    I havent been to the falls since 1999. I am from Rochester NY and now live in MN. Really awesome sight to see. Thanks a bunch.

    It's so weird seeing people go across the country to see something I literally can get in my car and see after a 20 minute drive as i live in buffalo, NY. 😂

    This is an awesome video capturing a different perspective on something many of us have seen but not appreciated from this point of view. In the background there's the observation tower that looks like the CN Tower, where, at the ground level, they used to sell oysters guaranteed to have at least mutant pearls within. I enjoyed watching you goofballs send a drone out over the falls. Kudos.

    Nicely done all around! The video production, the flying, the scenery, and of course the save!

    Hey David, this was not a fail, it was a win!!.. you rescued your Tricopter, even your antenna tower fell down... and this IS a win.. I guess, I would have sank my Quadcopter in the Niagara flood :-) *THUMBSUP*

    David, it's always a pleasure to watch your vids and to see Chad and fam too! The machine your running looks very electronically sophisticated for sure. I wish I had your E-engineering skills.

    We have been on holiday to Canada in 2012 and have also been to Niagara Falls.
    What a force of nature, your videos are beautiful, like that of the everglades.
    Good luck with making such images!
    Best regards, Berend.

    Why not strap the base station to your chest? That way you can manually point the antennat by changing your body orientation.

    I love the good old days when we could go out, do this, and be revered. Instead of immediately have people assume we are pervs with "drones". Damn you DJI.

  • @kingharryannis
    @kingharryannis 11 років тому

    You could create a visual art piece ,I do not think it has been done yet with a RV,but this is a very creative medium. Another way of representing the landscape with technology .I think your creativity is marvellous.

  • @Rcschim
    @Rcschim 12 років тому

    Wow! That was so close to the edge of the fall! Only the fact that we saw the gopro footage let me know from the start - that somehow you must have come back. You did a great job on the blind flying!

  • @EdwardChew

    Thank you!

    David, thanks for sharing. As always, you Flite Test/Rc explorer :) guys are awesome for many reasons, one of which is not editing out a near failure. I also like the 8 bit font.

    You definitely have the best FPV videos out there. I can't wait until you're back with the Joshes on FliteTest, their videos with you in them are easily the most fun to watch. (Hopefully you can get a chance to slap Bixler next time around) =)

  • @DreadedRagamuffyn
    @DreadedRagamuffyn 9 років тому

    Great video. And definitely ahead of the curve a bit, as far as quadcopters being still more on the niche market side of things in early 2012. I'm opefully about to purchase a Phantom 3, which basically does everything for you. I must say, having considered all of your efforts that lead to me watching this video now, you have my respect. That's some dedication.
    Thanks for the footage!

    Grin, just watched this video again... been a while and had forgotten about the "fail"
    Moral of story ~ Tripod tied to Rail = Stability. Of course I learned that the hard way myself in upstate NY on the top of a mountain. My Nikon survived... I however had a broken rib.. as we were both blown off the edge.
