I'm just back from Zim, and have posted my report. I'm also posting this link here, because not everyone will want to read my long-winded report, and i thought you would find this fun. Justin Drainer videoed our trip, and he sent me this short compilation. Aerial photography makes for remarkable safari footage! https://drive.google.com/file/...YWtNcU5XQWU3Vk0/view | ||

I'm surprised the croc or a hippo didn't take a swipe at the drone, since it seemed to fly within a couple of feet of them. Stunning images! Jesus saves, but Moses invests | |||

That was just outstanding thanks for posting it! "The difference between adventure and disaster is preparation." "The problem with quoting info from the internet is that you can never be sure it is accurate" Abraham Lincoln | |||

Outstanding. I carried the drone to him in late June and he started flying it then. He had been practicing on a virtual demo before we arrived, so he was well up the learning curve. I see he has taken it much further - chasing those buffalo was incredible! I can't believe how low Kariba is! That's unbelievable. And WTF - did Buzz forget to pack razors? Looks like it was a great safari. Congrats! JEB Katy, TX Already I was beginning to fall into the African way of thinking: That if you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on the animal's terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always recapture the day - Robert Ruark DSC Life Member NRA Life Member | |||

Great photos, but IMO they should not be used for hunting or harassing the game. | |||

That is fantastic! Especially with the soundtrack and editing. Saeed, this would be interesting for your Selous hunt. One can only imagine what might happen if a drone was mixed into your safari.  | |||

That was a great video...adds a new element to documenting your safari. Very well done!!! ****************************************************************** R.

Very well edited and scored. Good stuff! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Biebs... You sure ain't lying. I agree that video was amazing. My particular favorite was the hippos entering the water and seeing the 'mud trails'. Marty, do you happen to know how high Justin would fly it? Seems like he got it up there a few times. As an aside...Could you imagine Bell, Manners, Nychens, and other old ivory hunters having this technology? | |||

Really high. I couldn't give a number, but it would go nearly out of sight. It looked like science fiction come to life. The drone is a latest generation DJI. | |||

Marty, Thanks so much for sharing that. I bet you can't wait for the full final product. Justin filmed and edited the footage himself of our hunt with Buzz. I believe it was the first time he did the whole shebang and we couldn't be happier. He did not have the drone yet. That aerial footage is amazing.

Great footage, awesome Bushbuck! You and CMS are both a class act, although edited i still feel that short clip speaks volumes about the type of safari that was conducted. Well done | |||
