Rufus with the monster and voices inside of my head...

While seasons start blurring for some of us (thanks to drysuits), others still have the opportunity to savour the feeling of the opening session of a new season. That was my case yesterday. Fun time at Rufus yesterday with some really cool people!

quad footage looked great.
don't know much about the limitations of the quads, figured they didn't fly stable enough in wind. noticed footage looked like it was mostly filmed over land, wondering if you were hesitant to film over water because of that

Thanks Stringy... No specific limitations to flying over water except the fear of losing the Quad in it in case of malfunction. Also, with 7 min battery life, you need to be quite cautious towards the end of the flight as the Quad will start dropping if you ignore the warning lights. I was actually over the water several times in this video but didn't want to push my luck too much Smile

I totally dig the aerial perspective, keep those helis flying.
