HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- The Tillamook Lighthouse often called by her nickname Terrible Tilly because of the harsh weather was completed in 1881. It operated for 76 years before it was decommissioned in 1957. It is now privately owned and I'm told is up for sale.

Beautiful footage 😊
I really like how the seals are climbing the stairs at 6.10 😊
Thank you very much!
Thanks again
Always welcome, thank you!
Awesome flight and great information. And it was funny watching those 2 seals climb up the steps haha .
Ha! Yeah, that was wild, those stairs worked! 😄
Thanks Marcus! Loved seeing the lighthouse, very nice views!
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
This flight was so cool to watch
Thank you Eddie. I should have used the Avata 2 just to add some drama! 😎
Great flight. Love that lighthouse. And well done for flying out and back. ❤🙂👍
Thank you so much! It was really fun to fly out there.
I had to laugh when you started your orbit around the lighthouse, there were 2 black seals climbing the stairs. When you went completely around, they were in view again at the very top. I didn't know that seals could climb. Beautiful place you were at, thanks so much for sharing.
Ha! Yes, they went right up the stairs! 😄
Interesting story of that light house and nice flying. The Air 3 is really a beast.
Thank you! I agree the Air 3 is awesome.
Great share, thanks Marcus.
Thank you very much!
Thanks, Marcus. I have learned something today. That walruses can climb stairs 😂
Great video and location 👍 👌
Yeah, that was crazy to see! 😄
Wow, super cool, Marcus! One of your better videos, loved the history!
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
Great flight, Marcus! Nice history lesson too 👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Nice drone I have a DJI mini 4 it’s been great!
The little Mini 4 is great!
Very cool, that first pan right showing the mountains in the distance was like a painting! 🖼️ thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! I appreciate it.
Marcus love your videos. I also enjoyed seeing the Sea Lions climb those steps to the top. It is just amazing what you can find when flying drones. This was an awesome flight, thanks for sharing!
I love exploring with drones. Thank you!
Excellent clips
Thank you!
Great Video Marcus. Love that air 3.
Me too! The Air 3 is so awesome!
Loved it Marcus! super!
Why thank you Caroline! Cheers!
Beautiful area Marcus. Great video!
Thank you, it was fun!
Nice take off. Beautiful area to fly. Great video as usual. Actually this is one of your best, Marcus👏👏👏👍😎
Thank you Capt. Ray! It was great fun!
Amazing scenery Marcus! The Air 3 battery life is so impressive.
Thank you John!! Yes, the Air 3 is amazing!
wow nice drone and vido thank u
That was a really fun flight.
I think I see walruses on the rocks😀🇺🇸😁👍
Yep I saw those also on the steps on that lighthouse. It was truly great footage.
Sea lions I believe
Awsome Footage Marcus.
Thank you so much Henry!
nice bold flights!
Thank you for watching!
that was a sick flight there boss
Thank you sir!
Thanks Marcus! Love your videos. I also love my Air 3.
Thank you, yes, the Air 3 is legit!
Great video!
Thank you for watching!
Nice work!
Why thank you! 😀
I'm here always 🎉
Thank you! I appreciate it!
That is so cool, man.
Thank you for watching!
Really nice flight Marcus. All the best from the UK😊
Thank you so much!
Beautiful :)
Thank you Frédéric! Cheers!
Hey Marcus! 👈🥸👉 Great flight, my friend! I really enjoyed it. Columbarium is a place where peoples ashes are stored. My parents reside in one down in Pawleys Island, SC. Cheers, Brendan
Thank you Brendan! That was the word that I was trying to remember! 👍
A nice interesting location 👍
Thank you very much!
That was awesome Marcus! That Air 3 handled the distance with ease! You didn't mention in your video about all the seals that was on the lighthouse rocks and there were many! Several ventured to the top via the stairs while you approached! Could not really tell if any dead ones were there but if they had to jump or could not go back down the stairs, it would be bad news for them! Look closely at your video and you can see them going up!!! How crazy! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Yes, it was cool to see those Sea Lions climbing the stairs!
A beautiful place Marcos 👌🏼
Thank you! It was so much fun to fly there.
Nice one Marcus. 👍🏻
Thank you! It was a really great experience.
Great video and cool drone. i'm waiting for the Air 3S, which I hope comes out soon.
We keep hearing rumors. 👍
Another Gr8 video of Oregon Marcus, thank you....was wondering if anyone flew out to see Terrible Tilly with a drone, and sure enough, you did. I watched your video of Seaside a few weeks ago. Gr8 videos, Tnx again, hope you enjoyed Cannon Beach also, a nice lil Town and Haystack Rock.
