FPV Drone Flight into the Iceland Volcano PT1

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- FPV Drone flight over Fagradalsfjall Volcano in Iceland. I fly right over the lava flows and then into the crater filled with a massive lava lake. The drone was piloted from the ridge on the eastern side about a mile away from the crater. Shot with the DJI FPV Drone with a GoPro 8 mounted on top. The footage was then stabilized in reelsteadygo. Overall an amazing experience. Shot on June 24th, 2021. Hope you enjoy!

The volcano is larger and more powerful than the smaller craters that were erupting earlier this year and it was definitely tricky to fly so close. The wind was helpful in pushing the hot air and gases to the right allowing me to fly more safely to the left of the crater. The trickiest part was dealing with the turbulent air and gases coming out of the volcano and some of the lava flows. I nearly lost control on my second pass into the crater due to all of the air turbulence and just made it out with full throttle. As of this time (end of June 2021) it was no longer possible to get as close to the volcano requiring me to fly from just over a mile away. The DJI FPV drone performed amazingly well and I had almost no signal breakups as long as I stayed in front of the volcano.

Thanks for all of the great comments and feedback! I wanted to address a couple of things that keep coming up. Yes, I flew quite fast with the drone to be able to get that close to the lava without melting and keep the momentum going through areas with turbulent air. Sorry if it's too fast for you but I wanted to post the video at true speed. I could slow it down to 80% as it was filmed at 30fps so lmk if that would be of interest. I also have some slower footage shot with a traditional drone so stay tuned for that. And apologies for the choppy video it must be something with youtube compression (my framerates and everything were good). I'll try to get it sorted for the next one. Thanks again for watching and subscribe if you'd like to see more footage. There's plenty more where that came from!
Can you please give the date of when you filmed the footage in your description as well as the date of upload to youtube. Beaut video - thank you very much!
I yelled Go faster! Up! UUUUPPPP! You're going to melt or crash! Footage at speed is fantastic. Thank you for sharing this!
Please don't slow it down.
The video is perfect! More, please.
It was just stunning the way it is!! So beautiful! Thank you :)
That was by far the best volcano 🌋 footage we’ve seen!
Bravo!
Totally agree.
Uma 💩
Thank you for a stunning flyover, and especially for NOT adding sound/music. It is so much more impressive to hear the thundering voice of Fagradalsfjall itself.
This footage makes it really easy to see just how much the lava has already filled up the surrounding valley, super fascinating and well done on the piloting part, that must've been nerve wrecking
Well, that was quite a thrill ride.
A daredevil expert on the controls :)
That hamster sure is a skilled pilot….
I had a drone before, u can just let it fly on auto-pilot and just script a route where to fly and which heights en directions.
That is AMAZING! I am so impressed how the heat did not melt your drone!
😲 Mind. Blown.💥 I have a new found respect for drone film work after watching this.
Stunning, thrilling!!! Amazing control, flying the drone over all that hot air turbulence. It took my breath away.
Some of the best dronage I’ve ever seen.
Superb footage here. How can this epic video only have 1200 views? I've been an avid watcher of drone footage since the first lava oozed out, and this is the best I've seen. Keep up the great work!
This is probably the most impressive and incredible footage I have seen thus far. Thank you so much.
Wow! Completely different perspective on Nar compared to the standard long-range cam shots. Brave of you to risk your drone, thank you.

