ROB ROY Burial Site | Scottish Heroes

- Let me take you on a DJI Mini 2 flight over and around the ROB ROY Burial Site near Balquhidder.
Rob Roy MacGregor was a respected cattleman who lived in the area 3 centuries ago. Near his Burial Site, and through no fault of his own, he was branded an outlaw, and his wife and family were evicted from their house at Inversnaid, which was then burned down. After his principal creditor, James Graham, 1st Duke of Montrose, seized his lands, Rob Roy waged a private blood feud against the Duke, both raiding his cattle and robbing his rents.
Rob Roy is buried beside his wife in son in a tiny churchyard in Balquhidder, near Stirling. Here we see a close-up of Rob Roy's grave - burial site - and take a flight to see a 'drone's eye view' of the beautiful scenery around the area, including Loch Voil.

From one old guy to another, Thank You so much for letting me travel with you to places I'll never be....bless you and yours Robert.
I'm happy to take you with me, Norm. I travelled from Rob Roy's grave to Glencoe and I recorded most of the road journey. I'll include some of that in my upcoming Glencoe video for you :)
Hey there Robert 👋
I'm a 15 year old English and Belgian boy who lives in Laos, Southeast Asia. Your videos have been one of the most valuable resources on my journey to find a drone for me, and thanks to you I got to learn about the limits of the Mini 2, advantages, drawbacks, etc and mine is arriving in the mail sometime next week.
Thank you so much for putting your wholesome content out there and being such a great creator
Daniel
Daniel, I'm so glad that I have, in some part, encouraged you to take up flying a drone. You've chosen a wonderful little droid. Be sure to give it a name when it arrives, and please feel free to link to me any footage you take :)
That was so enjoyable I had to watch it twice and will be watching it again for sure. Well done!
Thanks, Herbie. This video was from part of my trip during the Summer to the Scottish Highlands. I was able to take this trip because of the generosity of so many of the subscribers and members here and I am so grateful to everyone who supported, and continues to support me to get out and about. From Rob Roy's grave, I headed to Glencoe where I took some amazing footage. That video is in production and will be on the channel for you to see later this year :)
'Breathtaking' Robert, thanks for all your efforts mate.
Thanks, Steve. It was a pleasure to get up that way to film and bring this location to people who may never get a chance to visit in person :)
beautiful scenery and atmospheric music, very relaxing
Thanks, Kieran, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. The atmosphere on the ground on that Sunday morning when I filmed this was quite amazing. It's well worth a visit early in the morning :)
Wonderful, Robert O' Scotland.
Thank you Luke. My country, my love :)
Lassie at her best again…… superb 👍😀
Thanks very much, Terry. A mesmerising location too!
No Words for this video. Just … WOW !!!
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it, erwin :)
this is my cup of tea ... 👏👍
So glad you enjoyed it, Pavel :)
A very great and impulsive Video. Now we want to see your country, too. We can feel the love to your country.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I have visited Bavaria, a long time ago, and I still remember how beautiful it was. I hope to visit again one day :)
Another wonderful video what you share with us. and again selected the right music. Thumbs up, of course
Many thanks, Michas. The music is very important to me and I always try to get the right match for the video :)
Bloody lovely watch with a great soundtrack ❤🤘
Thanks, Dave. The music is important to me. I try hard to get a good match for my footage. Thank you for appreciating that :)
Nice video Robert and another good wee history lesson
Thanks Tony. Not a lot of people know that Rob Roy is buried beside his wife and son in a simple grave in this wee churchyard :)
Great shots Robert. as per usual !!..Been there 20 years ago !!
My previous visit to the grave was approx 20 years ago too! :)
@@WindsweptRobert we were climbing munros for 2 nights
A fabulous movie Robert, thank you. Wishing you & your good Lady a Happy & peaceful New Year. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Richard. All the best to you and yours for 2022 :)
Brilliant video. Very scenic. Will need to have a wee visit there.
Better not leave it too late, Stevie - Winter is coming!
@@WindsweptRobert Winter is here Robert by the looks of it
@@stevieelder2422 I cannot disagree :(
Lovely film Robbie
Thanks, Tim. It's a mesmerising location with so much food for the eyes! :)
Beautiful video as always Rob.....excellent !!
