Gigafactory Texas! This is where Model Y’s, and Cyber Truck production happens and soon, the Next Generation Car!
I thought I'd celebrate four years of flying a drone and documenting the construction of Giga Texas, from the very beginning to present day. When I first started this journey, I honestly had no idea what was in store, how the construction process would go, or how long I'd be flying and documenting this amazing facility!
Along the way, I became friends with many people who work at Giga Texas, from the line workers and contractors all the way up to senior leadership. I've met amazing people from around the Austin area and was able to participate in all the major events and milestones for Tesla and Giga Texas.

I've been amazed at the reach of my videos to a worldwide audience of enthusiasts and genuinely great people. I've had viewers come from all areas of the earth to Giga Texas to see the factory for themselves, to meet with me and to share in the excitement. It has been so inspiring to me to see the impact my drone flying has had to so many people!
I am very fortunate to have been given such a degree of trust and support from Tesla to do this and to help document a small part of the Giga Texas and broader Tesla story, and I an thankful for each day I get a chance to fly, capture images and video, and share all of this plus information I get along the way with so many people. Something like this is very rare in the corporate and manufacturing world, and I am thrilled to be a part of it all.
Thank you to all of my viewers, subscribers and Patreons who continue to support my efforts and offer encouragement, suggestions, insights and helpful critiques. It means a lot to me to have you all along for this journey and to share something positive with each of you! Thank you!
Enough said, so it is time to get into the drone & video, take a look back at 4 years of amazing progress and change and celebrate what has come to pass, and what is yet to be realized.
Thank you for watching and I hope this has been informative, educational, and entertaining for you. If you would like, please consider supporting me via Patreon (link is in the description of this video and in the video itself) so I can continue to make and share these incredible videos.
