Before ya go saying it ain't possible, it is.
The trick is to be in a car following the bird.
According to the coordinates shown, this was filmed on hwy 156 in nevada just north of Las Vegas.

Hmmmmm.
If I had a bird capable of doing 100mph, I could fly it high above me in the air and use it to spot for cops with radar eh?
The cops would never see the bird but I can easily see them.

That ending though... made me cry.

40 mph! I'm guessing the wind was behind you.
Nice video. This idea would make for a nice hyper lapse if props were out of the picture.

I kept forgetting the video wasn't what the driver was seeing! YOURE GONNA CRASH!!!!!.....oh, I forgot......

Sweet! Tell us about your setup. FPV is very impressive.

 

[Fair Game]

Interesting, your FPV shows everything except battery levels

 

[Suwaneeguy]

Not my video!
Don't know if the pilot was using fpv or not.

Airspeed? Why don't they label that groundspeed like it is.
