    This is bye far the best video with the drone getting shots no one else can peering into the mouth of the beast, as it continues to belch out 2000" degree lava and i'll just sit here and enjoy the spectacle while listening to turok ost which goes perfect with this hostle landscape.

      I'm so glad I got there when I did, as the lava is closing down the trail so that we can't get as close as we did before.

    @dronelaw  3 роки тому +18

    I have been asked by quite a few people to give them an idea of what it is like to visit the volcano. So, here is Eric’s quick tour guide to the Iceland Volcano.
    Base Camp. Grindavik. It is a charming little town with a supermarket, a gas station, and several excellent restaurants. Grindavik is about 10 minutes from the parking area for the volcano. I stayed at the Borg Guesthouse and thought it was very good.
    Getting to the parking lot. The road up to the parking lot was brutal when I was there. You may want to consider something other than an El Cheapo economy car just to make it up to the parking lot in one piece. When you get there, take a picture of where your car is. I had a metallic blue car which, when I came back after midnight, was just a gray as every other car there, and when you get back, trust me, you are not going to want to walk around the parking lot clicking your remote trying to find your car.
    Equipment. Expect it to be cold and windy, with occasional rain and snow. I carried or wore 4 layers on top and 2 layers on the bottom, with fairly rugged footwear. I put my drone, controller, spare batteries, jacket, rain gear and food/water into a backpack, and hiked up using walking poles (the Icelandic authorities have since graded the rocky path into a much better road).
    When you get to the top of the mountain, first, take some time to learn the rhythm of the volcano. Every 6 - 9 minutes, you will see an orange river of lava start to come out of the volcano. That is the key; it will start erupting within a minute. Pay attention to the direction of the wind. The wind can blow pumice particles over 1 km “downwind”. When the pumice particles hit you, it is kind of funny because they are light and don’t really hurt. But, they can take out a drone propeller. So, I generally tried to get “upwind” of the volcano, cheat in as close as I could, then start backing off 30 to 45 seconds after I saw the orange lava river begin to pour out of the volcano.
    Be prepared to deal with cold and wind. When I was there (mid-May), it was around freezing and very windy, with occasional snow. I really lucked out in that I didn’t get the usual Iceland rain. But, it is very hard to control your drone when you can’t feel anything under your thumbs and fingers. I fashioned some hand warmers, and will bring better hand warmers next time.
    Lighting. I felt that I got my best shots an hour or so before “darkness” fell (which in mid-May is around 11 PM or midnight). So, my best sessions were when I hiked up (about an hour on the new road) around 7 PM, then set up, flew a battery then put my hands back into my pockets for 20 minutes, waited out snow/bad winds, then flew again.
    Getting back down. Remember that an inordinate number of skiing accidents happen on “the last run”, and that an inordinately larger number pf people die coming down from Mt. Everest than going up. So, don’t burn through all your reserves up there on the mountain; realize that you still have a couple of miles in freezing weather to hike back to the parking lot, and leave before you are too cold. I realize that those who have not been up there may not understand, but trust me, a couple of hours on top of a mountain in freezing wind will really take it out of you. Get down while you can still do it safely.

