    Incredible! Were you in a chase car? How far away can you control that drone? Do you have two cameras on board, one for pointing in direction of flight for navigating while other does video capture?

    That is amazing video and great flying ! I have driven past Camp Roberts many times and have noticed the rail sidings there. Glad to see they are still in active use.

    Yeah, that's neat. That's not the military police knocking on your door, is it?

    Hehe, just kidding. :D

    Thanks! No chase car, standing in one rooftop location. You can control it up to 3 miles away in the right conditions however you aren't allowed to fly beyond line of sight. It only has one camera facing forward. You can pick up the same drone at Costco nowadays.

    I liked that thanks.

    Good flying skills travelling backwards and avoiding the power lines!
