    Friday Night Lights - High School Football Wisconsin

    Filming this gave me chills seeing as I played on this very field a decade ago. My father was/is a coach and the field is named after his father. I hope you enjoy!

    Minnesota Vikings corn maze

    There are several corn mazes in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, and the Twin Cities Harvest Festival and Corn Maze happened to pay tribute to the Minnesota Vikings with its maze this year. Here's a short video I put together of the maze.

    Mysterious underwater creature caught on video by drone - what is that thing???

    Hey guys, was reviewing footage when I spotted this 'thing' swimming across the river. So I made a little video in hopes that someone might be able to tell what it is - cuz I sure as heck don't know!

    Droning the Minnesota State Fair

    My company became the first ones to get permission to fly drones at the Minnesota State Fair (the fair is a pretty big deal up here in Minnesota). Before this year, they'd been hesitant to use drones for anything. We shot a bunch of footage of the fairgrounds before the fair opened yesterday...

    So I started a Drone Service: OmniDrone Aerial Video & Photography

    What's up guys! My name is Austin and I'm the owner of OmniDrone Aerial located in Wisconsin. My aim is to be the gold standard for aerial video and aerial photography in all of western Wisconsin and the greater Twin Cities area (Minneapolis & St. Paul, MN). I just wanted to drop in and say...

    Aerial history of Minneapolis

    My company just released this project that documents the history of Minneapolis on the 150th anniversary of the city. It's a bit long (~15 minutes), but I think pilots here will enjoy it. It's a mix of current-day drone footage and historic videos/images of the same buildings to show how the...

    Video of unique village in Minnesota

    This past weekend, I was asked to fly at the Little Log House Prairie Village in Hastings, Minnesota. I had never heard of it before, but I was glad I had the chance to fly there. It's a unique venue where over 40 buildings were moved there and restored, including a church from the 1890s...

    University of Minnesota athletic complex construction

    Flew a few weeks ago at the University of Minnesota campus. They're building a new football practice facility, as well as a few other athletic buildings. Hoping they'll have us back out again to capture more footage as the progress continues. Here's the video.

    Flying drones at Minnesota sports stadiums

    Our company has been lucky enough to fly drones at just about every major sports stadium in Minneapolis/St. Paul (while working in conjunction with the teams). Here's a recap of some of the footage we've captured. You'll notice a lack of Target Field, as the Twins are the only team in town that...

    Flying in an NHL arena

    The Minnesota Wild asked my company to fly inside their arena, the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, to get some cool shots for one of their playoff hype videos. That video hasn't been edited yet but I took this dronie in the arena, since how often does that opportunity come along?!?

    Historic brewery in Minnesota (P4 in 4K)

    I've always thought the old Schmidt Brewing building in St. Paul looked cool. So yesterday (a perfect March day), I took the Phantom 4 over there and captured some footage. Here's the end result.

    Target Field in Minneapolis — 1 week until Opening Day!

    The Minnesota Twins might be terrible again this year, but at least they've got a beautiful stadium! (Pic taken with a Phantom 4)

    Drone Super Ball

    I have seen the Minneapolis skyline many ways, but this is a new one. Check out this "AirVūz Super Ball" production and let me know what you think. I am guessing those pilots (and production team) had a fun time with this one. Check it out here: Drone Super Ball

    Forestville

    Forestville is a ghost town in southern Minnesota. It began as a pioneer settlement in the 1850s and was a thriving community. In 1868, the railroad came to the area, but it bypassed Forestville. Residents began moving to more prosperous communities and Forestville gradually declined. By 1899...

    Whitetail Woods Regional Park

    We took the quad to the park last weekend. Here's the result.

    Twin Cities MN

    I just got a phantom 3 pro and was wondering if there are any active people in the Twin Cities. I found an older thread, but it has been quiet for awhile. Anybody around that wants to meet up or help organize a meet up? I am in southeast MPLS and would be happy to try and get something...

    Miesville, Minnesota

    I like small towns. Each one seems to have a characteristic that makes it unique. In Miesville, it's the obvious love of baseball. They have four baseball diamonds for a population of approximately 130.

    Quarry Park and Reserve

    This is from my P3P a couple of weeks ago at the Quarry Park and Nature Preserve near Waite Park, Minnesota. Unfortunately, the skies were overcast that day, so there's not a lot of color in the video. But that's winter in Minnesota.
