Imagine using Starlink! You could go literally anywhere with a solar plane! And if you go low on power, just land somewhere remote and let the sun recharge it! I would love to fly in Africa and watch some lions!
Meanwhile in 2026: "FLYING TO JAPAN - Parrot Disco 6G SOLAR DRONE - CROSS OCEAN FLIGHT" 😛
Well said 🤣😁
Нужно сделать полет Москва-Вашингтон. Как Руст. И приземлиться у Белого Дома.
star link😎
@@POLARISFPV Да! Именно спутниковый интернет.
Put mini starlink reciver make the plane bigger 30000mah battery and will be able ;)
GOD !! Thank you for returning to this.... For all the land locked friends of the channel. Soo therapeutic I love it THANK YOU AGAIN.
That was very enjoyable for a relaxed Sunday morning here in the UK
Fantastic! My favourite video of yours. Fun, informative, great scenery, excellent commentary!
Congrats on the new pilot!!
Welcome back mate have missed your vids so much. Thank you for that beautiful tour of the beautiful islands around you and the one you live on. Congrats on your new little man. Much love to you and your family.❤❤❤❤
You question at 42.43 about Molokini. It was made by volcano underwater. It made small island. Then had a eruption and blew out side of crater and eroded part of it away. Just like mashed potatoes and gravy. Same as back side of Haleakala. Kapo gap was where lava drained out of crater. Little history lesson. Aloha. Thanks for all cool vids. Local boy living in mainland.
🤙🍻
Welcome back and congratulations on the family edition. I dont have a Disco but do have the Bebop1 and Bebop2 along with the Anafi and Dju Mini 1. Of all of them I must say the Bebop2 is my GoTo drone, Sturdy, Reliable and good enough video for generL youtube. DJI is really too light for Irish winds a lot of the time. Love your Drone reviews. Other thinng that gets me is after all the Parrot flying, I sometimes forget to turn the camera on the DJI.
I can't believe you made it out to Molokini crater. Awesome flight.
Congrats brother on the new arrival. Great vids always
WOAH! now we are talking! Solar drone. Amazinggg
Your Parrot Disco 4G videos are my absolute favorite on your channel! Thank you for making them again
Trying to get out the o'l Disco for more flights soon since we moved 🍻
@@DustinDunnill holding you to that Dustin.
This was amazing, thank you. I've been watching your content for a few years now and thinking about delving into this hobby. Watching this as I'm waiting on my mini 2 to arrive. These long flights are always my favorite!
Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the great news ❤️. Hope everyone is doing good 👍🏻
Fun story... I used to work for the company that makes the cell signal booster. When they were designing that particular model, I told one of the engineers in passing that I was going to be road tripping across the country. He then gave me a prototype of it and asked if I'd install it in my car and gather some data for them during my trip. It worked great except for a couple hiccups. Anyway, they took my data and made a few tweaks for the final product and then let me keep the prototype. I still have it and use it today.
That's awesome 👍
Aloha Dustin, Welcome back. AWESOME stuff! Love seeing the Disco back in action again. Looking forward to seeing more epic ventures with the Disco.
Hello Dustin, what a beautiful gorgeous paradise of Hawaii, awesome flying and love that extended range and photography. Hope to one day to visit that great land and sea , right now I am planning on making a trip to argentina on a motorcycle. And your drone setup would help me to document my trip as I travel thru the roads mountains and lakes. Gonna try to do your set up , might need some help here in there if you are available , thanks again for putting up some awesome videos .good job.
Good to see you back Dustin! 🤛🏻
51!!!!
The Bob Ross of the drone world is back!! Thanks for another epic flight.
This footage is excellent. I'm glad I was able to find it on CZcams. I lived in Kihei from 1987 until 2020 and hope to be moving back someday soon. Our home was on the corner of Namau'u Place and South Kihei Road right across the street from waipuilani Beach Park. Thank you again and God bless you
Congratulations bro to you and your wife for the safe arrival of you new born son. Its great to see you back
16:00 that herd that passes by in front of the drone was a pretty cool catch!
Congratulations Dustin on the new baby boy, great to see you back.
Congrats, on the addition to your beautiful Fam. Love your vids. Learn drones, solar and battery tech, geography, geology and history of Hawaii, volcanic history of the area, all thru your calm friendly voice. Picked up a disco and the 4g mod items a couple years ago, and haven't put it together yet...... this summer it will fly!
