✈ Long Range Time Lapse (drone video)

in hivefpv4 years ago (edited)

It was supposed to be a Golden Hour flight, but after I arrived at the spot yesterday I realized I forgot the battery cable of my FPV goggles. So I hurried back home to get the cable. Then when I arrived again at the spot to set everything up for the flight my Taranis got a key stuck error. As a result I had to open then radio and fix the buttons on the field. When I was finally ready to fly the sun was set behind the mountains...
