"Loch Raven Reservoir - Summer"

This is the "Summer Edition" of a 74,099' (14.03 miles) autonomous Litchi mission above the Loch Raven Reservoir in Dulaney Valley, MD. The flight was performed by the Phantom 4 "Night Fury". Real-time footage runs nearly 30 minutes, so the video is presented at 2x speed to reduce it to ~15 minutes.Show more

I achieved the long flight length by creating the full mission, then separating it into two segments. The end point of the first segment is the start point for the second. The two were spliced together in post. The video was recorded in 1080 x 60 fps with the camera set to full auto. I used a Polar Pro Cinema Series ND16-PL filter during the flight with no post color correction. I plan on returning in Fall to record the mission with the trees sporting their Fall colors.
