Hi, I will travel to NT next month from Alice to Uluru. I heard all the road is tarmac, but I want to have a dusty road for deeper exploration. Can you tell me where is the dusty road in the video and it will take much more time for this trip ? Thanks
SHUNING ZHANG That's a great trip, exactly the one we made in this video :D The main road is tarmac all the way, however there are several side roads to visit along the route. I believe the one we did in this video was to Rainbow Valley. It's 20 km extra to get there (and same way back to the main road), but worth the extra drive for the rock formation and dirt road :) There are other detours like this but I haven't tried them and can't remember the names. Many also require 4WD, this one was fine with 2WD :)
Nice video! That drone went high at the end.. Uluru is 350 meters if i remember correctly? Drone at 400 then? Would be careful, there are heli's flying around there sometimes (tours).
Richard van Pukkem was actually from a drone, flown outside the no-drone zone :) There were helicopters in the distance but made sure to keep a safe distance and got the drone straight down when I saw a helicopter far away.
Jayden Lawson There's a no-drone sign as you walk toward uluru from the parking lot, so made sure not to use it inside the no-fly area. Had I been able to, flying closer would have been even cooler :)
So Johan, have you got your fines yet from CASA ?? Flying over built up areas, over people, and clearly above 400 feet all breaches of the well defined rules of flying these things. Good luck defending yourself in court.....
So Michael, this video is over 2 years old. I admit I wasn't aware of the laws surrounding drones the way I am today. I'm curious, do you go around RU-vid looking for drone videos to comment about court proceedings on? I know there is a *ton* of videos with breaches a lot worse than this one, so you must keep yourself quite busy. If your purpose is to educate drone owners like myself there are much better ways to do that than to leave snarky comments on people's holiday videos. Good luck to you too!
thats not a drone mostly. nice try. drone means moving flying in sky view around stuff. it doesnt mean a pop video of sand views. i love being a grumpy critic on yt hahah sry