Thanks, Mike. So much to see round that area :)
Beautifully done Rob ,loved it :)
Thank you, Nigel. That was taken on my recent trip up North which I was able to do thanks to you and others here who have supported me to get out and about :)
Robert - Once again, a champion effort! You never know whether to believe online ancestry databases, but it is possible that I might be a descendant of Rob Roy (yeah, me and 20 million others around the world!). At any rate, thanks for this very nice tribute to the MacGregors' greatest hero! Haloo, haloo, haloo, Gregalach. Cheers!
Thanks so much, MaineMan. Aye, LOL, there are many many people who claim to be descendants of Rob Roy, William Wallace, and even Robert the Bruce! They must have been quite the shaggers! ;)
really cool music, man and even better flight!!! nice job, Robert... that area is awesome!!!
Thanks K! The video does not do the area justice tbh. If only there was a way to put the smells that surround you and the tingling feeling on your skin when you are standing there!
Very nice Robert. At my age I may not make it to Scotland, my ancestral home, but your videos fill a small part of that void for me and I thank you. I loved the way you flashed the tartan and I assume it's the McGregor clan's tartan. Regards, Dan
It is indeed MacGregor tartan Dan, I'm very happy you noticed it :). You may not make it to your ancestral home, but I will be posting more of my trip to the Highlands soon and you will be able to sit with a wee dram (a whiskey) and come along with me :)
💪🏼 Very cool video, Robert! My thumbs up goes for the song 👍🏼
Thanks, Pedro, glad you liked it! :)
Hello mate ....what absolutely amazing scenery. I absolutely love your country. You're a very lucky chappy to be able to say you're a Scotsman.
Have a good weekend Rob x
Thanks very much. I am pretty lucky to have so many wonderful locations to film. If only we were as lucky with the weather. It hasn't stopped raining for 4 days now!
Brilliant loved that well done 👍 O & U mate 😊👍
It's some location, Steve! O&U pal :)
Beautiful video my friend great footage.
Thank you so much, Steven. It is quite an astounding location. The atmosphere on the ground raises the hairs on your neck for some reason. I wish I could convey that in a video! : )
Cracking video Robert. We've got such a Bonnie wee country, steeped in history and you show it off so well. Cheers
Thanks very much, George. We DO have a cracking wee country
Well put together Robert 👍
I appreciate that, Rob. Thanks very much :)
@@WindsweptRobert 🙂👍
Great footage Robert well done.I dont know if you did it but just a few yards along from the church and take a left you can park at the little bridge and fly straight along Loch Voil and see your drone fly for miles.Mine did an 8km round trip and still had lots of life in the battery Falls of Dochart Killin and Loch Tay is only 25 mins from there and great for flying.Keep up the good work
That's some great info, Geo. I was on a tight schedule and had to get to Glencoe as my next stop, so I didn't have time to look around the area much. But I'll keep a note of your advice for the next time I'm up that way :)
Beautiful Robert, took me back to my visit to Strachur church, burial site of Sir Fitzroy Maclean, the atmosphere, the smells, the silence ahhhh!
to top it off the only wee red squirrel i've ever seen bounced out of the undergrowth tae say hello. cheers for the memories bud.
Ahh, great memories, it sounds like, Wullie. I walk around the Dean Park some Sunday mornings and often see wee red squirrels hopping aboot!
nice video 🤩👍 liked & subscribed 👍, thanks for sharing 🤩
Thanks agremlin, I always appreciate your sub! ;)
One of my brothers, who preceded me by a whole year and 4 days, has gone to great lengths to get our Tartan, has a nice kilt, a sporran, and wears it with great pride. I wonder if he is on the lookout for subway grid air drafts? 🤔 Probably not a worry in Richmond Virginia. Please keep content like this in the mix, if not exclusively. It's outstanding, even if it doesn't tickle the algorithms just right!
I certainly will, John. No point living in Scotland, owning a drone, and NOT sharing footage like this!
Good job sir
Thank you, sir! :)
Another classic, Robert! Amazing footage! By the way, Tickety-Boo is a normal saying at my school now!
LOL, that's good to hear Scott! Tickety-Boo is actually the name of Billy Connelly's Film & TV production company!
