Toward the end on that main highway, the drone kept up to speed nicely... I wonder how fast that thing can go?

It is rated to go up to 43.5 MPH while in "Follow Me" mode, but that is with Obstacle Avoidance off. When OA is on, the speed is significantly lower. I learned the hard way to keep Obstacle Avoidance on. I had it off and was going about 30MPH and it was keeping up with me quite nicely, but crashed into a tree that I thought was lower than the drone. Totalled the drone.

I also REALLY enjoyed this video...

Wish I was techy enough to do this...

What is the ball park price of a drone with those features???

THANK YOU again for sharing...

Excellent!! Loved watching it.

Just an FYI: YouTube may block your video because of the song. I've had this happen a couple of times. Sometimes you have to buy, or get, royalty free music.

Because it was recording when it crashed, the file was corrupted and not playable

Glad you enjoyed it.

As far as blocking, if anything, they would only block the audio. However, if that was going to happen, they usually do it pretty fast. Usually even before the video is done processing. I think there are artists and publishers who do not allow their music on videos and I think there are ones who don't mind

Maybe they changed things. But, it would block my whole video. I've gone to buying royalty free music. However, I do a lot of video for my business. I don't need any cease and desist / lawsuit using copyright music.

How did you dodge those trees while riding? That would have been something to try two weeks ago when my brother and I rode the dragon! What drone do you fly?

Oh, and thanks for posting

The maximum speed is 43.5 MPH, but that is with Obstacle Avoidance off. If obstacle avoidance is on, that speed is significantly reduced, but I'm not sure what the exact speed is.

No chase car. Just my drone and me. I use a Yuneec Typhoon H for the videos. I have a Mavic Air and Mavic 2 Zoom. Neither one of them can compare to the tracking capability of the Typhoon H

The drone that I use for these videos is a Yuneec Typhoon H. It has obstacle avoidance.
