That's a beautiful area. Your flight gives a sense of how vast and disconnected it is. Thanks!

Beautiful. A lot different from Florida.

Used to fish that area a lot, many years ago. Great to see it again, thanks.

Making me homesick, I once to live there. Had to move, got tired of shoveling the Sierra cement. There must be 100's of awesome places to fly around there! I hope to see Emerald Bay in pt 2. Great vid!!

Wow! Now that’s what I call home movies. P4’s are hard to beat.

WoW, just WoW

Yes! A masterpiece. It seems that you took the whole video in one sequence which is hard to do even in a shorter video.
Pretty distant and high and so close to trees. Can you provide us the data?
Best regards

Thanks! I only cut it twice and once was because the obstacle detection stopped it in front of that tree I was about to go up and over.
I’ll look up the data when I can. The reason I was able to fly so high is because I drove to the lake, hiked to the top of the hill, then flew down to the pond and back up so the max altitude was only a few hundred feet from where I was hiding.

Confucius once say: He who inspire to fly to top, must first submissively sink to bottom

Doesn't matter. It seems that you were standing just beside the lake all the time.
