This looks awesome, :)

Another great video Warrick! We just had 8 nights on the Yorke Peninsula. Not much green around at this time of year. We loved the National Park.

Beautiful footage with the drone.

Woomera. "Royal Air Force" ! Royal Australian Air Force ! Originally built to support UK development of atomic weapons and associated delivery mechanisms (including rockets) from 1946 (not 1947 as is generally reported) by the Australian Government. My father was security pass no 24 to the site. At its height it had some 6,000 men in the construction phase. My father was PA to the Project Director (A/SQNLDR Alan Douglas BOUCH DSO MBE MiD). Bouch recruited many of his ex-3 Airfield Construction Squadron members from the war to join him at Woomera. The vast remainder were ex-WW2 personnel at a loose end for some reason. Formed under the then Department of Supply it past through various Departments as they were formed, renamed, abolished, etc. The RAAF did not take over until 2015. Amongst my father's duties was to take photographs of the progress and I have seen a suitcase of his contact positive that he kept of the early days (1947 to 1952) when he left to go back to Adelaide to help with a growing family. For the 1947 Federal Election, my father was appointed returning officer. The first six women to arrive in Woomera were trucked from Pimba (the nearest railhead) to take up their accommodation and duties (as waitresses in the mess hall) - three married and three unmarried. They had to vote so appeared at the polling station - and my mother met my father for the first time. He mentioned to his friend (also manning the booth) that he was going to get a dance at with that woman and facing disbelief (after all there were 6,000 competitors !) a ten-bob bet was placed. My father won it! That election caused his flight to Canberra to report on why there were a number of Communist votes cast in that polling station; the actual Communist candidate having been refused permission to attend the top secret base to campaign so had to hold his "rally' at Pimba outside the area. Quite a few were trucked there (arranged by my father). He reported that it was impossible to tell who had voted Communist because it was a secret ballot (he was stating the obvious of course). My brother and I took our mother to Woomera for a visit courtesy of the RAAF in 2015 for ANZAC Day (my father had died some years before) and she may have just been the last survivor of the "construction crew". She placed a wreath at the local memorial at the Dawn Service. The RAAF gave us a guided tour across the site and to rangehead (it was about to be rebuilt so they did not give anything away). A most enjoyable visit. (Some of the prints show the construction of No1 hanger - still there. Apparently was still in use at it was the only electronically silent hanger that could accommodate up to C-30 Hercules aircraft completely for testing. Woomera is the largest rang in the world that is basically electronically silent for aircraft testing having been recently extended for monitoring out to as far as Broome some 2000 km) Have many more tails I can retell from my parents but that is enough for now...

Thanks for your help.

Great work mate, awesome editing.

Great video Warwick, awesome drone video.

Hey warrick. Great video. I've been watching a few of your adventures. Just wondering how long have you guys been on the road now . And how much longer . We're planning on WA in 26 ..

how were the mozzies???

What time of year did you make the trip?

This is the second video of your travel I have wstched, very impressed with your photography and presentation.

Stunning drone footage , bringing back many memories .

Looks amazing guys Did you sustain any damage to the caravan??

Nice. So when can we expect part 3?

Came through this area 40 years ago, but never saw Windjana George from that perspective. This is excellent drone footage. What drone are you using? Thanks for the upload.

👍💛

Excellent coverage, enjoyed, from a fellow Aussie that has never been there. (Yet).

Enjoyed that. Definitely going there next year.

Hi guys Where did you leave your caravan when you went into bells gorge Stay safe

How many ball bearings are in there do u know? One of ours come apart and I'm.not sure if I found all the bearings or not.

Magical place, you can feel it through the screen

Stunning 😍

Thanks Warrick. I also used some loctite on the screw with the spring washer. I had already lost some ball bearings and had some damaged springs but was able to purchase suitable replacements on ebay. I purchased 4mm stainless steel ball bearings and springs 10mm long with an outer diameter of 3mm, and a wire diameter of 0.5mm.

Brilliant video, the whale shark is amazing 😍

Great drone footage, it was so windy when we were there it was too risky to send ours out 😉

Beautiful

❤❤❤ very nice 😍 video

Good set up and a very beautiful place 👍

A great spot, no matter what the "woke brigade" says - My indigenous mate told me that was the name when I asked ... staggering nice, and they grow very slowly. Black Boys will always be part of WA...

Shame about your woefully irritating choice of music for this video. You were game flying your drone so close to those tree tops, well done. My last tree top adventure ended in a $400 cherry picker bill LOL. Sorry, I'm outta here, that music arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Stunning!! I love the underwater footage!

Wow!! You are great on your drone!!! Love that little Quenda ❤ Amazing video Enjoy WA
