Derby Canal series - Swarkestone to Infinity park footbridge by drone | DJI Mini2 | 4K

Have you ever wondered where the Derby Canal used to run? Well in this video and future ones I will by flying my drone along the old route of the Derby Canal from Swarkestone to Sandiacre in sections. In this episode the journey starts at Swarkestone and ends above Infinity park footbridge which is where the Cuttle brook Aqueduct used to be.

This video is part of a collection of Derby Canal flights covering the entire original route of the canal in small parts. One set starting at Sandiacre and flying West to Derby and the other series
starting at Swarkestone and flying north to Derby. If you would like to see the section before this video or the one after this then use these links here to go directly to them :

Next video in this Derby canal series : TBA

This video is made out of many small flights which I have joined together, in order to maintain VLOS. I apologise for the poor joins and jumps in the footage due to this.

Best watched on a large television screen so you can see all the details, you will miss all the details on a phone.

Best viewed on a large computer screen or smart TV as this is recorded in 4K resolution with great music so a real waste watching it on a small phone screen. Did you know you can cast it to your smart tv from the YouTube app?

Information on my drone flying :
● My drone is a Class C0 drone sub-250g type, because its such a lightweight drone (236g), I'm allowed to fly it over residential and commercial property and people (but not crowds) without permission.
● I passed the theory test and have both valid flyer ID and Operator ID's.
● I have drone insurance (£5 million public liability insurance cover).
● I strictly follow all the CAA guidelines on flying my drone.
● I always fly in Cinematic mode (slow speed) as this is safer in urban environments.
● I plan all of my flights in advance of taking off to ensure I know my complete flight path and am aware of any obstacles in the way.
● In order to maintain VLOS (visual line of sight) with my drone I use extremely bright Strobe lights, if there are trees or buildings in my way then I have to land and carry on from a different location this means that I often have to join bits of flights together, I try and line up edits using telemetry to match altitude and position etc. but its not always possible to get good joins in clips so this can mean jump cuts and fades between clips.
● I carry out a risk assessment before each flight and ensure all batteries fully charged, GPS has a good fix etc.
● I always engage with anyone nearby informing them the reason for my flight.

Thanks
Andy
