We had some fun flying the Sky-Hero Spyder and Spy last week. We were looking for some cool footage and stills (because I wanted a new photo for my computer’s desktop), so as sunset approached, Petr Hejl from NotADrone.com came up with a plan to shoot video of my Sky-Hero machines while I flew. As we were flying he kept telling me to go higher and higher because he was trying to get the horizon and sunset all in the same view. While we stayed below 400 feet, once I reached about 200 feet it got hard to see the machine to fly it. That is when I turned to look at his monitor and I discovered that my machines were in plain view. So I started flying an FPV of sorts from his monitor…. Second Person View? Perhaps. Needless to say it was a blast and the video and still photos came out amazing. Thanks Petr for your help. It was a fun day of flying…