We really had a great time in Oregon. I have a video of Haystack rock coming. Thank you!
Excelent excelent 👏👏👏👏
Thank you!
Man, this drone is FAST.
Yes, it's pretty quick. 👍
What a beautiful area and flight, Marcus. Thank you. //Tom
Thank you very much Tom!
Great flight Marcus! The Oregon coast, and an Air3, a match made in Heaven. If you are going to push limits, you couldn't have chosen a more scenic place.
Thank you Leonard. The Air 3 handled it with ease. 🙂
Great video Marcus, as an islander we love light houses. Thank s for this one. one.
Thank you John!
Thanks Marcus! I love that location, so beautiful. I saw some seals on the rocks down at the base of the island, very cool!
Ha! Yes, so many Sea Lions! 😄
Great video my friend , love a flight at a lighthouse its goooood
That was a really fun flight! Thank you!
Great video, Marcus would have looked good with the tele photo at 3 x would had given it a parallax effect going round the lighthouse, but what a beautiful place 😁👌👍 🇬🇧
Thank you! Yes, I should have got some tele compression shots. I agree.
I loved that location when I was there, the views from almost any angle were beautiful. And I wish I would have had a drone like the DJI Air 3 to make it out to that lighthouse. I did get some shots of it with my long lens. Great flight and footage, and interesting narration about the history of terrible Tilly. Thanks for sharing Marcus.
Thank you Ron! That flight was so much fun!
Brilliant Marcus! I’ve seen so many of your videos and only just I’m not subscribed! Just sorted that out and dropped a like too from the post on drone seekers 👍👏🙂
Awesome, thank you so much!
Imagine being on that lighthouse in the beginning, I could stay out there in peace no problem. But being out there and getting hit by a hurricane that you really didn’t know was coming would be horrifying.
Yes, in a big storm is must have been terrifying! 😵
Great flight and wonderful location!
I ALMOST GOT JEALOUS 😢. BUT I can't be jealous because you've done a flight like this with Autel Evo Lite Plus. I appreciate that because that's what made me pull the trigger and purchase the Evo Lite Plus. So im sure someone is watching this and using this video as a deciding factor like i did. Nevertheless, GREAT VIDEO YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿. Love it!
Oh yes, I love my Evo Lite Plus too!
Wow! That first glimpse of the lighthouse in the distance made me wonder about your decision to fly that far. Well, no problem for that drone. Great flight, thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Yes, the Air 3 made it out these and back without any problems. 👍
Sure wish I could see the Oregon Coast but you’re showing it to me and I really appreciate it. Thanks for the great views.
Thank you! I hope one day you be able to get out these for yourself. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter A friend is coming in September and likes to drive so maybe an Oregon Coast Drive with my DJi mini2
Welcome to the Oregon coast! We're having great weather this week.
The word is, "columbarium." The Tillamook Rock Lighthouse is within the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge - aircraft are asked to maintain at least 2,000 ft (600 m) clearance (but, there is an exception for the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse).
Timing is everything. The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is in the process of establishing regulations affecting launching/landing zones at Oregon state parks (I served on the Advisory Committee). This will not be a total ban on launching/landing within the parks, but there may be specific areas mapped where launching/landing will be permitted. However, to date, no actual regulations have been promulgated.
I live on the coast near Pacific City, Oregon - about 70 miles south of Cannon Beach.
Enjoy Oregon. Travel well.
Hello Ed, thank you for serving on the advisory committee. I did check the Oregon Parks website before I took off there. It essentially says "don't bother people or wildlife, and if in doubt ask". I'm okay with launching zones. It's far better than outright bans.
@@IdahoQuadcopter I do not expect actual regs to be implemented before the end of the year. OPRD staff is trying to "map" specific permitted areas for launching and landing w/i OPRD as well as figure out how to provide effective "notice." This is complicated by Oregon having a shoreline/beach, the entire length of which is public domain ... administered by OPRD. The Advisory Committee only came up with broad conceptual stuff, OPRD staff has to craft the actual details and the OPRD Director will eventually promulgate the regs. A lot of work - OPRD has done a commendable job, so far, trying to balance everyone's specific interests/concerns.
BTW - I started piloting an Air 3 in December 2024 (but, I have been piloting drones for ten years and have the 107 cert) and I often refer to your tutorials on this aircraft. So - thanx for that. Be well.
