As we all know in the drone community, getting your pictures noticed is hard work. Even when you have an excellent shot, drawing attention to it is not easy. Well look no further I have a (partial) solution!      DronePod is an Instagram drone based community. Here you can post your IG pics and videos and the other members will like and give you suitable feedback in the form of comments. They currently have two chats. One for IG pics (strictly drone related) and the other chat is for general drone chat. The platform they are using is Telegram. Telegram is available for both mobile and PC use.  It is also available from the PlayStore.   The community is very active at liking/commenting and for general drone chat. I have found them to be very helpful in relation to cross promoting and also very friendly. If you are a drone enthusiast and an Instagram use look no further than DronePod. Below are the  links to all chats and be sure to read the rules before posting! We are looking f

Police bring down drone outside prison

Image
P rison CCTV cameras captured the dramatic moment a plain clothes detective brings down a drone trying to smuggle drugs into Pentoville Prison. The detective was in an undercover car parked outside the Victorian jail's walls when he spotted the drone hover overhead with a piece of string dangling down. The officer then yanked it bringing the drone crashing to the floor. The officers had been investigating another drone crash at the north London prison when the drone controlled by Charlie Adifiyi, 21, came into view. The officers were part of 'Operation Airborne' - intended to combat the use of  drones at Pentonville.

Want music tracks for aerial footage?

Image
We all know how important it is to source good music for your aerial footage. Some people would say that it is even more important than the footage itself. A common complaint I hear from people who post their aerial footage online is that their videos are taken down because they are using music that has copyright protection. So I will compile list of sources where you can choose from creative commons tracks and use them freely with your footage.  Always make sure that you credit the musicians in your video as it takes time and effort on their behalf to make the tracks. You will find that they are often very happy to hear their creation being melded with another type of media. 1) Firstly we have the free music archive . This is a comprehensive library of CC tracks. They are organized by genre and the site has new submissions regularly.   http://freemusicarchive.org/curator/Creative_Commons/ 2) Next us is Jewelbeat. Although this is not as well organized, you will still find use
