Desert Explorations

I'm a Part 107 UAS pilot and enjoy discovering Arizona. I also share my experiences with travel, my dog, and my family.

    Robert, your productions just keep getting better and better. I suppose that being retired gives you plenty of time to hone those production skills though. I am not too far behind you, but I still have a few more years of work in store for me before I retire. Keep up the great work. On a quick side note, I used the same music track for my Bartlett Lake video. 👍

    Nothing boring. Great landscapes, appropriate music, interesting fades. I like that. Now I really hope that the red rock country around Sedona will soon be captured with your drone, it will definitely be spectacular. Greez from Switzerland.

    I know I'm late to this party - I just picked up an X3 but I've had a GO2 for a few years now - but I think the Insta app (especially the desktop version) is capable of 90% of the editing that I can even imagine wanting to do. For on-the-road posting to social media, the Insta360 phone app is excellent.

    lol. It’s the final step with editing and probably the most fun, hard not to overdo and just “whoosh” everything. I bought a pack of titles and sound effects from Four Editors that had maybe 100 different whooshes.

    "Tanks for watching". I' d like to say T H A N K S for presenting us those videos. One word: GREAT: the diversity of landscapes, movements, angles, perspectives... and how the music fits to the scenery. Reminds me when I flew in 'real' airplanes out of Scotsdale in that area.... Sedona, Monument Valley, Grand Canyon, Petrified forest, Lake Powell, even Meteor Crater and much more. Maybe you like my last short 'winter-video' shot on a beautiful day 2 weeks ago near Berne Switzerland. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zpmm0KOcoaiyqJM.html TKS again !
