    You have mastered that drone. And I like that you see some of the photography side of it still. So many fpv'ers just go for the gaps and create visually boring vids. That photo background and story telling history adds interest to your fpv vids.

    Oh, i love it Ken! When i saw the gps i thought it was gonna be an angle mode video, but this is all dope, smooth flying 🙌 love seeing how great you're getting! Those gaps at the bottom of the pyramid are calling me....can you ride straight down the corner edge through the base? The gaps on the flat side are still doable, might even be able to corkscrew around and thread the needle across the face 🙌 #FlyHighMadeMeDoIt 😉

    • @KenHeron
      @KenHeron  2 года назад +5

      Thanks Dave!
      Those gaps lead to a staircase, so... Soft targets. I did triple check the airspace though, so I'm going to head back soon and try to stay in that corner channel the whole way.
      Memphis has lots of great spaces!

Be sure to catch their expressions as you're about to make contact. If you get enough of them. You could string them together and make a video of it.

    So, I'm curious what's on the edge of legal. It appears that you fly over people on the pyramid and if you have a VO at the end of the Beale St one (4:40), he is watching a display, thus no VLOS. Please help us understand how you did this legally, so all 180k subscribers can understand how this is done. Thanks.
