Looking kinda bad over there for you all.
We just had 40°C here.
And a lot of corn crop lost.
Looking at 41°C tomorrow or Tuesday

Gonna watch this one tomorrow, bandwidth is cr@ptastic tonight. We had a few hours of light rain today, the forest fires that are inching our way have been slowed ... they say they are under control now.. There are some much larger ones about 30 miles out (50km) which are currently out of control. At least we could open the windows again today, no more smoke or smell of fire. (for now) . Crazy life, last summer it was so wet here most of our vegetable garden was ruined. 40... dang, too hot for anyone. So its normally a little wetter in the Netherlands? (aside from the water levels!)

Hi Fly4joyNice video, sickno. Yes it is unusual dry in NL, but on the other hand you could also say we have a perfect flying season
Where is that building located around 2:00 in your vid?
Actually it is more theb unusual. The summers of The Netherlands are humid. But its so dry that even the freshwater current is not strong enough anymore to withstand the saltwater current. This week it is hotter then last week and nobody knows when its gonna rain again.
That building is located in noordwijk to the rightside where the dunes start. Easy to locate. I used it to 'dramatize' the drought.
Hope it worked?
You dont have to convince me, I am living in the Netherlands. I am suffering from the same climate as you
The building was a nice addition for dramatizing

Wowwww... Nope 30C overhere. Normally we would have 2 weeks 25C. And then 3 weeks rain. But this season its 2 months 25-30C with no rain. So yeah it does have a impact on our climate.

Keep practicing. Eventually you will develop enough courage to fky between trees. Besides the spark is a flying brick, it can take a punch.
I will soon make the fails and crashes in the woods. Its quite alot you know
Nicely done! Bummer the sun kept messing with the camera exposure in the forest shots but nice flying! I was in The Netherlands 3 weeks ago for a cycling trip. Beautiful country!

Thank you northwood, any tips for documenting woods [emoji14] ?Very cool video, well done
Sure, watch out for bears and cougars!
These days its wise to be careful with any motorized (gas burning) vehicles when venturing into the woods. There was a fire started in a farmer's field about 60km from us on the weekend, a spark (no pun intended) from a tractor's exhaust apparently. We are keeping our ATV/quads out of the forest while it is so dry, just in case.

Sorry about your filter but the polar pro looks like a great filter. I cycled between Utrech, Gorinchem, Gouda and Woerden. It was beautiful!

I live in Montreal Canada. Transport Canada regulations for drones are fairly strict so its a bit hard to find places to fly. It’s ironic because we have so much green space out here.
