Agard Street, Derby - A street going through change - Part 17 Drone footage. June 30th 2024 | 4K

This is my drone footage of Agard street in Derby Filmed June 30th 2024.
I've been driving down this street pretty much every day for 35 years and seen lots of changes in that time. Currently there are a lot of changes happening with several new developments on both sides of Agard Street.
Sir Peter Hilton Court now completely demolished and will be replaced by a new business school run by the university, which it says will be home to the college of business law and social sciences.
There are plans for 32 apartments, 166 apartments and 142 apartments.
Best viewed on a large computer screen or smart TV as this is recorded in 4K resolution with great music so a real waste watching it on a small phone screen. Did you know you can cast it to your smart tv from the CZcams app?

Information on my drone flying :
● My drone is a Class C0 drone sub-250g type, because its such a lightweight drone (236g), I'm allowed to fly it over residential and commercial property and people (but not crowds) without permission.
● I passed the theory test and have both valid flyer ID and Operator ID's.
● I have drone insurance (£5 million public liability insurance cover).
● I strictly follow all the CAA guidelines on flying my drone.
● I always fly in Cinematic mode (slow speed) as this is safer in urban environments.
● I plan all of my flights in advance of taking off to ensure I know my complete flight path and am aware of any obstacles in the way.
● In order to maintain VLOS (visual line of sight) with my drone I use extremely bright Strobe lights, if there are trees or buildings in my way then I have to land and carry on from a different location this means that I often have to join bits of flights together, I try and line up edits using telemetry to match altitude and position etc. but its not always possible to get good joins in clips so this can mean jump cuts and fades between clips.
● I carry out a risk assessment before each flight and ensure all batteries fully charged, GPS has a good fix etc.
● I always engage with anyone nearby informing them the reason for my flight.
Thanks
Andy

It’s insane how much this area has changed. Always love going through it and seeing the progress.

[@comedyhunter]

oh yes unbelievable just how much has changed on this road over the last 30 years.

Maybe when it's all finished you could do some sort of compilation of your videos from Agard Street - showing all the weekly changes 🤔

[@comedyhunter]

yes maybe, I think its meant to open next year.