    Hi Folks, For anyone who is interested, here is a short summary of my advice for anyone who wants to visit the volcano.
    Base Camp. Grindavik. It is a charming little town with a supermarket, a gas station, and several excellent restaurants. Grindavik is about 10 minutes from the parking area for the volcano. I stay at the Borg Guesthouse and thought it was very good.
    Getting to the parking lot. The road up to the parking was brutal when I was there. You may want to consider something other than the El Cheapo economy car just to make it up to the parking lot in one piece. When you get there, take a picture of where your car is. I had a metallic blue car which, when I came back after midnight, was just a gray as every other car there, and when you can back, trust me, you are not going to want to walk around the parking lot clicking your remote trying to find your car.
    Equipment. Expect it to be cold and windy, with occasional rain and snow. I wore 4 layers on top and 2 layers on the bottom, with fairly rugged footwear. I put my drone, controller, jacket, rain gear and food/water into a backpack, and hiked up using walking poles (the Icelandic authorities have since graded the rocky path into a much better road).
    When you get to the top of the mountain, first, take some time to learn the rhythm of the volcano. Every 6 - 9 minutes, you will see an orange river of lava start to come out of the volcano. That is the key; it will start erupting within a minute. Pay attention to the direction of the wind. The wind can blow pumice particles over 1 km “downwind”. When the pumice particles hit you, it is kind of funny because they are light and don’t really hurt. But, they can take out a drone propeller. So, I generally tried to get “upwind” of the volcano, cheat in as close as I could, then start backing off 30 to 45 seconds after I the orange lava river begin to pour out of the volcano.
    Be prepared to deal with cold and wind. When I was there (mid-May), it was around freezing and very windy, with occasional snow. I really lucked out in that I didn’t get the usual Iceland rain. But, it is very hard to control your drone when you can’t feel anything under your thumbs and fingers. I fashioned some hand warmers, and will bring better hand warmers next time.
    Lighting. I felt that I got my best shots an hour or so before “darkness” fell (which in mid-May is around 11 PM or midnight). So, my best sessions were when I hiked up (about an hour on the new road) around 7 PM, then set up, flew a battery then put my hands back into my pockets for 20 minutes, waited out snow/bad winds, then flew again.
    Getting back down. Remember that an inordinate number of skiing accidents happen on “the last run”, and that an inordinately larger number pf people die coming down from Mt. Everest than going up. So, don’t burn through all your reserves up there on the mountain; realize that you still have a couple of miles in freezing weather to hike back to the parking lot, and leave before you are too cold. I realize that those who have not been up there may not understand, but trust me, a couple of hours on top of a mountain in freezing wind will really take it out of you. Get down while you can still do it safely.

    This is excellent. I prefer the music to the constant wind noise from other peoples recordings. I mean really...can't they get a wind excluder on their mic's? It's only a piece of fur. Again this is much better than SKOOOOKKKOOOAAAAOOGGGGGSSSOOOO!

      Thank you. Basically there are three noises you hear on the top of the mountain: 1) Howling wind (constant), 2) volcano erupting (every 6 - 8 minutes), 3) people making comments. The howling wind truly dominates. I have another non-drone video on the pumice shower with the natural sounds.

    I might be in the minority here but I thoroughly enjoyed the soundtrack accompanying this video. Perhaps for a 5 minute video the sound of crackling lava rock sliding down slopes and wind noise in microphone screens would give you more of a sense of being there but I have watched other videos at ground level that captured live sound and I found it annoying after more than a few minutes. So for a 37 minute presentation I much prefer the soundtrack approach and have enjoyed very much sitting back and watching your compilation of incredible high definition drone videos. It reminds me somewhat of sitting in front of a fireplace and watching the flames consume the wood. Strangely relaxing.

    Have you ever wondered how much total energy that this volcano has released in total and how much it releases on average each day?

    • @dronelaw
      @dronelaw  3 роки тому

      No kidding, just imagine how much steam energy could be harnessed with 2,000 degree lava.

    Any bets when this is going to hit the sea? I say around then end of May. Great footage by the way! You did pick some good music to play though.

      I think you may be right. I've been back in California for only 6 days and the spread of the lava is SO much more than when I was there. I'm going back in July and my family was planning on doing the Ring Road. I'm a bit worried that to have a "ring", you cannot have a lava stream through the middle of it.

    I would love to see a map of the magma chamber that supplies lava to this volcano. How large is it? How deep does it extend? Surely, some bright young volvanologist has made such a map!

    • @dronelaw

      I don't think they know yet. They know that there is a "lot" of pressure under that earth, and it has come up so far in 5 different locations.
