Good lesson coupled with a humorous personality that held my attention from start to finish. Well done sir.

I just purchased a Phantom 3 Standard. My first ever RC anything. I really like your videos, thank you for posting. I hope to make great family videos of our RV travels. You are going to be a great resource.

Glad to see you holding the controls with a "pinched " grip instead to thumb on top. I find this way of flying to be much smoother with much more precision control. Awesome !

I've been trying to figure out how to rotate around an object properly. You sir have gained Ana subscriber. Thank you for the tutorial!

the mic joke deserves an automatic thumbs up that was funny.

Ken, I watched this video several times when you first made it. I laughed pretty hard about the micapeepee. Got another laugh this time too.

Great tutorial Ken, to the right is ok but to the left is something else. Same here. 👍😎 I love your goggles

Loves seeing how genuinely happy you were.

It's way too early here in Germany right now. And I'm almost on my way to work. But those videos make me smile. Gonna get my smile to the workplace and be a little bit happier throughout my day. Thanks.

This is where being a retired heavy equipment operator comes in handy. Still, practice makes perfect!

I always get so bored watching tutorial videos, but dude, you've nailed it - Keep up the great work! I'm heading out to practice now :)

Another cool video Ken. I'm learning all I can online. My Phantom 4 arrives by 10:30am this Friday! I love the suggestion of going down the side of a structure to gauge clearance, then you can ascend upwards without the fear of running into the structure. In this case, it helped that the tower gets smaller the higher you go so it gets even further from the Phantom. Be careful catching the Phantom. Just a suggestion, lower it to above your head, stop the descent, then grab it. One small slip and your drone slice and dice your fingers and plummets to the ground.

Can someone please tell me the time stamp where he tells us how to do the orbit rather than just doing it and not showing how without explaining?

Nice ! I've always wanted to fly around a fire tower

i learn a few with your video, my drone is coming and i spend many time watching videos like this, thanks men !

Hey Ken, that was very entertaining and informative, thanks for the vid

great video! just got a phantom 4 and I'm loving it

Get a cup and fit it with a small short selfie stick or something. Stick it into the cup holder and fit the OSMO to the top of your little mini tower. Put a little "T" of the side to turn it and you have a great little camera rig for the car.

Enjoy all the videos. FYI, the tower brought back some ol' college memories...there was a tower like the one you shot near our school. We were were able to climb to the top. What a view!

I love your videos man. Great tutorials. I've had my P4 for a couple weeks and loving every day with it. Used a toy one prior so I had a little bit of knowledge but your videos help so much.

Ok it's official I'm hooked. This channel is a must watch if your into flying drones.

That's a fine orbiting man.....good job!

Having practiced this a number of times, via line of sight, with totally manual, cheapy quads, I really want to get me a Phantom, so I can improve on those manual orbits. It sure is fun to have an eye in the sky like this :) . Keep on flyin' bro.

great tutorial, would have been nice if you had shown us the the finger movement on both the left and right sticks in detail when orbiting

great video the quality of the camera is something else

I know as a RC pilot I can fly Orbits without any problem, great video.. more pilots should practice this stuff

This was AWESOME! Thanks for this great video

I started watching your videos a month back and ever since then ..i eagerly wait for your videos to be uploaded!! cheers!!!

This type of basic skill I need to practice. Great job.

Lol Ken it does . Another super great flight Ken.Liked this one for learning thank you

Really wanted to give a thumbs up but dinged you bc you were driving distracted. It was like texting and driving. BUT you are very entertaining and I did learn from the video. Please be safe. Thanks!

I just love your personality Ken..you r Awesome

You ARE the man!! Thanks.

Awesome info, love your channel I just found. You make it look so easy.

Thank you so much for sharing and teaching us! :)

As a beginner with DJI Spark, I am impressed by your skillful maneuvering of the drone. However, I will buy a DJI Mavic Air for my own 75th birthday. Best to buy it yourself because no one else will give it to me as a gift ...

Such positive energy, I love it!

Change expo to .20 across the board. It makes for way smoother shots- well done! Ken👍🏻

Wow. I'm impressed.

Wow! That is absolutely amazing Ken! I would have dumped my DJI P4 in no time flat. Your laugh is so infectious. Thank you for this video. ♥️👍🏼🙏🏼

Well done! Skills are needed, the auto modes are to easy, Its a good idea for me to go back to the manual modes, thanks for the video!!

Hi thanks for this and you're too funny. I hope and pray you get well soon.

nice video. just bought my phantom 4 last weekend. watching a lot of videos before my first flight. Have subscribed.

you can also put it in active track mode select the tower and then fly around it using your right stick ( aileron ) then you can still go closer and higher / lower doing a perfect circle at the same time. I like the combination of manual and auto together to make beautiful shots

hay ken. I live right here in jackson and learning to fly the phantom. so far its been a blast. great video and keep it up

i've been looking for this for the whole time! thanks for making this tutorial

Lol u are crazy. I'm glad I found u in the fairly early days. This channel is sure to grow. U bring great personality and freshness. Keep up the great work. Greetings from Barbados

great lesson ken!

I really liked your second to last shot where you went up the tower and away, it looked great!

Your videos are always fun to watch thank you Ken.

Scrollers unite!!!!!! Great video Ken.. as always....that case looks just like my spark case. Nice...