Totally awesome flight!! Enjoyed the whole video.
Congratulations on your baby boy 💙
Love your channel and looking forward to more amazing videos. Big Love from UK 🇬🇧
Thanks for the enjoyable experience Dustin. You've given me something to consider in the future about adding a "Wing" to my fleet. At least I have this wonderful video to watch until then. Hawaii is SO beautiful.
I have always wanted a nice wing!!! I might sell my fpv quads and get 1! I just can't learn acro
Glad to see you back! Congrats on the new edition to the family too. Thanks for all you do for the drone/RC community brother.
Incredible mod. I was wondering for the longest how this was possible. Thank you.
...Incredible footage, thank you for making and posting this video. Yes, at 16:04, there's a bunch of animals---wild pigs? Running along the bottom edge of the screen. Slick.
Yooooo dude just clicked on to your Chanel and just said you uploaded 1 min ago love your content dude just ordered a mavic 3 and a DJI fpv drone can’t wait to get back into the hobby love your content dude
Gratz for the new little one! Cute family! Those solar panels are expensive! The whole setup is super expensive! Plus most of the parts are no longer available. Be a pain to build this today.
Love these long videos, great to watch when I am heading to bed, puts my mind in a very restful space and always enjoy the Hawaiian scenery. Congratulations on the new addition to the family too!
What a time to be alive. Nice video! I haven’t watched it yet, but I already know. 👍🏻
Wow! What a plane.
Fantastic trip.
And... Congratulations on the birth of your most recent son.
Thanks 😊
CONGRATULATIONS on your new addition to your family! That is awesome! Nothing is better than this. Family first. Videos if/when you have the time. Cheers!
Awesome upload!
Thx for sharing!
Cheers from Bucharest Romania!❤️
That was a cell tower on Molokini. It "may" have also had some sort of light beacon on it for boat traffic as well.
Some solar-powered awesomeness :) Amazing flight Dustin, thanks for the trip
Hey Mark. Thanks 🍻
Fantastic video ... proof we are living in the future. Thank you.
Just amazimg continue this type of drones...
Congrats on the little one! That's awesome.
Congratulations on the new keiki!! Awesome flight! 🤙🏾
Congrats on the health baby boy 🙏🏽
Great video. Please keep producing them, especially over the coast line around the island. They are helping to relax after work, and dream about visiting Hawaii someday. Thanks in advance.
Wow! 40 miles! What an amazing accomplishment!
Great to see you back Dustin, and Congratulations to you and your wife on your new son. Excellent video as usual. Keep them coming! Also, if there are any lower priced Quads you might have to Demo would be great. Some of us don't fly enough to warrant purchasing a Cadilac and prefer a Buick, if you know what I mean. Something under 400.00 to 500.00 price range would be nice. Thanks Dustin and hope to see more videos soon.
Cool man, love the technology
It is actually more efficient to go faster when battling headwinds. Rule of thumb is to add 1/2 the headwind to aircraft airspeed. I.e. if you cruise at 50mph and have a 20mph headwind, increase airspeed by 10mph to 60mph. You'll get more actual range this way.
Interesting 🍻
@@DustinDunnill think of it this way, if your AirSpeed is the same as the WindSpeed your ground speed will be zero and you will never actually get anywhere. Pilots learn how to calculate exactly the right speed but the formula I suggested before is pretty close
This plane has a pitot tube for air speed so I'm thinking it must adjust power accordingly on its own since it will basically fly itself when off the sticks and seems to gain ground no matter wind resistance. The C.H.U.C.K all-in-one flight controller is a pretty amazing unit 🍻
@dustin dunhiill this seems like a hoax?
Impersonating me to scam viewers. Please report their channel 🍻
Wow, what a cool trip! Congrats on another the new addition to your ohana.
Wish i had this drone, awesome video bro as love the long range and solar you added to it. 👍👍 Life is Good!
Good seeing you again buddy! Beautiful baby! That was an epic flight! My, how that thing flew for such a long time! You might need to do an oil change! LOL! Had never heard for a Solar Drone! Thanks for sharing!
Shame parrot discontinued all their consumer models..fixed wing is superior with regards to power consumption
Congrats on the new arrival, glad to see you back in action, always interesting to watch your channel.
