If you like lakes/ponds, you will enjoy this one. It’s a bit long at 7.5 minutes, but the late afternoon views are quite lovely.

More FPV manual mode practice, with a couple of big crashes. Plainfield, New Hampshire 4/13/26
My manual mode journey continues…slowly. This is very difficult stuff. I have a deeper appreciation for the amazing skills of other pilots that make this look effortless. For now, I’m happy to have crashes that don’t destroy the aircraft!
VERTIGO WARNING! Please do not watch if you are susceptible to video-induced motion sickness.

FPV manual flight training today. Plainfield, New Hampshire 4/5/26
Here’s five minutes of vertigo-inducing video from today’s training flights. I’m just beginning my journey with this kind of drone flying and it is immensely satisfying. I can’t wait to do this when the skies are glorious! For now I’m just glad it stopped raining for a bit.

Some manual mode FPV practice today…and a few sunset shots to calm you down after watching the video! Plainfield, New Hampshire 3/25/26
Seriously, do NOT watch the video if you get motion sickness.
After an expensive crash yesterday, I realized I need a lot more practice flying FPV in full manual mode, so I went to an open area and put in about an hour of practice. Afterward, I felt I deserved some “just for fun” flying. That’s the video. Later I shot the stills below.
Notice I kept getting closer and closer. Again, VERTIGO WARNING for the video!

As promised: some soothing sunset shots.
Frozen Fun FPV flying today…and a crash! First 1.5 minutes: Mill Brook at the Precision Museum in Windsor, VT. Last 5.5 minutes: Blow-me-Down Brook in Plainfield, NH – 3/2/26
As always, VERTIGO WARNING! The crash occurs at 4:00. It was non-fatal and because the drone settled upright, I didn’t have to go out on the ice to retrieve it. Whew!