Hi ken, your videos are huge help for me. Thank you very much. Keep them coming.

I can't wait for mine to come in! so excited

Uncle Ken... thats just COOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Don't take risks when you're driving mate, get a mount for your safety and others. Great video by the way!

man must say I enjoyed watching your videos on the P4 keep them coming you just got a new subscriber from Boston, MA

thanks ken just got a ph4 and enjoy ya videos trying to learn alll i can

love it 😍 a thumbs up 😎😎

Thanks Ken, your timing couldn't have been better....I've come across a statue of Eros in a local park and was considering how to fly an orbit. I've gotten a clearer idea now. Hand on heart I missed the live shows as I forgot, but I'll try and catch the next. Take care and safe flying. Peter.

Hey Ken, I absolutely love all of your drone videos and I just got my mavic mini!

Nice video, once again, KZfaq has taken away my like and comment a long... time ago. I really appreciate the tutorial for filming and maneuvering the flight, well done. Glad to see you again, pre-accident, LOL! Take Care!

A+ video thanks Ken for sharing.

Nice , good for your skills.

Rotary Rotary! 👍🏻 I watch your videos for the drones but didn't know you had a rotary. Awesome!!!

us private pilots were taught to call that turns about a point. AWESOME video, as usual

Nice Tuto! Thanks Ken... Good Job!

Beautifully done!

You learn something New Everyday , Great Video BTW !!!!!!!!

Hi Ken, loving your videos all the way over in England and yes we do use the gear shift with our left hand over here but we call it the gear stick lol. Had my P4 for less than 24 hrs and I'm loving it after using an fc40 it's frekin crazy man :)

That's really good I need to practice that

great vid. I have been trying to do similar things with my P3P.

Hi my friend thank you very much for the great movies and yes it's a great car I absolutely agree with you

I am working on that orbit while backing away smoothly. Like the question "How do I get to Carnegie Hall?" Practice Practice Practice.

love the energy ken.... keep up the amazing work u r doing and also keep putting up vid's.....

Good video Mr Heron x I will try that I didn't think to go around, I tend to just glide on by

You have a real skill for flying there Ken. I am still at the stage where I hit trees. BIG! Beautiful countryside too. I love trees but in the wilds of Scotland they get blown away.

Awesome video Ken. You're an awesome pilot and instructor. I'm gettin the Phantom 3 Standard later this week, and I think your tutorials will help me a lot. Really good, smooth flight. One of the best I've seen.

Muy buen trabajo, excelentes videos, saludos desde San Luis Potosí, Mexico

Smooth flying skills and orbit! Thanks for demonstrating how you do it. I'll give it a try too. Greetings from Switzerland 😎👍

Thanks !

nice work!!

Idk what you were doing while driving but in the uk, we use a clutch pedal and our left hand to change gear (sat on right side of course.)

Really cool

Awesome Ken... Thanks for sharing your tips/tricks. I really enjoy your channel. ✌🏻️

Hi Ken, I try to watch most of your post, but i just want to say THANK YOU for that trick i got from you on how to move move the camera gimbal up and down with my ring finger and still use the left stick at the same time.

Great smooth flying there. You make it look easy. Soon, I'm going to purchase an MJX Bugs 3 Pro which features circling as an intelligent flight mode. Though what I am not happy about is that in order to access this feature, I have to spend extra money on a phone with G5 in conjunction with the special app and also go out and buy an MJX camera (sold separately) to connect to the quad, and which has a fisheye lens (which I don't want.) Too many $$ and hoops to jump through just to do circles. So instead, I'm going to use my own camera (with non-fisheye lens) and learn to fly in circles manually. I know it's going to take lots of practise but I'm determined to get there. Ive actually been flying fully manual quadcopters (with no gps) for the last few years but I haven't done circles before. I'm looking forward to giving them a try.

Great job on your close up. Driving a drone from a 2d screen is hard. I have actually a video from line of sight and guessing where the cam should be. It cam out perfect and my boss now is interested in the drone for work applications.

Thank you for the awesome tutorial..

What a great explanation. That looks like it would take a lot of practice. One question, which I haven't tried yet, but if you move the right stick forward and the left stick to the left, does the drone change direction to fly where the camera is pointing?

Nice position for putting microphone in that way.

phantom 4! i love my P4! nice video

Nice! Man you is a funny feller, and entertaining...great flier too!

Very nice, Ken. I learned a lot and enjoy you showing other tools you use. Not sure I would feel comfortable using googles but that looks awesome. Thanks for another great video.

Excelente, por lo visto es muy fácil de manejar estoy viendo la posibilidad de adquirir un phantom 4, gracias por compartir. Saludos.

Always a pleasure to watch keep up the great work :)

Ken, Just watched this again for about the 4th time. Great video. This is a technique that I'm working to master. Not easy, but a definite necessity to make your videos look professional. I've never had my P3P in any of the IFMs. Don't really care to. Thanks for going out in the hot sun and making this video!

amazing channel man. Good job, I want to get googles now, it's so bright when I'm flying in the sunny heat Arizona.

ken great video ,I still have to master the perfect orbit your video has helped loads ,thanks from the country with gear shift ,LOL

This uncle Ken is a really fun guy~~

fantastic mate. great video love it. all the best
