Trying a new vantage point, 20-100' above the Virginia Beach shoreline yesterday. Hot sand almost had me looking like Dudley Moore hopping around in movie "10" with Bo Derrick.

Note that the quadcopter shadow was put/left in the frame intentionally.

First Flight; DJI Phantom 2 Vision +

140503-0831B.jpg

First flight of the new Quad...a DJI Phantom 2 Vision + at the elegant Cavalier Hotel on the hill, Virginia Beach, VA. On board 14MPix still and video camera on a 3-axis gimbal to keep things looking smooth. Grass was a little tall so takeoffs and landings on an apple box. Windy and gusty; looking forward to some still air...maybe early morning.
