Shot on a DJI Mini 4 Pro—got more South Florida clips coming soon! It was super windy, around 18-20 mph, but the drone handled it well.
The Keys? Looks great, I love it! Try vertical shooting mode—you can also customize the Fn button to quickly switch between vertical and horizontal mode.

Yeah… totally forgot to press record.
Interesting choice to post yourself breaking the law.
Which Key was this? We thought about stopping, but the drive back to Fort Myers was already gonna be long. Can’t wait to get back to Duval Street!
Y’all are so annoying, I swear. Stop flying over the damn road.
What part of Florida? Looks like a cool spot!

Not sure exactly which Key, but it was about 10-15 minutes before Marathon.
Please don’t fly over active traffic. Also, remember the ‘triangle of safety.’ If you’re gonna do something even slightly questionable, at least color-grade your footage so it looks better. Also, adjust your gimbal rotation speed—some of those movements are way too jerky.
Maybe I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, but this gets a thumbs-down from me. It’s not particularly cool, not well-executed, and, if this is in the Keys, you’re breaking the law in the first two seconds of the clip.

I get complaining about flying over traffic, but whining about color grading? You’re just being a grumpy prick.
@Chen
Here we go again…
@Chen
What’s the ‘triangle of safety’?
@Chen
Yeah, I get it. I probably should’ve stayed to the right of traffic instead of crossing over. But it wasn’t a sustained flight over cars—just passing through.

No, it was sustained.
People misunderstand this a lot. The moment you recorded it, it became part of your ‘mission,’ meaning your point of interest was literally the cars underneath you.
Your cone of safety wasn’t followed, and you were tracking traffic for most of the clip.

That doesn’t matter. Whether it’s sustained flight or just passing through, the same rules apply.
So awesome!
