Drone Flight over the Beach at Seaside, Oregon

in #drones7 years ago

It took me a few days to get this posted because I still don't have "real" internet at my house, just phone tethering. It works fine for anything except large uploads. But it's here at last! Watch me hassle seagulls for being shifty little asswipes, and startle innocent vacationers unaccustomed to being followed by flying robot cameras.

Once again multiple updates were required before it would let me fly it, but this time I was close to some public wifi which greatly expedited that process. Again, the footage here is actually at the lowest quality settings the drone will allow: 720p, 30fps.


Stay Cozy!

@alexbeyman,
Dude is this drone allowed to fly over every place of the city! In my country it has limitations due to security issues!
Great video and it's good to get an idea about the area where you are living!

Cheers~

Quality looks great for only 720p, 30fps! What drone are you using?

DJI Mavic Air

Ah, makes sense. I've heard good things about the Mavic Air.

Drones really need a stealth option to fly around the city and spy on everyone. It'd be fun (As long as it's me who controls the drone though).

Now watching it

Today i watched the Sea from a different angle of view. Thanks man.

Belive it or not I watched it entirely. This whole time I was thinking “where were you?” I think in its lowest quality it still was great even though it broke up a bit, perhaps it was my internet. I love the view, it reminds me our beach. People playing, it’s so peaceful. Swimming people? I’m surprised though. Poor seagull, you actually did scare him. I wander what was he thinking? I wouldn’t be surprised if some older people say they finaly saw UFO for the first time. I’m confused, on the beach people were dressed like it’s a winter, but few yards from the shore people were jumping and swimming in the pool .

We're hardcore in Oregon. The water is cold but we swim anyway.

BRRRRR!

Cool brother, to play drones need expertise. but it seems to be used from the way of shooting. success and have fun

Wow that's such a beautiful view of the society. And also the sea looks beautiful and the beach. Drones are love. I have always wanted to buy one, and I will someday.

That's cool - My son works in seaside - next time I get down that way I'll try to message ya - It would be cool to meet another steemian

Indeed! But I don't live in seaside, I was just visiting.

bummer - Hope you enjoyed your visit , it is a pretty place (when you don't live there LOL)
sometimes the tourists can be assholes (just kidding)

You said in the poster, you took a lot of days to get the post of this beach, but, take a little more time, sir, very much like your post.

Your home environment is so beautiful, the place is so beautiful

Always dig these drone videos. Makes me want to get one of my own. Maybe if I save up enough SBD I will...!

Also, kudos for harassing the seagulls. I am an animal lover, but those things deserve to be harassed sometimes. Stop trying to steal my picnic food!

This is really eye catching view of your city and beach.
Can you tell me the price and name of drone?
I also want to buy this amazing gadget.

DJI Mavic Air, for $800. It's a half-size little brother to the Mavic Pro with all the same features, the only compromise is less range (perhaps a few thousand feet) and 21 minutes battery life instead of 27. I chose it for the portability, it's so small I can pocket it.

Thank you so much.

The drones are damn cool, I wish I could use it in my journeys. All you need is just a sunny day, some decent internet, and some zesty internet

let me jump into that pool
beutifull place

I have to say alex you have really outdone yourself on this one.

Drones are damn cool, Wish I could use mine every time I plug it in I trips my breakers. All you need now is just a sunny day ,some decent internet, and some zesty internet.

If you are lazy to walk to get outline of surrounding the best remedy for you is to have a drone. Sit somewhere and fly over all the region.... Anyways hopefully you are not lazy that i know... Moreover hope the done didn't catch some chiggy wiggy in the apartments... 😉😉

That is some cool footage.

Zoom that swimming pool Alex 😁

Awesome video. The stabilization (gyroscopic, optical or otherwise) is genuinely impressive. Each time I see one of your drone vids, it reminds me how far technology has come. Nice to see aerial footage documenting your latest treks.

Also - good job not getting a rock or bottle thrown at your expensive drone by the more mischievous rapscallions wandering about. Just thinking that my own instinct at a young age would be to try to capture the flying thing with a net or somesuch to see how it works. Not being malicious exactly, just the carefree disregard of youth for the property of others magnified by over-abundant engineering curiosity.

Personally I think it would be really interesting to fly your drone out over the ocean as far as you can safely go from the beach before reaching the rubicon point. Might catch a whale migration at certain times of year, August possibly? Of course I'd be extra cautious about sending anything electronic over the salty moist sea air, but it would be an invigorating flight.

It's so stable, it makes me wonder about the feasibility of a compact nuclear powered hexcopter as a long duration observation platform. It could evade being shot down, which a satellite or balloon can't do, and is more maneuverable than winged drones.

I thought it is a little architectural model at first when I saw the thumbnail :D

Even after having no real internet, you took a lot of time to get this post on the beach, which we found through post, thanks, for giving us the post, sir,

Drones that dropped drones that released drones that then silently killed people.It's a drone where everything and everyone is remotely controlled....

How much did the drone cost. Its amazing. I have to buy one of these.

It's a flying robot camera! Those camera's regulations was to much high. Some day's ago I'm just research about that!

You controlled it quite well... The sea looks beautiful BTW...

Ehave, he's Alex Yeh Hai Really, WarSelf and The One One.

how cool its awesome scene Oregon at beach views, enjoyed!!

I liked it and i hope you make more videos specially at 1080p. Its funny how some people were looking at the drone and seemed a little bit unsure of what was going on.

your home is wonderful and other side place so beautiful. thanks for @alexbeyman

I love it, the view looks great. Drones are machines that can do exceptional things!!

Your drone flights are just top-notch. I'm a fan.
Hope that you got a couple of photos of naked ladies in their apartments.
