Thank You! So much for this video. I grew up in America. But every time I was in Scotland. Always felt like home! I know I have strong connections with Bruce and Wallace. Ps. I had a chance to meet James Horner. Before Braveheart was in the movie theaters. My favorite movie and soundtrack. So sad about James. A real musical genius!
5 years ago I was on a cycling tour heading from north to south through this area, trying to find my way from Dunblane to the Carron Valley to camp for the night. OMG was that a hard task, with the myriad of roads, rivers and anti-cyclist hills (sharp up-downs within a short distance, rather than long stretches of moderate climbs). But it was so worth it; for the vistas of these fantastic monuments, the really beautiful countryside, and to experience the charity of the people there to help this exhausted Englishman to get through it. I won't be going back there via bicycle though.... one of the toughest regions I've ever encountered on a bike. Even along the north coast of Scotland was easier than that stretch.
My 3x great grandfather was the military governor of Stirling Castle as was his father, my 4x great grandfather. Robert and William Henry Peddie. William is buried in the cemetery next to the castle.
My name is Robert Stirling. I was very interested in your drone footage of Stirling Castle as my ancestors came from here a long time ago. I got quite emotional watching this and thinking about my Stirling fore bearers. Thank you for posting this.
I starting filming when the sun was low in front of the castle, by the time I moved location to the monument the sun was setting and the small Mavic camera struggled, not helped by the fact I left the ND filter on the lens after the castle shoot. I will only have notched down exposure where required. Thanks for watching and have fun with the Mavic Air.
Hello, is there a way to use this footage in an edit for Scottish folk band Constant Follower? We just shot a live performance at the top of the monument and are now looking for some drone footage to accompany the edit. Thanks
Hey man can you please tell me where you get your music for this video? Im coming back to Scotland and Ireland soon with a Gopro. I was hoping to make my own great video.
amazing - our second request to use some of your footage! Could we use this in a video - it has a Scottish history theme and feel to it. Would credit etc. Best.
Hi we are operating taxi in stirling and making new website. can we use this video in website. without music need your permission for copyright many thanks
Hi, we are making a small video for the Bloody Scotland Book Festival. The video is to try and encourage people to visit other areas of interest within Stirling. Would it be ok to use a a few shots of your drone footage of Stirling castle? Thanks
@@myme1 No problem, I'm sorry I made that assumption, I've deleted my previous message. I get an awful lot of requests to use footage by chancers who take the footage and are never heard from again. All I ask is something small for charity, if you could donate to the following charity I would be very grateful. www.chas.org.uk/donate
The Hovering Scotsman - Hi, thanks for your reply, I fully understand it must be very frustrating for you. I will make sure to donate to your chosen charity. Very much appreciate you letting me use it. Thanks again.

Last of the Mohicans on bagpipes sounds good.
Sure does!
Great shot!! Did you have to take permission to fly this close?
Good vid. Well done.
Cheers Anthony.
Nice one
Nice. Did you get permission for the castle or just chance it?
Pretty amazing! I especially like the light on the castle. Did you do much colour grading on the footage? I'm just starting out with the Mavic Air.
I starting filming when the sun was low in front of the castle, by the time I moved location to the monument the sun was setting and the small Mavic camera struggled, not helped by the fact I left the ND filter on the lens after the castle shoot. I will only have notched down exposure where required. Thanks for watching and have fun with the Mavic Air.
ND for shallower depth of field?
Never forget!
Yes, never forget to remove the lens filter from the camera at sunset, oops.

The band are from Stirling
Hi, let me know your email address. thehoveringscotsman@gmail.com
Awesome! Did you need to get permission to fly your drone around the castle and monument??
Thanks, yes you do.
Hey man can you please tell me where you get your music for this video? Im coming back to Scotland and Ireland soon with a Gopro. I was hoping to make my own great video.
It's "Last of the Mohicans", by "The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards". I bought it on iTunes. Have a great trip to Scotland.
The Hovering Scotsman Cool! Thanks alot!
Hello :D Would you mind if I use this video in a small documentary I am making on Scottish history? It's absolutely lovely. Thank you :)
Hi I’m planning on making a drone channel and I’m wondering if you need permission for the castle or if you can just go for it thansk.👍
You will need permission and have to follow the drone code. Things have got a lot stricter since this video was made. Good luck with the channel.
The Hovering Scotsman thanks 👍
Epic!
Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi! This footage is beautiful, thanks for sharing! I am wondering what your expectations would be for use of your footage for a promotional video?
I accept charity donations for the use of my footage, and proof via a receipt.
@@TheHoveringScotsman Perfect! What is your chosen charity and how much of a donation?
