How To Film Yourself With a Drone While Biking *Hint-All Manual

This is a tutorial for filming bike adventures with a drone. It's a random skill, but makes videos WAY cooler. I got my first drone in 2016, the Mavic Pro, and since then I've been incorporating drone footage into all of my adventure videos, especially my bike packing tours.

Whenever I watch your videos, I get a Master Class in drone filming. Previously, I had to isolate my eyes on the bike to try to figure how you did it, disregarding the stunning video! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Stay safe and just keep on being Ryan!

Dude - great info here...spot on! Totally concur and relate to everything you said. And I learned a new word: "Dronebiking". LOL Mountain biking (and more specifically bikepacking) is what got me into drones in the first place. Like you, I've received a ton of comments (mostly questions) on how I operate the drone and ride at the same time.

@@duzer Of course! I get inspired so much from your channel. I do drone-biking a bit differently, as I like to have the drone attached to the handlebar and, instead of using the top of the sticks to control it while riding, I press on the ball at the base of the stick. That way my thumb slowly controls the base of the stick while also keeping contact with the rim of the controller, making it less prone to shakes etc. Not sure I was able to sufficiently describe that. Love your videos!

Greetings Ryan: I have been enjoying your videos and watched them all the way through. Because of your inspiration, I purchased a Priority e-bike today (and extra battery) with the hope that it will get me out there and do some serious touring. I have toured many times, but because of my age and the aches that come with that, I only bicycle about 100 miles a week. Having said this, I want to pass on my appreciation for your life and fitness. I started a low sodium diet about 6 months ago and have lost some weight and feel so much better. Although I am not a vegetarian yet, I am getting there. I love refried beans too and vegetables. However, I am thankful that there is only one Ryan, for the world probably could not absorb all the excitement that you display if there were two of you. Take care!
