continuing the journey, following the valley from Fochriw down through Prac Cwm Darran and into Deri. (this picks up where the "Rhas Las and the village of fochriw" video ends) Parc Cwm Darran is located in the site of the old Ogvile colliery and just goes to show what beauty can be brought back to old mining sites.

    '..architecturally one of the most important in the UK'. Why is it boarded up and being left to rot??

      Due to dwindling numbers the synagogue was closed in the 1980s and the building was closed and sold. It spent some time as a gymnasium. Before falling out of use. In 2019 it was bought by the foundation of Jewish heritage and they are to carry out works on restoration

      @@DarrenValleyFromAbove-op5eb Just did a similar flying, below tree tops, a building nearby. Selected Cine mode but a sideway move happened faster then expected..... The drone stayed in the air but the camera was tilted to who knows what. A significant chunk of one prop was gone... A Mini 3 pro.... Did some more flying in closed spaces and it's sure not easy.

    Great footage, but please be aware that as a drone operator you have a duty of care towards the public and one safety rule you should always follow is to operate your aircraft within visual line of sight (VLOS)... there is no way that you could possibly have kept eyes on that drone given the distance and meandering etc... I don't say this to be argumentative, but as a fellow drone user who has had my drone struck by birds for it to fall out if the sky. Imagine damage what that could do if it hit someone on the ground. Even if it's a sub250. Safe flying my friend.

    • @DarrenValleyFromAbove-op5eb
      @DarrenValleyFromAbove-op5eb Před 2 měsíci

      Thanks for your advice. I was actually in a vehicle traveling along the road to the side of the valley. I was in VLOS for "most of the flight" as I did lose sight for a few seconds here and there.
