Google Earth Pro bookends this video of the Madison County Nature Trail.

Thank you, Monte, although I hate that youtube destroyed a few busy shots. Part of it's my fault for not shooting Protune, though. Not enough bits.
 
I was expecting to see you fly out of a window on the bridge.
What is the music. (Nice editing to the music, by the way).
 
I was tempted to fly through a window but was overruled by a very low satellite count. Not used to flying ATTI much. That and the auto iris issue with the GoPro.

As it was, this shoot cost me a set of props trying to maneuver low and slow among the trees. Probably more crashes that day than the previous 7 months combined.

Thanks everyone.
 
I too liked the various shot angles. I liked the final Google earth transition.
 
Great video love the interpolation with Google earth, I can honestly say that I have never seen water that was so calm, great flying day.....
 
I really like the low smooth shots. You did them really well, especially through the trees. Just wish you'd gone through the whole covered bridge.... that would have earned a gold star!

I was lucky with the wind over the 2 days I flew. Both were calm but only one was sunny. It was so calm, when I flew very low to the water the prop wash would disturb it and trash the shot.

Just wish you'd gone through the whole covered bridge

Send me your Phantom and I'll give it a go!
