Enjoyed the film?, support my channel and buy me a coffee x buy.stripe.com... / @aerialdronevision DRONE OVER CANVEY 🏝 DJI Mavic Air 2. A flight over Canvey island showing the 3rd road off the island part wise now in the making
Thanxxxx Julie, and thanks for letting me know you like the bearing points, I’ll be mixing up films which will include a mix of the following, or any one, playful, relaxing, informative, educational, scenic, wildlife, canvey and surrounding, woods/parks/places to walk :) and yes it was such a nice day I pretty much finished the filming for the next Canvey Wick fill(coming soon), be-safe n well Julie 👍
Northwick Road also known as Canvey Dragstrip. Used to work at the derelict oil refinery, had to patrol the site in a Mk2 Ford Fiesta, fine during the day but very creepy of a night time. Saw lots of wildlife on patrol like Badgers 🦡, adders and foxes 🦊, Barn Owls 🦉, wish I had taken photos now before it was all pulled down.
Lol yes I can see why, nice and straight, oh wow I can imagine wildlife was ripe, I’ve never seen a barn-owl in the wild. Sure, I bet that was creepy at night, it’s not as if there’s anyone around to hear you scream 😂 👻
When I lived on Canvey in the sixties there was only one rickety opening bridge which often broke down by Benfleet station. There also used to be an annual sailing race around the Island. Not much chance of that now!
Great vid. Satisfied a curiosity I've always had about that road. Preferred the style of this one too, less is more. And I love the smooth action of that gimbal - you don't get that with the Zino.
Thanks, I smile as I appreciate your view of less is more, I still often go too far with graphics etc for fun and to highlight what’s happening. But I’ve come to realise I enjoy producing both and strive towards producing powerful, cinematic footage while using graphics on other material to look after those that like that side. I’m still working on gimble smoothnesss including avoiding panning while in flight, it has smoothness settings that brake pan and tilt movements so as to bring them to gentle, smooth stops, very helpful but still learning and enjoying cheers 👍 I’ve never owed a Hubsan, isn’t that the 5g connecting drone? I hear they are ok but the more you spend the easy it is to use 😊👍
Very interesting and great filming, I canoed from two tree island all the way around canvey fourty odd years ago but I don't recall seeing that bridge although time can do funny things with ones memory. I can see that the cars have come through from the other direction, possibly on from what used to be the redlands pearl dump which used to join on to marsh road pitsea.
Thank you loads nice of you to say, cheers. I’m not exactly sure if it’s build date, I’ve traveled under it a few times, I respect the engineering, clever stuff.
Nice work. A shame that pedestrian access is prevented by gates along those paths though, and of course it's not possible to cross over at the flood barrier. A cycle path (at least) from Northwick Road right through to Fobbing Marsh would be good.
Thank-You, I like your thinking!, let’s say that’s a fantastic idea, if they open just a footpath(which I’m sure they could), Canvey folk and of course cycling/pedestrians from the other side could be blessed with a great extension to our leisure.
I hope this helps, The extensive sea wall, completed in 1982, is 15 miles (24 km) long and surrounds 75% of the island's perimeter terminating with flood barriers spanning Benfleet Creek to the north and East Haven Creek in the west.
@@aerialdronevision Ah okay. Have been reading up on the video downlink options for the Mavic 2. Was kinda hoping there'd be analogue downlinks, as I have a home receive set up for 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz. Many years ago I could easily view the local police helicopter downlinks... ;)
@@aerialdronevision oh nice, I’d been thinking of trying to fly over that way, wasn’t sure of the best spot. I’d considered setting up on the sea wall at some point in the middle
@@ddshiner in case your unaware SITES OF SPECIAL SCIENTIFIC INTEREST (SSSI) ,mustn’t be flown over, to avoid trouble 😊. This should help naturalengland-defra.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/f10cbb4425154bfda349ccf493487a80_0/data?geometry=0.522%2C51.508%2C0.566%2C51.531 And this to keep you and others safe 👍dronesafe.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Drone-Code_July2019_WEB.pdf
In case it’s of interest to you, Ive just posted my latest film on my RU-vid Channel here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oWZHyJk94UU.html . It’s a flight from Canvey road Tidal barrier, to East Haven Creek tidal Barrier, Be-Well 👍
Not true, it is a third road as it’s often crossed by maintenance personnel and It’s for emergency 🚨 🆘 use only. The title is third road off Canvey as known to us islanders Dave, it’s more a reference what it could be if viable, which it’s not or it would be easing canvey traffic 😂
