Epic, now I need to get an FPV, is that a nose dive shot off the high tower or the camera pointing down with rapid reduction in height?

FPV doesn’t work like that, the camera is generally fixed

Yep, you fly it, pointing the whole quad. You go to minimal throttle so you are in freefall.

Flippin’ 'eck Caroline, that’s some good shots. How tall are thise big boys?? I dont know that I’d fancy libing at the top, with the l8ft out of action. Well flown :wink:

Great shot was there no run off at the bottom so you could of held the shot long/closer to the floor ??. That wouldnt fancy climibing over the fence to retrieve :grimacing: it

Yeah, all the building work was in the way so I decided to hold the drop as long as I dared. The DollyFly25 is a sub 250gm cinewhoop so not super powerful and I was trying to avoid the propwash effects.

Hmmm 4s ciniwhoop you would of struggled to pull out of a deep dive with that, tried it myself with a protek25 and ended in tears :rofl::rofl:

I had done some test dives in open fields so I knew roughly how had to push it.

Give the cooling tower at Willington a go :+1:t3:

Thank you :slight_smile:

Awesome - total jelly legs dive I’m sure! :face_with_peeking_eye:

The 8ft fences around places like this always make me nervous too.

Thanks! Indeed, I knew if the quad went down in the working area that would be it lost to me :slight_smile:
