Childish, I know, but the knowledge that there is a place called Nob End pleases me immensely!

There are a few similarly amusing place names in the local (Greater Manchester) area.

Fantastic!

Apologies for the extremely noob question…

How did you manage the tracking shot when passing over the viaduct, the drone flies to the viaduct, keeps you and the viaduct in the shot passes over and then without any cuts continues flying past?

Thanks and lovely video and subject.

Simple waypoint basically took me 5 mins to input waypoints over the subject then the drone does the rest, more technology than skill, make shot seamless, thanks for comment.

Thank you, I haven’t tried the waypoint feature yet, but in time I certainly will.
Cracking video!

Beautiful location - thanks for sharing

For the future you simply use the aquaduct as your point of interest and in settings of point of interest set the poi at say 5metres
Altitude so that the camera is pointing down at the subject and set the waypoints to be pointing at the poi, thats how you get the drone flying forward then backwards, hipe that is helpful.
