  • Welcome to, without doubt, one of Europe's greatest all-mountain / enduro MTB trails. Found in the Bike Kingdom, Switzerland, the Dark Side of The Moon Trail and Alplisee Trail connect together to give an incredible 10km ride that descends over 1000 metres.
    Join me as I take on one of the greatest mtb trails I have ever ridden. The trail has an incredible mix of flow and rock sections. Moreover, it has some of the greatest views I have ever seen. In this video I share my experience of one of Europe's greatest enduro MTB trails.

    Great video. The drone footage was amazing. It was interesting that the GoPro footage was making the track seem steeper than what the drone was showing.

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  10 месяцев назад

      Yeah. It's amazing how different camera perspectives do different things. Unfortunately I don't think any camera will ever catch steepness and depth that well. Makes you wonder what places like Rampage and Hardline look like in real life 🤯

  • @bestdayevermtb2
    @bestdayevermtb2 10 месяцев назад +1

    Great scenery and awesome drone shots. Any issues flying a drone in Europe? In NZ you need to get the land owners permission to fly it. Also I could not hear the drone in any of the video. Did you simply use audio from riding when the drone was not flying or is it quieter than a skydio? Keep up the good work.

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  10 месяцев назад +1

      Cheers Lance. The Mini 3 Pro is really quiet so it's almost impossible to hear. The downside is it isn't that powerful so it's not a do it all MTB solution.
      Switzerland has very similar rules to the UK. I had to register and obtain a flyer ID from the Swiss Government. I then had to display the ID on the drone itself. Other than that, you just need to ensure you fly responsibly and within the letter of the law.
      Overall, flying drones in Europe is pretty straightforward 👍

    Hi, truly amazing place and video, you captured it well. Can I ask, what do you do with the drone controller when riding? And also which drone do you use?
    Dan

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  10 месяцев назад

      Hi Dan. I have a Mini 3 Pro. Great wee drone for sure. The controller goes into a rear pocket on my backpack. It works really well. Saying that, Skydios beacon solution is better IMO.

    • @AverageDan81
      @AverageDan81 10 месяцев назад +1

      @@streetpigeonmtb we have the same Drone... I bought a bar mount but it feels way to unstable for off road, so bought a shoulder strap type as well, so it hangs off my neck. Still not ideal I just didn't want the rc pressing any random buttons whilst in my bag.
