a deep puddle..... bet he did but doesn't want his viewing count to go viral - only joking

[@BarnsleyBob]

Can you do a voice for your drone next time you talk to it? A drone version of Dave?

[@RebelRides]

Is it wrong that I think the Spark should sound like Jimmy Krankie 😂

[@axellevp7544]

This has to happen!

[@martinlloyd7563]

Tenacious C, this is hilarious, but worth it for some of the most spectacular footage on Y tube. One critic though is the drone seems to make it look as though you are riding at walking pace 😂😂😂😂😂

[@andrewshore262]

Jeeez Crumble those last two drone vids, did you write the scripts yourself or did you use a professional comedy writer? Lol 😂 best vids I’ve seen in ages 👍👍👍

[@chrisgibson4235]

Brilliant work again crumble, the fly over the weir at the end was brilliant. 👍

[@1066Sussex]

Laughed when it never followed you Crumble but the water shots and music made up for it. You're a semi pro

[@motoventure_6938]

3:23 I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad that the fence wasn't electric, that would have been comedy gold. Hoping your get to grips with the drone Crumble! Don't think I could personally be doing with the faffery with a drone on a bike though.

[@DroneRich1]

Love your drone vids, You are so funny, Sparky is misbehaving and it's hilarious to see you bollocking it (I do the same to my drone when no one is looking) Please do more drone videos.

[@Zeebad_1st]

In the first half, the drone was searching for an expert drone flyer, you know, a man outstanding in his field.

[@BikesDrones]

Droning is like golf, one good shot gets you coming back for more frustration. So much effort for those magic seconds. That last shot was gorgeous.

[@jencam6854]

Love this new direction of videos, brilliant and still very funny 😂

[@twistngrip4596]

Where are you Crumble? I need some Dave vids, it's been a while 😂

[@TheCrumble]

kevin bailey it has been a while! I am actually thinking of selling Dave. Don’t tell him though-he’ll go mental 😂

[@twistngrip4596]

Oh no! 😱 Gonna miss ur altered ego known as Dave. Glad to hear you're still around though buddy. All the best 👊🏻

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Crumble the Conquerer. Take that Sparky!

[@itchybeard8779]

Fantastic vid mate was proper hooked! You will be a master of the drone just keep at it and keep posting all your fails 😉👍

[@thedog77]

Once again well funny Mr C but stick with it your getting better. 👍

[@ianlawrie919]

Most entertaining! not at Mr. Crumbles expense of course.

[@Stuff_And_Things_0]

Best series of videos on youtube :D

[@iangrimshaw1]

Reminds me a bit of when I was training my lab to be a gun dog. I've always thought a drone shot following my bike through Pleasley Vale (just up the road from you) would make good footage but I'm not sure if I could handle the agro. Love your vids!

[@WatermarquePaul]

Great video Crumble, made me laugh but you got some decent results in the end.

[@andrewcrofts531]

Cracking!! Success at last. Keep with the drone matey, you'll soon get to grips with it all. Footage so far looks great... ATB Andy

[@motowoody66]

Omg pmfsl 🤣🤣🤣 was going to give you 2 pieces of advice 1) Don’t lose sparky and 2) Don’t crash sparky 😱😱😱🤣 Keep up the good work, just loving the vids 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@MannyCAM]

Great choice of video clips and music! Thx for sharing.

[@squidge135]

Alright crumble I have a little set of “stick covers “ for when the remote. Is in it’s storage bag .. maybe £3 of eBay ... invest in a set or message me and come borrow them when your next passing langar 👍. Epic video as always !!!!

[@Nek0a]

Yet another great video! A potential idea for holding the controller. I thought perhaps getting a phone mount or iPad mount to grip the controller which you could have sitting on the bars?

[@metaldog7128]

You could put some sticky back Velcro on the back of the controls and the top of the tank bag , then the control sticks won't get moved and you can still glance down and see what your batteries doing. You got some nice footage in the end 👍

[@AndyManCam]

AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA! It's funny because it'S all TRUE!! I think I had the exact same experience! After running out of swearwords, batteries and will to carry on I trampled the little b@5t4rd into a puddle and walked away like I'd never seen it. Nice work actually getting to play ball at the end Crumble. You're a better man than I!

[@paullee6663]

Can't you just bungee / Roc Strap the controller to the top box? Awesome video thou... laughter, then felt your pain, so felt a bit guilty laughing, then success...what more could you ask for in a video? Lesser men cut out all the faff.... and show all the 'good bits' .Don't leave Sparky alone with Dave.... he's a bad influence that one! Good to see you enjoying your day off in the week!

[@outsidethewirevet]

Aww, yes...the life of a drone user. Great shots at the end too!

[@Bikerbug2020]

Hilarious.... Have a cup of Tea and a Scone and call it a day. Cool castle....Drones are fun and frustrating.. have fun

[@DJJammyD]

When you put the drone in your tank bag... your moving the sticks 😂

[@mikeleonard4871]

Thanks for the laugh. You are getting there though. Good drone age clips at the end. Better start on the ulcer tablets with all that stress :-)

[@colinthornton1378]

Hi Crumble, were you at the top of Stathern hill today with Dave ? 16/6/19

[@TheCrumble]

Colin Thornton Yes I was! Just stopping to dry off after getting a soaking coming out of Nottingham. Were you on the Beemer that passed me?

[@colinthornton1378]

Yes it was, as I went past and saw you I thought that is definitely the Crumble!! Dave was looking cool 😎

[@williamzoom]

Dave sabotaged the drone out of jealously!

[@byronswift9879]

did you try removing the control sticks when you put the controller in the bag? that would keep the bag from pushing on the sticks. You can use the controller without the sticks in.

