What UAV's (Drones) were meant to be used for - couldn't have got that shot any other way.
Well done.

Super cool! Would have been awesome to have another shot from the rear with another inspire!

Definetly a unique pov!

Thanks!

@Charles.mabry: There was actually another quad (I think it was a Phantom 3) that the shipyard use to document their launch.

Here's a 360 VR view of the ceremony that I captured with a Ricoh Theta S... if you pay attention to the sky, you can see my Inspire following the ship closely, then about 10-20s later followed by the speeding Phantom:

I'll see if I can track down their footage and upload that to youtube

ps: I think you need to open this with a Chrome on desktop\notebook, or the Youtube app on phones/tablets.

Swing the tablet/phones around to see the surrounding. Click and drag on desktop browser to do so.
