I know nowt about drones.....

I have to say that the film is impressively smooth - is it a very expensive one?

The other thing that occurs is that yon rider's feet are really annoying :wink:

Impressive. Eurosport chopper pilots should be concerned...

I wish the terrain around here was as flat as that - and the roads as smooth.

As a professional 'drone' pilot, I have one or two things to say about this.
1st, an Inspire 1 is an excellent machine, but it falls a little short of the 'pro' label. The main issue is that it has it's own inbuilt camera with a very wide angle lens. This is perfect for these types of shots but not everyone wants to get up close and personal with 4 spinning props!
2nd, using 1 operator is poor practice. To frame the camera, the pilot is flying by looking in the monitor rather than watching the drone. This practice inevitably kills drones but more worryingly could cause a collision with a 3rd party.
All that said, some nice footage there.

The most horrible part of our 400k Audax two weeks back was 80 km of dead flat Rhine-Valley plain at night. It was a great relief to reach the mountains again.

That was impressive I have wondered about a Drone but wonder what you would do with it after a few times as in this country you would probably have filmed most of what you are allowed to?

At least in Sweden there are places with such low density populations that other people or property would not be such a problem.



Ps your English is better than my Swedish. :wink: :roll:

Nice. It really conveys that sense of freedom that one gets on a bicycle.

. . . and those guys who sit backwards on a motorbike holding a camera as they accelerate to 40mph between the peleton and the tete de la course :?

Incredible! :shock:
If that thing is as a good as is claimed and as cheap,I can see the skies being full of these things!



I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing :?

That Lily device is very impressive! no obstacle avoidance on it though, so not great when going through forests!
