So I took a trip out to Monterey Bay Aquarium with my wife; brought along the Phantom 3 Professional. You need clearance from the neighboring airport there (and I did not have the time to acquire), so I settled on a piece of the historic 17 Mile Drive that features the famed Pebble Beach Golf […]
So I got the bright idea of visiting a rail yard. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Roseville, California had the largest rail yard in the west coast. So I took my drone out, and about 2.5 batteries later I was stopped by 2 agents of the Department of Homeland Security. They were wearing […]
Bittersweet project, as on my second battery my drone frame cracked (discovered via inspection) and needed to be submitted under warranty.

My first upload @ 4K…. no guarantees. I’ll be happy if it goes 1080p as all my previous has been 720p. This video was taken near Folsom Zoo @ American river, just before folsom lake, in California.
My last night in Anaheim Hills, I of course had to try and make a night run… got some good footage, along with a decent scare. ENJOY!
Took my Phantom out to the center of Elk Grove, CA… they have an awesome housing development, where many sit right on the water. My phantom starting acting up when the water churning boat came out, so I didn’t get much video on that. Hope you enjoy, and don’t forget to hit like and subscribe. […]
Found a new compression setting in the software I use to achieve a sharper image. Same Copa De Oro video, just changed out the music. See if it uploads sharper than the last video, which was editing more to play on a tablet. This one should be 4K compressed down to 1080p on full TV […]
Not as good footage here. I found a good spot; one of the highest points in the Anaheim hills. It was late in the day, so I have a good transition between sunset and night. Don’t forget to hit like and subscribe.
Ancil Hoffman Regional Park @ Carmichael CA. Uploaded @ 720p for tablets, but shot in 4K. I used windows movie maker to edit 60+ min down to this. I hope you enjoy; don’t forget to hit like, and subscribe. Hopefully, I’ll hit the range with this soon.
