Blasting off drone at State Capitol
Fun day yesterday. I took some shots with my Canon DLSR and soon to have some footage from the drone. My husband is doing a television production. I would love to put some on Dlive.
This took some planning to circle the capitol. Permissions had to be granted, drone license, and airport notified. So you know not to go out without planning.
Set up for blast off across the street from capitol to fly across street, up 400 ft and around then around capitol. He got some amazing footage.

The top of the State Capitol the bronze guy on top is named "The Sower."
Here is DJI Maverick Drone up in the clouds. So exciting and it is amazingly quiet for a drone.
Here he is coming down after about a 1/2 an hour. I think he changes the battery once during this whole event. And lost transmission briefly when near the bronze statue.
Mission Accomplished.
I hope you guys enjoy this post as much as I did posting it.

Really i enjoy the drone flying in the sky. Thanks for the amazing post.
I love the building called sower. its architecture resembles the dome of a mosque
That's pretty cool to know.....
Wow I'm really jealous that you get to fly the drone.
I always wanted to have one and hopefully will get one someday.
These are beautiful pictures. I'm glad you enjoyed the day and time spend with family sure is amazing.
Well, I didn't get to fly it. I did take photos of it flying.
It seemed easy to fly. He has viewing screen on the control panel. He had it so high I could not see it in the sky.
Off to see a client check in later :)
I'd like to get one of these some day!
