Flying The Snake River

Ok, it's been quite some time since I've last posted, but this is my latest flying video edit. This was shot mainly using 3 cameras. A tail mounted GoPro Hero 8, a Wing mounted Hero 10 and a wing mounted Hero 11.

Both the Hero 10 (3/4 forward view) and Hero 11 (forward view) were equipped with ND filters on the day and shooting in 24FPS for a more natural looking motion blur. The tail camera was a Hero 8 shooting in 2.7K at 30FPS. I'll be trimming this video down to under 5 minutes in the future, but for now, here's the full length video for those who may enjoy it. I also disabled stabilization when shooting this to increase battery life, but added it back in using Reelsteady. However I disabled horizon levelling for a few different reasons, mainly it looks unnatural when you're doing a banking turn but the horizon stays level. Also it results in some very jerky panning movements when completing a banking turn.

Anyway, having said all of that, hope you like the video and thanks to Merrymunks for her awesome piloting skills.
