[QUOTE="floridabeachbum, post: 107969, member: 17977"] A short video of some great #kitesurfing (and not-so-great #drone handling on my part!) Location: Dunedin Causeway, Dunedin, Florida. Date: December 1st, 2019 Drone: "Robin Sparkles" - a DJI Spark Music: "Laguna" by Raccy, via Epidemic Sound Edited in: Adobe Premiere Pro Wifey: "We need family photos for the Christmas Calendars." So, we headed out for a family photo session to Dunedin Causway, because we're beach bums. Santa Hats in front of palm trees is just our speed. And yes, we got plenty of those shots. But I couldn't help but spot these kitesurfers (or kiteboarders depending on your preference) having a blast. Yes, color me jealous. Of course, I wanted to put the drone up and chase some video! But there's a huge problem with this - kites like it windy but drones definitely don't. Theoretically, the wind speeds were at the top end of this little drone's capabilities, and yes, she struggled a bit at times, but overall I'm really pleased with her performance. I only had one "High Wind Warning", and one moment of pure panic (Sport mode pointing the wrong way - thought she'd decided to self-destruct!). Although I normally solo flight, I had a solid spotter this time, and it helped a ton, and we really did have a great time getting these shots. Sometimes, you just gotta go for it! If you know these two, please connect me so I can give proper credit / tags. #Dunedin #Causeway & #HoneymoonIsland #FL #Florida #KiteSurfers #KiteBoarders [MEDIA=youtube]pdG2lAEBk2s[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