What an awesome way to come back! 4g Disco😎
Brilliant If the air turbulence wasn't so heavy here in the mountains I'd take one
Great to see you back! Just so you know, if you turn off wifi on an iPad from the control centre, your wifi will still be on it will just turn off the ability to connect to a wifi network temporary. If you want it to not interfere at all you should go in the settings and turn it off there. You will see the wifi logo grey in the control centre and that means that it's turned off! The same goes for bluetooth. Hope to see more in the future! :)
Congratulations to you and your family for the new baby. This is really the best kind of remote flying. This has the feeling of real adventure about it. Dustin makes it all seem easy and relaxed but I’m sure he feels the excitement of it all. I’m impressed by the 4g coverage in such remote areas. There are dead spots all over my town and not just because of buildings. Another great video. Thanks for sharing it.
Awesome trip, very impressed. Dustin, you are the BEST. Thanks for your great videos Bro.
Congrats on your baby boy what a bundle of joy
Dustin. First of all congratulations to you and your wife on the birth of your beautiful baby! Best wishes to your family.
So happy to see you back out with the Disco on a fantastic scenic and epic flight- WOW!!! Loved it. Please please do more with the Disco. I still have mine and to be honest not flown it for a few years, but this summer will definitely be getting some new batteries and will be flying some adventures here in the UK, thanks to you. Again best wishes and i look forward to seeing more of your awesome videos. Cheers George. :)
Finally you post another video after more than a month. I am glad you posted again.
Love ur vids bro... congrats on the baby. Can't wait to see ur other vide..😎😎👍👍🤙🤘👌💥💯
I wish I could afford a drone like this!
CONGRATULATIONS DUSTIN!!
I always like the Disco videos from you, i sold mine because here in germany its just not so nice because of the tight space and rules etc.. I started with the F550 Flywheel with the DJI Naza 1, Phantom 1,2,3 switched to a Disco and since some years i dont own a drone anymore but when they release a new DJI mini i would think about buying it. ITs under 250g and dont create much attention, has a really good range.
Hey, da gebe ich dir Recht! Die Regeln in Deutschland lassen kaum noch (legales) Fliegen zu. Und selbst wenn man sich an alle Regeln hält zeigen irgendwelche Möchtegern Sherifs mit den Finger auf einen. Mein Tipp: Einfach fliegen. Am besten da, wo keiner einen entdeckt.
Beste Grüße,
Joschi
P.S.: Mein Disco kommt bei mir in den nächsten zwei Tagen an :)
@@FPVJoschi Die Discos gab es vor ein paar Jahren wirklich sehr günstig auf Ebay, um die 300 Euro neu, kenne die heutigen Preise nicht aber da konnte man kaufen ohne sich einen Kopf zu machen ob man es braucht oder nicht :) Ich habe bei meiner nur die Servos getauscht gegen hochwertige weil die originalen nicht so gut sein wollen. Ich komme halt eher von Quadcoptern, deswegen würde ich wenn dann lieber eine von den neuartigen VTOL Drohnen kaufen, die auch senkrecht landen können oder eben wieder einen Quadcopter.
@@danbarb9728 ich habe im FPV Treff Forum einen neuen Disco original verpackt für 300€ bekommen. Nur einen neuen Akku brauch ich dafür.
Ich werde auch erstmal mit dem Stock Setup fliegen.
Später dann Li-ion Akku und LTE Softmod.
Habe mir gerade schon von Fressnapf einen GPS Tracker geholt für den Fall das der Wing mal abstürzt im nirgendwo.
Copter fliege ich auch viel.
Aber nur 2-3 Zoll
Amazing video. I love these long distant flights with the commentary 👍🏼
Thank you Dustin that u chose the Disco as ur Favourite Plane. Trust me Bro, it really is. So proud that I own one since 2017. Sad that Parrot has discontinued it.
Congrats on junior !!!! and on a side note that solar beauty is definitely in my sights if you ever decide to part with it :-)
Brilliant video, with a truly fantastic commentary - so laid-back, informative and interesting, all at once...
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Dunnill. The flight was great as well.
5G can use the same frequencies as 4G but more efficiently and very high frequencies 30Ghz to 300Ghz. Next test 5G modem. Enjoyed the video.🇿🇦🇺🇦
Yeah but the range and penetration takes a hit. Also good luck finding coverage in any non-metropolitan area.
5g is a fake marketing scam. If it is not using the new frequencies it is just 4g with a fancy hat on. The speed of the transmission is based on the frequency. How many cycles it has per second.. you will never get higher then that without using compression technology which they already do. The higher the frequency the less distance it travels and the less likely it is to go through walls, trees, rain, snow, fog, dust, buildings, even humans. If you are not downtown in a major city your phone is lying to you if it says 5g in the corner. Att is very bad at that because it's just a big commercial for something that 99.9999% of people do not need. 4g has the ability to stream 5 hd movies at once to your cellphone.. 5 g has the ability to stream 50. Can you watch 5 streams at once😲
A 4g tower can cover 100s of square miles.. a true 5g tower can cover 1 or 2. It's insane to watch them push technology on people that is not needed and misunderstood.
It's just a scam IMHO.
Also IMHO the Ukraine is a laundromat for Western political elite to wash up billions of dollars they scam for themselves. How does one go from a nobody to a billionaire in a few short years without making a revolutionary invention? Selling out entire nations and collecting a percentage of the proceeds.
Next Disco+Scylink net.)
Great video Dustin. I love Maui. My wife and went on our honeymoon there in 2013. We are hoping to make it out next year for our 10 year. Thanks for making these awesome videos!
Great to see you back Dustin,best wishes to you and your family
🥳 TAIKA.... CONGRATULATIONS -- NEW DADDY!!
Your kids will no doubt inherit the family MEGA-INFLUENCER biz. 😎
Frist of all CONGRATULATIONS on your new addition. Seeing pics of Kaoulave(sic) brought me back some memories. Spent some time in the Navy trying to sink that island. Glad we never succeeded. Great video. Amazing the distance of this flight. Give some motivation to try fly my drone.
Congratulations 🎉!!!! Make sure his first toy is a quadcopter lol 😆
Best video I’ve seen in a long time. I literally felt like a bird with pure freedom.
I’d love to get into this hobby, how much does it cost to get started doing this? You earned a sub!
I always feel relief when the soccer field is in view on these distance flights. If I was ever to visit Hawaii the number #1 place I would want to visit first with my drone would be this field.
I went to Maui in 2019 and recognised a bunch of landmarks (like the aquarium) that you pointed out in your previous Disco flights, it was so weird that I knew what was coming up even though I'd never been before! My 4g Disco is a bit dead at the moment, this makes me want to resurrect it or get another one if I can find one reasonably priced!
You are blessed my brother! Once again congratulations to you all and happy belated to the little man🎂🎊🎆🎇✨️🎈🎉🎁👍🏾👏🏾😃
I've been hooked on your vids ever since you flew that epic island-to-island flight years ago. It's sometimes very few other people are doing.
Have you considered making a video where you fly something to a friend and fly back? It could go kinda viral.
Great video again Dustin you sure live in a beautiful country.
Would the ZMO VTOL be a good starter to build a 4g FPV as well? It has drone mode so it can stand still as well
Great to see you flying the Disco again. The go anywhere, and altitude Drone....🤔😳😳😀🇬🇧
Thank you so much for sharing! Would love to try this.
Congrads bro!, so glad you back flying the disco
i popped a beer. Awesome flight!! I want this...but I want a VTOL.
T-Mobile's 5G Uses 600 MHz and 2500 MHz for longer distances. They also use the shorter distance millimeter wave stuff, but mainly in the denser urban areas.
Congratulations guy! Hope you and the family are doing well. Also, welcome back ☺
Congratulations to you and your family!
Thank you. Congratulations on the new family member. 😃👍
Congrats on the new kid Dustin! :)
Happy Sunday everybody! Congratulations Dustin on your new family member. Praise the Lord. 😃👌
1:01:01
Big sigh of relief ... WAIT WHAT!
I was anxious the whole flight LOL going over the sea was impressive, coming back even more!
congratulations and good to know you are such an experienced flyer!!
Congratulations on your new blessing Dustin
Thanks Bro
I have the RV jet and basically did kinda the same. The longest I was able to go with mine was 52 miles and I got nervous a d brought it back. Haha. I'll eventually go and maybe send someone on ahead just to see how far I can go with it. I love the RV jet. I have the bead tracking as well as many other cool bells and whistles..haha
prove it.
Great to see you are still using the old disco! I've gotten hold of an almost equally old phantom 3 advance, which I'm hoping to sell/swap to get a disco.
Amazing
