Flight to Mordor: The aftermath of a 10,000 year old volcanic eruption.
About 10,000 years ago the side of this mountain in the British Columbia Rockies was blown off by a volcanic eruption and molten rock spewed out of the earth. That molten rock created these otherworldly spires that cover the peak of the mountain. They almost look like someone made them with dripping wet sand.
This long range cinematic flight was part of an FPV drone mountain surfing adventure weekend in the BC Rockies.
The smoke from the massive British Columbia forest fires makes everything look hazy and out of focus.
Here's my FPV long range drone build for this flight:
- iFlight XL10 10 inch fpv drone frame with custom arm braces
- HQ 10 x 4.5 x 3 props
- Xing 3110 motors
- T-motor F7 55A stack
- DJI O3 air unit
- True RC antennas all around
- TBS Crossfire diversity receiver
- 2 x 4200mAh li-on batteries that I built myself
- GoPro Hero 11 Camera Butter ND32 filter
- DJI Goggles V2

Avalanche caught CLOSE-UP by FPV drone - Long range mountain surfing in 4k
zhlédnutí 1,3MPřed rokem
We were out for a day of long range mountain surfing in British Columbia on Vancouver Island with our long range drones (that we build ourselves), hoping to get some nice cinematic footage. There was a "severe avalanche warning" a couple of days prior, but things seemed to have calmed down. Just when were were getting ready to leave, I looked up and saw a huge avalanche coming down the mountain...
Epic long range peak run, mountain surfing in the Canadian Rockies - 10km round trip

The Canadian Rockies are exceptionally beautiful and cinematic - they were formed 100 million years ago in a period of massive geological movement, volcanoes and earthquakes - and it shows! I spent 4 days in the mountains here flying my long range fpv drone up to mountain peaks, rock faces, glaciers and more. At this location, we could just see the peak through a small gap in the trees, so we p...

    The alpine tree line boundary is seldom abrupt: it usually forms a transition zone between closed forest below and treeless alpine zone above. This zone of transition occurs "near the top of the tallest peaks in the northeastern United States, high up on the giant volcanoes in central Mexico, and on mountains in each of the 11 western states and throughout much of Canada and Alaska".[16] Environmentally dwarfed shrubs (krummholz) commonly form the upper limit. The decrease in air temperature with increasing elevation creates the alpine climate. The rate of decrease can vary in different mountain chains, from 3.5 °F (1.9 °C) per 1,000 feet (300 m) of elevation gain in the dry mountains of the western United States,[16] to 1.4 °F (0.78 °C) per 1,000 feet (300 m) in the moister mountains of the eastern United States.[17] Skin effects and topography can create microclimates that alter the general cooling trend.

    Did you have to bother to get FAA approval for this, is there a carveout for these kinds of beyond line of sight flights, or is there just not enough enforcement after the fact to need to bother (e.g. breaking the law videos with cars or bikers on the road leading to arrests once discovered)? Also, was this a programmed flight path, or was it a true ad hoc exploration with live reactions from live camera feeds over a seemingly impossible long range, high altitude distance? Asking from the perspective of a finance, business person who is/has been involved in some commercial drone investments, and this defines what I thought could be possible. I got the impression that this was a precalculated path and the drone was positioned ahead of time, days or weeks in advance and took off from a dock after an automatic or manual trigger. Whatever the case, stunning and mesmerizing footage, and also very impressed with the display of professionalism and timing!
