What do you think of this? Is this the level of acrobatic proficiency you're striving for?

The video content might have been 'terrible' but that was a demonstration of incredible control.
Had to be a VERY expensive drone. I'm sure the average drone wouldn't be up to that.
But, Roger would know a lot more about it than I do.

Watching that almost made my stomach flip. I'll definitely settle for Roger's sedate overflights, although I will admit that whoever shot that video is crazy-good at it.

I wonder how many drones bit the dust to get that proficient?