[@Mrfish2015]

I bought one thinking I’m going to have great channel footage , I’ve done 10 minutes since 2017 dropped a record box on it (showing my age) and now it just falls out of the sky .. so you’re doing well

[@potatoking9943]

How? LOL

[@CodgerBiker]

Is that Prince Philip’s old drone? Or are you...? No, that would be silly 😉

[@d3fenc367]

I laughed so much at your first Spark meets Africa Twin vid, I did some wee in my pants. Now I’ve just seen this sequel and I’ve had to consider buying Tena nappies for the over 50’s. :-) If it’s any consolation, I’ve had a Spark for over a year now and I love it, but the active track is always hit and miss in conditions where there’s lots of direct sunlight. I tried to film myself riding my Honda Deauville (stop that snickering!) and gave up. But having said that, I find that setting up the active track frame thingy against a background with strong contrast between you and the background helps, IF you remain filming with the same background conditions. There is a limitation of the Spark with active track, as it doesn’t allow you to use manual exposure settings (it defaults to Auto exposure in Active Track and you can't override this). Do what I’ve done. Upgrade to a Mavic 2 Pro… and buy a proper bike like a Crosstourer :-) Looking forward to the next instalment…

[@hankwojo]

I think you need to construct some sort of shelf that the controller could sit in and still be in view. I think a good place would be right on top of the top case on the rear of the bike where the antenna could be in clear view and the joysticks not fucked with, but somehow strapped in securely.

[@infernalcontraptions]

Cried I laughed so much - brilliant👍🏻

[@TheCcponyboy]

"And here we are me and Dave on the Ring Road!! " Totally bloomin' faff... Did like the shot of Crumble Towers though..

[@RebelRides]

I think I'll wait until the tech improves. When you can get a Star Wars style, anti-gravity Imperial military drone with an atomic engine that never needs recharging and does exactly what you want it to, maybe, I'll buy one!

[@2Old4Toys]

The footage highlights at the end is quite fantastic though!

[@earlebacciochi9796]

Strap a GoPro to a pigeon! Lot cheaper 😁👍

[@sharky09000]

Lol😉

[@wallabybob3020]

Spielberg should be quaking in his boots Crumble!!

[@davexs]

Ah! yes the joys of a drone.......I think I am 2 steps behind you on drone use. Like the shots at the end.

[@dirtyden1701]

Forkin hilarious! ... Well done tho, perseverance paid off! Good vid 👍

[@mototravelduo3955]

Great video thinking about getting one of these myself. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@purplemongoose4887]

Wheatley? Is that you? Great shots at the end

[@TerryG7wrs]

Crumble could you get a tablet holder that will fix to the handlebars and place the controller in that ?

[@matrixcoder87]

Love your perrols of sparky vids, thankyou very much

[@Rajvirdee]

You are awesome- my life is complete 👍🏼

[@humptydumpty9177]

What you need is the Phantom drone remote control handlebar attachment made by Triumph at two million quid a throw. BTW, what's the name of the drone and what's its voice sound like?

[@sleepindragon179]

Dunno if this is useful advice, but you may wanna get to grips with the learning to fly the drone bit before jumping on your bike and running away from it. I dunno if talking to it helps but makes for entertaining viewing. Cheers Crumble.

[@paulmarshall1083]

Technology tamed crumble 😂😂

[@TheDervMan]

😂 you have a lot more patience than me!

[@azlong4596]

Crumble and the adventures of Grumble Bee!

[@cagednm69]

the funniest sh*t i've seen on your channel..

[@MannyCAM]

Definitely the bag moving the sticks. Lol

[@9004allen]

I use a quad lock thing stuck to the back of the spark controller then clip on to your bars then iPhone in jacket pocket on a normal length lead (you could just pop yours in to the tank bag) 👍

[@johnward3490]

Bloody ell crumble you have the patience of a saint . I would have launched it into the hedge only for the bastard to follow me home . Great stuff at the end though 👍

[@sharky09000]

Keep Calm & Drone on with Crumble😉

[@pixiesful]

Ave a word with itchy boots she has it down to a fine art.

[@P6_7R_Nick]

Eyup Crumble, I do like fields, but I go to the 'I love fields' channel to get my fix 😆, I come to the Crumble channel for some motorcycle action 🤘🤙👌. I'm sure the drone footage will come out just right (eventually), it normally does when it's a right fucker (I blanked that word out until you said fuck in the video) to start with. Keep the practice going buddy. You'll be a legend 🎅 like Santa 😉 Was that a bit of green laning on Dave???

[@Womanwolfrider]

Mr expert now, impressed 😊

[@HalfdeadRider]

Did you say 2018, I listened a few times but I'm still not sure if you said '18 or '19 lol

[@GaryFÓBrien]

Am sure ‘e said 18

[@planetpeckham1]

It’s behind you!

[@caroldave4037]

If you had got right straight off I'd of skipped but entertainment is 12/10 cheers from dave

[@stableslayers3958]

Where r u mr c. All ok bud?

[@TheCrumble]

Stable Slayers All good thanks for asking mate 👍🏻 Might be back on YT in 2023 😂

[@nigelren3719]

Can you get a bus-stroke appendage for it?

[@pvtaitchison]

"Stay there mate".... voice control?? 😁

[@exeterrider]

Liked that, Good laugh. Well done : )

[@peetee5229]

Always fancied one but having see yours I wouldn’t have the patience, it would end up under the back wheel crushed😩

[@thekingoftheworld9553]

Maybe the drone have him PTSD!

[@MrMrhughesy]

calibrate the bloody GPS Someone help poor Crumble Also, you tried just leaving the transmitter in the bush?
