It's been a while since I've posted a construction video of the area between Fenney and the Turnpike. I had been editing some footage off and on over the last two weeks but have scrapped it all after making this flight on 12/7/18.
I had sent my main drone (the Dove) off for a service replacement and was without for about 2 1/2 weeks. In the interim I purchased a second drone, a Mavic Pro that I call the Hawk and had been playing with it as well as keeping very busy with getting things off the ground (yes a pun) with the drone club.
This was the maiden flight for the Dove 2, what you are seeing is about 90% of the flight. Edited out was the takeoff and controls test, a short high speed test run, about 30 seconds I was hovering to talk, and the landing. In all a very aggressive 1st test flight that went exceptionally well.
This video shows the rapid progress in McClure and the start of home building in Marsh Bend that started just over three weeks ago. You'll also see the new Pitch and Putt course north of CR468 on the opposite side of the road of the cemetery. If you look closely you'll see them removing the temporary roadway on the north side of CR468 that was put in during the tunnel and traffic circle construction. As the flight moves south you will see the Linden and Monarch Grove villages under construction as well as the Village and Neighborhood Recreation Centers under construction.
The video is uploaded in 1080p and is best enjoyed when viewed full screen instead of windowed on the webpage or YouTube app.
The Drone Flyers Club meets the 4th Wednesday of the month at 9:00 AM at the Burnsed Recreation Center. There is no meeting in December being the day after Christmas. The club's web page is DRONE FLYERS CLUB - Home (http://droneflyertv.com)
While we are not having a meeting this month we are having a training and practice event on Saturday December 29th. The event is designed especially to help those that may be getting a new drone soon to learn how to fly safely and understand the laws and rules. More detail will be coming out about the event in the next few day.

I hope everyone enjoys the video and the accompanying music. Please subscribe to my YouTube page and leave comments if you enjoy my work.
Sorry about the disclaimer at the beginning of the video, a necessary evil.
Thanks
