I shot this footage during an intense lightning storm from my DJI Phantom. Being the avid storm chaser and photographer that I am, when I saw this coming I grabbed my gear and took off. I was out ahead of it by 5 miles or so when I shot this. Sure, I risked losing a $1200 piece of equipment, but I had to try it out. Actually, I checked and there were no reported outflow winds...
Everything came down safe and sound and I was able to not only get this, but some great still photos from the ground.