That was the best bit of drone flying yet 👍
Good to see clearly the lava going down the tubes ..
Thank you Joshua. Great vid. Daring expert flying. Very cool in a blistering environment.
Jeez louise that was something. The power, the majesty and the sheer awesomeness of it all beautifully captured for the world to enjoy. You have added to the sum of the world and should be rightly proud.
That drone is playing with fire!
Mustafar looks nice this time of year
Dude - this is historically good footage. Well done, seriously!!!!!
Location of a lifetime. Well worth the risk. Thanks bro
You can say it is a part of the source of life.
Incroyable !!! Le drone aurait pu fondre en plein vol 😬😬😬. Vraiment très très beau 👍👍👍
Lol wow that was exciting but man you were getting a bit close to the heat. Hope you didn’t lose the drone . That area where the big hole was that the lava was pouring into was cool! I think that was a lava lake at one time and the lava just pouring out of a hole! Now we know how the lava is moving around a bit better. I had been wanting to see in that big hole but was amazed there were so many streams of lava in it. That was just so cool. I’d love for someone to fly a drone over the lava beds to investigate the holes and tubes more but at a little bit slower speed lol..not that I did t like this ! It was great but I was holding my breath the whole time hoping the drone did t fall. I know there’s big air currents over the volcano and the heat can make drones stop working so don’t get too close!
Amazing! Thank you for that beautiful footage.
It's so amazing how hot that lava must be to flow do quickly
Simply AMAZING drone video! I don't think anyone has seen that large sink hole before ( between the "viewing hill" and volcano) I watched this several times I slowed down the playback speed to ..25 just to spend more time taking this all in. Amazed the drone didn't melt as he was so close to the lava lake and rivers.
That was Epic!
WOW...just WOW. Jaw dropping.
I hope you're making plenty from the MSM! Thank you.
Amazing footage! I was worried the drone would be toasted, flying so close the lava! But didn’t, and spectacular results!
Nice flight 🤩
Wow!! She still has more to give.. awesome video cheers
Amazing perspective and flying, please if you go again check out that hole in the ground again that's fascinating and no one can see into it without a drone at such high detail. Check your compression/editing settings there is a weird choppiness to the footage like it skips frames constantly. 4k30fps source?
Thanks!
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE!
Most jaw-dropping video I have ever seen - speechless!
Many Thanks!!! Fantastic Video !!! Please go on!!
This is pure gold
Awesome!! The radiant heat from all that must have been intense.
Simply awesome footage, fantastic pilot..Cheers for sharing..
WOW WOW WOW this is fantastic and your drone must be made out of non-melting stuff! Thanks for posting! Best, from Colorado!
That is the best vulcano footage that I have Seen
Stunning 🔥 great Control and smooth flight. Happy that the drone did Not Melt. Greetings Moritz
Almost 2 years and only 66k views, wtf? This is amazing footage!
That’s awesome vision. Thank you. 👍
This man's stuff is absolute top tier on Global scale. There have never been volcano footage on this level. This channel deserves more views!
Wowww! You are simply great
This is the best video I came across today
That is impressive and to think some folk think that we control the planet !
Your drone video and including sound is great. Thank you for sharing. From Ohio, USA.
Spectacular footage! Well done.
This video is gonna blow up
Damn this is incredible! Thanks for sharing.
That huge hole! I had no idea about that 😲😲😲👏👏
Fabulous, unique and thank you so much
Amazing drone skills from the pilot ""thank you". I would love to see this in slow motion. 🌋
How wonderful for the scientists to see this up close and gather so much data and knowledge. 😊
Or at least slower speed
Click on the three dots on the upper right and you can change the playback speed all by yourself - from .75 to .25.
@@adrienechapmanbuffington9669 thank you, much appreciated 😊
Oh wow! Super shots! I really want to go to Iceland!!
Feels like some of the panoramic shots from Mordor!
What an incredible video! Breathtaking. Thanks for posting. :-)
Cool video, gutsy getting that close!
Scary & Beautiful at the same time
Loving your drone videos.
best footage iv seen so far
Yay! I'm Superman. Absolutely brilliant.
My God this is amazing footage
A pretty good video, though I would suggest to find a way to slow this down more in your video editing software. It's really hard to take in what you are seeing with how fast the drone is flying over the crater lake and then the lava river. I had to slow it down in RUclips to 0.25x speed and that made it really choppy.
It would have been nice to have stopped at a couple of the points of interest, which was the large depression where the lava was dropping into from the lava tubes and also the area where the lava was bubbling up from the tube. Maybe something to note during a possible second trip?
A great first adventure with the drone. Well done and thank you.
Do you understand that hovering above hot lava = melted drone = lost $$$$?
@@Peter_S_ Fly higher and you can slow down. Less thrill, of course, but better view on details.
@@susannap.8834 Do you want a pony too?
Amazing video, thanks.
Great flying, mate!!
Breathtaking!!!
Awesome job to get this footage!
Ich war hin und weg!😍😍😍 das war das heisseste Video was ich je gesehen habe🔥🔥🔥
The lava channel system looks like the LA freeway system with on-ramps, off-ramps, over passes and underpasses descending into subway tunnels.
Fascinating !
Wonderful video so good moment ❤❤
It's amazing to me how the drone wasn't affected from the high ambient heat.
Wow, that's different. Very cool! I'm surprised all that heat doesn't bung up your drones flight.
Thank you.
You are El Fuego drone navigator. Awesome!
Awesome footage 👍🏼🇦🇺
Perfect and thrilling. Best footage and different too. Thanks for taking the risk, the lava rivers are totally amazing.
I would love to do that one with 3d virtual reality ride.
Great stuff .
That was rather brave flying, as it’s swallowed up a few drones! Well worth it though. And that hole! Where the heck does that lead too?!
Thanks! Not sure exactly. Most of the lava ends up in these lava tubes and can end up flowing very far underground
Your channel is my absolute favorite. Makes me feel like a little kid again ❤
Wow I'm amazed that's the best footage so far I've ever see on RUclips. Liked, Shared and Subbed 👏🌋
Thank you!!
Radical flying... what a rush! Thanks for the unique perspective! Love this.
Superb... Lava-tube-tastic in fact... xxx ;-)
Bloody good moves 👏 your flow is that of a pro 👌 😎, you could get some cork mat and make a heat shield for drone ?
Thanks! Been practicing my skills
@@joshuaturner would be a thing if you could get some data as you fly ? Temperature 🌡 of air , would be cunning to have it on HUD so its in front of you on screen. Anyone with any ideas please get involved 🙏, keep at it and thank you again from the 🇬🇧
Genial, excelente video.
Great video..I really thought you were going in....
This video is amazing. The sounds the volcano makes is very very powerful. Wow. Then the further away, you can hear it. It sounds like boiling water. Great video
Wow. What more can I say except 'More! More! More!'
Fantastic footage - was the speed because of uncertainty about maintaining RF contact when in close proximity to the boiling liquid rock fountains?
That quality of footage should be worth serious money - it's awesome, and right up there with the best I have seen from the whole eruption.
Great work.
Should be sponsored by the makers of Tobasco Sauce ! 😋
One of the best drone vids I’ve seen so far from the volcano. Thanks.
Simply Lavatastic footage ! brave too, possibly even crazy haha
Incredible footage. The amount of lava buildup is astonishing, and the colours in the lava are just beautiful. Thanks for taking the risk.
This has made my day. Thank you! This is f*cking awesome.
Fact: That was epic!
Truly an awesome spectacle!!! Thank you so much for putting this up!
At least it’s still flowing good!
Wow! Really marvelous flying mate. Very extreme. Thank you for sharing 🔝🤙🔥
AMAZING footage! It's awesome film footage that you were able to capture and you didn't lose the drone due to the heat.
insane....woooo!
Please can you slow it down a bit, this is some great footage and deserves to be savoured. Yes, I did slow it down myself but it was really jumpy. Also when did that huge hole appear in the lava at 0:59? Regards from UK
Terrific!
Wow!
