Flew my Solo up in the Lake Tahoe hills. I was supposed to shoot video of our niece's wedding but a firmware update was just loaded and I didn't want to take a chance on any mishaps ruining the wedding ceremony. So instead, took it up for a flight the day after from the cabin we were staying at. There was a bit of gusty winds above the tree line but it flew extremely well both above and below the treeline and even next to the cabin without any issues. I took off and landed from the 2nd floor deck. Did some flying around and one selfie that went perfectly.
Even without the gimbal, the video was quite good with no jello. This is raw video with no post production/stabilization. The breeze started picking up towards the end so I cut my flight short. After 8+ minutes of flight I still had roughly 65% on my battery.
Enjoy!
