After flying a camera drone a few times I quickly became enamored with the idea of doing a SOTA movie. It also became apparent that I didn’t want shots of me hiking with the controller in my hands so I enlisted the help of my nephew, R. Fortunately R has a bit of drone flying experience and a good cinematic eye. This short hike seemed like a good place to practice.
Jupiter and Saturn were near conjunction in the pre-dawn sky on this clear morning.
Here is last year’s write-up of the hike which is perhaps a better description of the ascent.
I didn’t work much radio as we were flying the camera a lot.
