Horsing around with the DJI Phantom

Horsing around with the DJI Phantom – now that is fun!

I’m not your average Drone Diva. I had to put in my personal touch on my flying and what I’ve accomplished.  Hope you check it out and enjoy my video as much as I did filming it!

I was looking or more things to do with the Phantom when I stumbled across “thedjiguy” and his video on the tricks the phantom can do.  It’s a great video and I am no where near this level.  But I gave him a laugh and said I would be in his next video.  So, he inspired me with new challenges, and of course I had to put a twist on it to make it personal.    😉  One of the challenges I has was getting my horse “Foxy”  comfortable with the Phantom.

I had plenty of practice with the Phantom landing on the barrel, but once I had the weight of the carrot the Phantom “Fanny” was not so reliable.  Finally I felt confident I had good control so I brought out my horse.  And as you would imagine, I lifted off and went flying backward right at my horse.  Good thing she has a big appetite for food.  I also had a few mishaps with her eating the carrots and hunting down the bag of stashed carrots.

Now that I’ve mastered this I hope to be able to do more flying with her.  It’s been fun coming up with ideas for more to do.  I would love to hear any ideas you have or share your videos of fun flying you’ve done.
