Shooting the summer fields is a bit difficult
The other day I posted a few shots I managed to get of the varying wildlife that was around not far from where I live. That day, in just one field, I managed to photograph deer, a fox, a pheasant, and a judgemental horse. It was a really fun little walk considering I just hadn't been getting out much recently. But, with this much-needed walk and drone flight, I was met with a new challenge: interference. I haven't had many problems with the drone and the connection since I have owned it over the years; I've done a lot of flying in dense locations and during the summer months, but it was only the other day that I had my first actual disconnect. The drone lost all connection and struggled to get it back. This happened numerous times in an area I have flown the drone around so many times prior. I'm very comfortable flying it around there.
Though it came to me that perhaps the reason for this connection issue I kept getting was likely a mixture of all the new growth in the area. The trees are looking beautiful as you can see in the first image! But also a result of the huge bales that occupy multiple large fields nearby. I wanted to fly through them and far over them to other fields, but I'm guessing each of them just disrupted the signal strength. Instead, I just accepted what I had. I flew the drone where I could and tried to incorporate them into some images somehow anyway, watching the ways the sunset would highlight the bale.
It certainly wasn't as fun as usual, being a bit more limited to where I can fly and how. I'm hoping other locations aren't going to have the same issue. Still, it's always fun to get out and see the world from that other perspective. I can't really complain much there with all that beauty to be seen.

Dude, that's too bad, I can understand the forest, maybe they are affecting the signal, but I don't know why the hay bales are affecting the signal. The photos still look great though.
I think it's just the fact that there's so many other objects for that signal to pass through. I noticed if I gained a bit more height then it was a bit better. It wasn't too far away, but getting disconnected was a bit of a scare! Especially when I was flying fast and low through them to get a cool video. Part of me expected it to just keep going until it crashed. Fortunately it's insanely safe and it just stops when the connection dies.
I don't know if I've said this before but a friend of mine in the village got his drone stuck in a tree and they never got it out of there haha. So you are lucky it stops when connection dies 😂
I think I've only managed to crash this twice. Once I was being stupid and flying very low, it just fell into tall grass and was fine. Another time I was messing around inside, crashed into a door and chipped a propeller.
I tend to fly in very open areas to begin with, usually quite high and above trees. But sometimes those orbiting shots that are low and near other objects are just too fun to pass up. :^)
It may be difficult but it turned out still the best as these amazing pics were taken by you my dear friend. Iso love the trees too on the first image. Overall for me is very good.
Thank you! Fortunately the lighting was really good. I'm loving the sunsets and clear skies lately!
