Hi Ron, I love the Island so many beautiful spots to film and fly. I spent many summers there as a kid camping at Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Campground and fishing,great memories!

Thought I would try flying over open water today. I was terrified that it would fall out of the sky

It does get the short hairs tingling flying it out and wondering if it's coming back.

Thanks for sharing.

How do you get over the fear of flying over open water?

The more successful flights you have where everything goes as planned the more confidence you will gain. Don't let the 0.1% of crash posts here get you down. Think of the 99.9% of successes!

I had a friend loose a Mavic Pro off the coast of Portugal. Turned out to be an ESC failure and DJI did replace it. but that did scare me a little. Now check all my props and give it a good pre flight check before i take off
