Drone Photography

Thought I would start a thread for some drone footage and pics.
I bought a drone because I thought it would come in handy for numerous things and not just be a big boy toy.
I wasn't wrong. I love having one.

Got a wee mavic pro that is very portable. I recently carried it on a Thar hunt and didn't even notice the weight of it.
Have a few pics of deer, Thar and chamois but won't post them as I am sure the GPS is embedded in them[emoji16]

Anyway just some random pics I have used it for and like. Scenery around home. Attachment 88575

Take a screen shot of your animal photos and post those instead, then there'll be no risk of sharing GPS data.

Using drone to check LR targets and a duck camp on the riverbed.

Obviously fly up to the target to see fall of shot. Would work out to 3+km so pretty handy. If I have a good spot I leave the drone close to the target turned on and just check the screen after each shot. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1c504d9e7c.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ac969143f1.jpg

If we used the drone you likely wouldn't have shot your Bull.

I didn't need a headlight as we had yours and a full moon. Mine was just down the creek in the truck if I needed it anyway. [emoji106]

I even packed half your meat out ya miserable bum[emoji16]

Haven't looked for a while but I would wait for the pro 2
It is supposed to be a lot better but that's just the rumour.

Mine with all the gizmos and spare battery was around $1350
Wasnt brand new tho.

Ha! A drone huh? No surprise really.... reminds me of those words our ol' mate Leonardo once said:

"For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

R93 I am of Ngai Tahu descent so I am just checking that you have permission to fly over my family land. If you don't and you get challenged, then tell them Rushy said you could.

They don't own any land near me apart from part of our range so I think I am good. I will keep it in mind tho. [emoji106]

The local iwi here are pretty cool and laid back anyway.

How do you upload to UTube to then relay back onto here ??
20-06-2018, 01:59 PM

When you are in the video playback screen there is a share button below the video, click on it and one of the options is to copy the link. Then paste that. Hopefully that makes sense?

Sorry, I've reread your question @Sarvo. To upload to YouTube you need to create an account (if you have a Google account then you just use the same sign in) and then select the video file that you want to upload

But you 1st have to turn the clip from your device into or onto a UTube - yes ??
I thought you might need to open a UTube account ??

Cheers
So no need to change format for UTube ??

Was amazing how long it sat there before it finally got sick of the drone... Was around 900m across the valley from us. Brother could see the drone and chamois in the spotting scope but it took quite a while to find the chamois with the drone...

Yes you will need an account, and its a slow process to upload :)

I have edited the footage and saved/compressed for YouTube using iMovie (on Apple). Not sure on what file types are accepted though sorry

If you're not sure which format to save your video as or are getting an "invalid file format" error message when you're uploading, make sure that you’re using one of the following formats:

.MOV
.MPEG4
.MP4
.AVI
.WMV
.MPEGPS
.FLV
3GPP
WebM
DNxHR
ProRes
CineForm
HEVC (h265)
