Thread: 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

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

Nudist beach with sandflies?? That doesn't bear thinking about!

excellent - whats the price tag on the mavic pro?

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

Cheaper running cost to a 500E/D/C

I don't think you would want those pics.

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.

Carried a drone all day and never used it, but didn’t have a headlight for walking out....

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.

I even packed half your meat out ya miserable bum

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."
