Absolutely loved this one. Beautiful canal. 🫡
Great ride out Gaz. Thank you for taking me along. Lovely canal path with beautiful views. Wonderful flight too. 👍🏻❤
AWESOME video Gaz. I am really impressed with the footage recorded on the Insta 360, it is soooo smooth. Years ago if I put my GoPro on the bike it would shake and wobble all over the place so I bought a chest harness and put it on there and it was okay. PS, I'm heading to Leeds on Tuesday with my drone. 🙂
Nice
