Roadcycling fimed whit pro drone in 4k definition

[jacoblundalfvengren]

Enjoy the first movie we made whit a drone - me (on my bike) and my friend whit the drone


View: https://youtu.be/RM1A4p6aC6I


Shots are taken from Sweden and if your computer can play 4k do it for the amazing quality

please comment here what we can do in the next video this is the first

Unless you've a commercial permit for a drone, don't try this in the UK - the CAA will throw the book at you if they catch you - and posting on here could be a good way of getting caught. There are a lot of rules concerning 'model' aeroplane flying...... drones come under those rules (Air Navigation Order).

Drone flying is a hot potato right now as most drone flyers don't know that they are regulated by the CAA. As is all model aeroplane flying.

**** em all. Theres no harm in flying such devices. Most flyers are not aware of such pedantic rules because it isnt reasonable to expect them to study the law in depth. For all I know there could be a law on masturbating in home made submarines. Im not going to google this or go to college to study law to find out.

Thats cool Op.

Nice vid. It makes me want a LILY

Not sure if you actually read the rules. What I saw in the video does not require a permit and nothing illegal was done.

It's getting to the point that these are becoming a genuine navigation hazard for aircraft. , which is itself sufficient to make me think such rules are far from pedantic. The then there's the risk of injury to those on the ground, and the privacy issues. The laws exist for a reason, and the moment something untowards happens you'll likely be the first on here, thumping the table and demanding to know why there were no laws to prevent the tragedy.

This has received huge publicity over the last year, particularly in the lead up to Christmas. Considering the volume of coverage on tv and press it's perfectly reasonable to expect the typical drone user to be aware that regulations do exist.

Had that film been made in the UK it wojld likely have fallen foul of the air navigation order, most particularly flying within 50M of ground structures.

Drones are causing trouble with R/C aircraft flyers, because their users flouting the rules, may get further restrictions placed on them and their hobby.

You do not need a permit to fly a private drone, within certain locations. Flying over structures (and a public highway) is not allowed. It could be allowed if you have a commercial permit. If you have a commercial permit, you will definitely know the rules.

Flying over a public highway may well get you into trouble with the CAA - there are lots of other circumstances where 'model' flying can get you into trouble, which is why there's a training programme for RC (radio control) model pilots administered by the British Model Flying Association. That programme produces (generally) responsible model flyers who are unlikely to fall foul of the regulations.

Drone flyers, who may well know nothing of the CAA ANO, or the BMFA training schemes, may well end up in hot water if they try to film cyclists on a public highway. There have already been legal cases relating to drone flyers breaching the ANO.

Which is exactly what Drago and Classic33 are saying.

As a long-time model flyer, and member of the BMFA, I'm simply advising anyone who might think of flying a drone over a public highway to film a cyclist - be aware of the potential consequences.

FWIW, I waiting for a neighbour to pop round to bring me a drone found on his son's farm near Wrexham. Someone's lost one and they won't be getting it back. It'll be going in the bin. Crushed. These things may well be the end of responsible RC model flying in the UK as we know it, and it's been for decades - it's already a big problem in the USA. We are waiting for someone to fly a drone into a light aircraft and create an incident. Just watch this space....

In this respect, Drago is spot on.

thank lord i live in sweden, i have hear on the radio that they have shut down a big airport in stockholm beacuse of a drone but we film out in the middle of nowhere så think this is cool we dont now anything about the law and thats the best way i think

I am referring to that particular video. I am aware of the rules and could not find anything wrong done in that video. Cognisant of the dangers and thus the rules and the laws.

Back to the video - how does the pilot compose the shots? This one has some good compositions, most notably the short sequence of the cyclist riding towards the village.

Presumably they have lithium-ion batteries? How long will they last and how much will they cost to replace? What I'm getting at is: will this be a craze that conks out once owners are faced wih the first expensive battery replacement?

 

[fatblokish]

I rather liked it.

That's the source of the problem. The kit is fairly cheap, anyone can buy the drones, transmitter etc. Cost is really not a issue. That's why as Drago said they were popular last Christmas. They were also sold in lots of outlets not normally associated with model flying. If you go to a model shop to start model flying, the shop will almost certainly point you to a club to learn your obligations as a responsible flyer.

Many drones have been bought 'outside' of this sphere of knowledge - which is why I advise any CC members who'd like to video cyclists to be aware of the implications - whatever other may say. To be fair - the problem is not confined to drones, there have been problems with people buying cheap and 'disposable' model aircraft off the 'net and getting into trouble because they knew nothing of the ANO.

The problem is not going to go away because of the cost of the kit. It might go away after a major and well-publicised (and entirely avoidable) incident involving a non-commercial use of a drone.

So did I. Drones have a place. Done properly, the different perspective they give us is really useful, and enlightening.

Juts be aware of the rules imposed by UK Govt on how to do it.
