Feeling the Fear! | Why am I so resistant to flying my drone 🚁😱

[@TerryMcGearyScotland]

I empathise regarding 'drone anxiety'. Had my Mini 3 Pro over a year but still experience fly anxiety! There is a lot to be aware of like people, helicopters, officialdom, wind variability, birds, wires, etc. And on top of that piloting smoothly, getting the shots, gimbal motion, exposure . Viewers look and think how calming! They don't know the half of it, lol! To be honest I've never had anything from people but polite interest, and officaldom hasn't come my way ...yet! I'm least anxious in areas like you're in though where my biggest worry was losing te drone heather. But I've got over that. I've wrecked props twice and that's helped me chill a bit 🙂 Your over the cliff wave shot is brilliant and brave considering the updraughts you can get. Thanks for sharing your thoughts along the walk. Atb...Terry

@@TerryMcGearyScotland thanks so much Terry. It’s never as bad as I expect once the thing is in the air! I think part of it is having had a few numpties giving uav users a bad rep I’m always conscious to avoid upsetting anyone 😬