WOW Robert you had the hairs on my arms standing up and also on the back of my neck, wow great video and the music complemented the Video thank you for sharing I will also share it for you as I want people that have not seen your videos to watch a master at work, regards TJK UK. PS I will come up and have a wee dram and also a fly with you and lassie.
Sounds like a plan, TJK. Just let me know when you're heading up to my area!
Stunning scenery Robert, great flying and the little historical element completed yet another nice post....👏👏☘
Thanks a lot, JJ. It's a really wonderful location. The only things I can't convey in the video are the wonderful smells that surround you, and the tingly feeling on your skin when you are standing in the churchyard!
Nicely done
Thanks NickMer. I was a bit rushed with the footage because when I arrived at the location on the Sunday morning, there was a sign saying that the Sunday Morning Service would be starting at 10am. I wanted to get Lassie up and flying and then down again and get us away before anyone arrived for the Service :)
@@WindsweptRobert maybe Lassie wanted to join in the service!!
@@nickmershev6967 No time for that! Our next stop was to be at Glencoe and we were half an hour behind schedule as it was
great video mate loved it!.
Cheers Johnny. I like to include some videos occasionally that aren't just about the technicalities of flying a drone!
Lovely
Thanks Jason, appreciate the comment :)
Nice bit of History that, very nice. Did you use a filter when flying by the water? the reflection looked stunning. Keep them coming Rob. Also have another question i will send that separately.
tbh, I cannot remember what filter (if any) I used. I filmed that early on a Sunday morning, but when I got to the Kirk car park, I saw that there was going to be a service that morning, so I kinda rushed to get the footage done before anyone arrived. I may not have had time to do a proper filter test and so this video may have been taken without a filter.
@@WindsweptRobert Was it shot in 4K at 30fps? did you have it in pro mode and did your own set up? sorry for all the questions. Your turns showed so smooth on the video mine still look jerky but its no the movement i think its me in the edit.
@@PetersReviews I'll have a wee chat with you on messenger about this, Peter.
Great video Robert, have you, or would you consider doing a post processing video as your 'always look so crisp and professional
It would be a bit of an off-tangent video for the channel, Geoff, but I'm not opposed to the idea. I have a video on the channel showing how I edit my videos, but it's just a basic one: th-cam.com/video/6Qp0K-NVYXQ/w-d-xo.html
@@WindsweptRobert I for one would be pleased to see such a video appear 😁
Another great video …… poor lassie is going to take it easy😳 are you going to tell us about the new drone?
Which new drone would that be then?
@@WindsweptRobert well you are doing such a really good job on yr channel…. Your not giving it up soon…… poor lassie is going into retirement…… so what’s next?
@@paulwaclawek2149 She ASKED about a retirement package. That doesn't mean she's going to get it - yet!
What a sperb bit of videography. You certainly have a talent or this sort of stuff Robert.
With an area like that, Peter, it's hard not to get some stunning footage :)
@@WindsweptRobert You are too modest. I live near The Gower Peninsula (quite a few castles), Swansea Bay and the Brecon Beacons, but I don't make the most of the area I'm in. I shall keep trying.
@Peter Mainwaring Thanks, Peter. The more we practice, the better we get! :)
👍😉
What was the background song? Love your video, been watching you for some months now. Keep up the good work.
Thanks very much, Sergio. The music is a song called 'Hello God' by Michael Shynes
Thanks for the reply Robert.
eehhh nice pictures - but what about ROB ROY????Or is this just meant to be a music video? It would have been nice with just a couple of words regarding rob roy and his life and ending.Who was he? I am a Dane - and I don´t know anything about Rob R
☺Ahh...good point. I suppose I was assuming that anyone who clicked on the video would already know who Rob Roy MacGregor was. My apologies for that, but I hope that because of this video you at least went on to google him and read his wiki page?
luv the history lesson.... makes me realize how close Perth and Edinburgh are to Glencoe, Fort William and Cona river. Balquhidder was on a road between the two areas... interesting .... as for being a simple cattle hustler ... meh!!! foremost he was or was not an " obedient servant " of whichever group of elitists ruled those borders during his lifetime... about donating ... wish i could... but i might suggest taking up crypto currency trading as a means of support that could " if done right " free you from turning your talent into a commercial pursuit...
I'd love to, but I think you need a base stake to get into that...
