Nov 11 2020 - Mavic Mini - First Recorded Flight
0I had a blast with this tonight. The Mini is above and beyond my expectations. Emmett loves it. Winds were a little bit high further up so I wanted to be careful here (but I had no warnings thankfully). I believe I had it as high as 30 meters. Tomorrow I intend on pushing 150M in daylight. But this was a test run at my place in St. Catharines to see how it handles and what the imagery looks like. Sorry I didn't have sound in this as I didn't get to play with the editor. I'll have to look into that a bit further and figure out how to get my soundtracks on there.
Some of the sights you'll see from here though hard to see is of course the road I live on (I won't give that away as I noticed I have my house number in the picture). As you climb you can see signal lights, street lights, and the nearby subdivisions. Beyond that I could clearly see not only Brock University on top of the escarpment but the Garden City Skyway in the distance. I may do another night video tomorrow as well.
Of course this is going to eventually get into railroad photography as well as research that will assist me in my Trainz project though that may be shelved as I take advantage of the last remaining good weather we have before it gets too cold. Of course I will try some winter shots on mild days where the mini is in dry conditions.
