Video of Flying Scotsman or not as the case was

So the weekend just gone the flying Scotsman was running on the The Tyne Valley line where I live. Had done a reccy a couple of weeks before hand found the perfect spot, got everything set up, drone up into position waited for the train, which turned up loco hauled as it broke down at Carlisle, did a perfect panning job until it disappeared, only to realise that I had forgot to press the start button on the video, the prime mistake, dick and head come to mind

Happens to the best of us. Bad luck. But at least you remembered to take the gimbal cover off :wink:

Another thing I have done when videoing is forget to stop the video on return and shut the drone off.

That makes the whole video disappear.:frowning:

I think with a high degree of certainty that, that will happen to me as well

Sounds like the flying Scotsman was grounded. Think I must have the best 3 hobbies going…Model Railways/Photography and UAV’S…though I only model the Southern Railway(1938-1975 and NSE (1982-2004

I am building a list of things NOT to do here! :wink:
