Heavy storms hit this area and damaged a small town(Perry, MO). It also heavily damaged the Black Jack Marina at the Mark Twain Lake. This is some aerial views of the damage done by the storm in the town and the marina. There is no music added to this video because I didn't feel it was appropriate in this case. Thanks for watching.

This is a bit of a sad video. My friend I were flying and we saw some smoke so we decided to fly out and take a look. We didn't hear any sirens so we thought maybe it was just a large brush fire that would be cool to film. It turned out it was someones home that was fully engulfed. We called 911 and reported it and it took what seemed like 30 minutes before fire crews arrived. By that time we had left the area so not to interfere. The area is very rural and the house is secluded in the woods. We found out that no one was hurt but that the house was a total loss. edit: We found out later that the home owners 3 dogs perished in the fire. Very very sad news.

This is the aerial video that I was able to grab during our family vacation to Colorado and Northern New Mexico. Most of this video was unplanned and I just pulled off the road and launched the drones. No planning was involved so some of the footage and flying could be better but all in all,I think it turned out well. It's a long video so I have created chapters below so that you can skip to different sections. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed seeing it and filming it. Thanks for watching.

Ok I know this isn't a drone video but its kind of got a ASMR feel to it with the sound of the ocean and its pretty cool as well. This was the first video I ever tried to edit so don't ding me too bad. This was taken at the Big Island of Hawaii on the western side of the island close to Kona. These huge animals come to feed on plankton that are drawn in by the bright lights that are shined into the water. The Manta's have been conditioned to feed there because of these lights. You really cant tell how big they are in the video but their wingspan is about 6ft 6in wide. They can get even bigger. This was one of the highlights of the trip and is totally worth doing if you are vacationing there. Hope you enjoy.

The UP #4014 Big Boy ran through central Missouri today. I decided to catch it from the air and do a little chase. This thing was really moving. It actually was pulling away from me and the Air 2S was in sport mode flying at 43 mph. Not my finest camera and chase work but it was good practice. Hope you enjoy!

This is a small tribute to those that have served and gave their lives so that we can be free. We remember and honor your sacrifice. We will never forget. The video was taken at the Jefferson Barracks Memorial Cemetery in south Saint Louis county. The cemetery is a beautiful yet somber reminder of the men and women who have laid down their lives in the service of this great country. The aerial views show you the scale and the sheer size of the cemetery and the numbers laid to rest here. I purposely flew high so as not to disturb family members visiting the family members they have lost. Thank you for taking the time to watch this video.

This my newbie flight with the DJI Avata. This was probably my 3rd set of batteries I had flown with the Avata. I am controlling it with the DJI FPV drone controller, not the motion controller. We are flying down at the 'usual' spot at the river. I love this little quad. Its easy to fly for newbies like me and after a few flights I had the confidence to fly it places I would have never tried with the other FPV quads I have been attempting to fly . The goggles are amazing from a viewing perspective but the fit takes some adjusting to. Thanks to John Cuppi for letting me fly it so much. Special thanks to Jack Dodson for letting us borrow his quad so that we could fly it and test it and just have fun with it. This little thing is a blast. Check out Johns channel for more Avata vids.

This is some new and older footage of some river barges I caught on the Missouri River and Mississippi River. I added some foot stomping blues to the video because it seemed fitting. I know they're just barges but they are huge and boats are just cool right? Hope you like it and thanks for stopping and taking a look.

A little lunch time fun out at the Missouri River. The ice floes are moving down the river so I put the gimbal in FPV mode so it 'kind of' has the look of an FPV drone with no stabilization. This was just a little fun experiment with the DJI Mini 2 plus it also gave me an opportunity to try some different music. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for watching!

Some video of a flight down at Bull Shoals Lake in the Ozark mountains. Flight was over 2 two days so the lighting changes a bit. Had a close call with some wires which I left in the video. Its a very pretty area to fly in. Enjoy the video. Thanks for watching.

Short video of areas in Colorado and New Mexico taken with the DJI Air 2S and the Mini 2. This was taken in October of 2021. Hope you enjoy!

Flying my DJI Mavic Mini out at the Osage River. My first edited drone video. A lot of things wrong that need improvement but not bad for the first time.