@@edruttledge342 Thank you so much for those kind words Ed. I am a Part 107 certificated flyer too. Part of the fun of this hobby is sharing it with others. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter Marcus - Here in the Northeast, many state parks require pre-approval, which is rarely granted to hobbyists. I wish they would consider pre-approved takeoff/landing zones as edruttledge suggests. We have been all the way down the Oregon coast from Astoria to the California border, and loved every minute of it! Aside from the stunning scenery around Cannon Beach, there is the Tillamook Creamery (a must), the old Tillamook Naval Air Station, and many miles of scenic wonders. This was one of your best and most scenic aerial adventures! Thanks and we look forward to more from the Oregon coast! Great job!
I like the seals climbing the staircase! There are a couple closer locations to fly from, Indian Beach, and from the cliff overlook at end of hiking trail.
Thank you! It was a great experience!
Beautiful video in a very nice place!
Many thanks!
Great piece of coastline, interesting lighthouse like something out of a horror movie even. That Air 3 just keeps on going, DJI trying to temp me with ads for that DJI Cellular Dongle 2 for it although I guess there may not be much signal out there on coast at least there is poor signal on coast here in UK, have to see some reviews on that although the dongle itself is not pricy so may buy it. Good that your flying in interesting places.
Yes, that Dongle is an interesting bit of tech. Thank you!
Marcus you really been putting out some incredible videos lately. This footage is just impressive! I saw some seals climbing on the steps of that lighthouse.👍👍
Thank you Tim! I'm glad you like them!
Nice job love the Oregon coast!
Thank you! Cheers!
👍 liked the video. Thank you
Why thank you!
There were seals or walruses on the island, I wish you had viewed them closer with the 3X zoom. 😮
You're right, I should have used the tele camera!
this if absolutely breathtaking footage Marcus!! I have always wanted to film in a location like that and Lighthouses are so cool. Any idea what caused the gimbal vibes/shakes when you backed away from the Lighthouse? I've never seen that in a DJI. Could it have been caused by wind?
Thank you Ryan! Those gimbal vibrations were weird. I've tried to recreate it, but have not been able to.
@@IdahoQuadcopter to was very strange. Likely one of those fluke occurrences that you may never see again.
Once again Marcus another stellar video! I wonder what it must have been like inside the lighthouse when a storm would hit? Ohio Drone Pilot.
Those lighthouse keepers must have been made of sturdy stuff!
Amazing Oregon history for sure! Curious... How were you able to maintain VLOS at that distance? How did you go about securing a VLOS flight waiver from the FAA? How difficult was that process? In advance, thank you! ;-)
Yes, Terrible Tilly is a really cool piece of Oregon history. Thank you!
Nice one Marcus, what was the distance across to the island. Also a lot of seals around the island. 👌😊
Thank you! Yes, those Sea Lions were cool to see.
Best location to play drones, nice flight as always, I noted a small video clips with jitters from 7:59---8:08 timeline, is that the youtube compression or the strong wind issue?
I noticed that too. 🤷♂️
Great video where you going next ?
Hawaii is on the list. 😀 Thank you!
I'm sure you were a bit nervous flying out there and back regardless of the drone capabilities. I know I am when flying over water like that. Great video nonetheless. Interesting lighthouse for sure.
Thank you! It was a lot of fun. The DJI Air 3 is a beast!
Great video and info, Marcus; what State is this lighthouse in?
Thank you, this is on the Oregon Coast.
Iis@@IdahoQuadcopter Ok, thanks! I will definitely visit soon!
Im just wondering.....could a Potensic Atom 3 axis, since i own a couple, make that same flight? That was a gr8 flight and gr8 video...loved the seals climbing the stairs also. Tnx again for a gr8 video. Terrible Tilly is definately a gr8 Jewel on the Oregon Coast.
Thank you Chas! I'm going to give you a qualified answer. On a dead calm day it might, but you'd likely have just enough battery life to get out and back. I wouldn't recommend it. That said, enjoy your Atom, it's a great little mini drone.
Beaut video old mate, well done. Were they seals on the steps Marcus?
Yes, those Sea Lions were climbing right up the steps! 😀
Nice video seen plenty of seals there how was your signal when you flew out that far
Those Sea Lions were cool!
Did you notice the walruses or something climbing at the top of the steps?
Yes, those are Sea Lions, and that was cool to see. Thank you for watching!
Beautiful. Are you getting a dji dongle 2 ? To try out
No, I'm not flying that far. 😄
When I was there, plan is to fly around that light house but it was raining so I lost the chance…..
I was lucky to have a perfect day for it!
Beautiful scenery Marcus! Are you on vacation, I thought you lived in Boise.
Thank you, yes this was a holiday trip.
Ese faro es un buen sitio para pensar. PERO QUE DEMONIOS ME MANDARIA VENIR AQUI
Yes, so very isolated! 🤠
Did you use a filter at all ?
Not on this flight.
