Travis Wetland
I took my quadcopter to Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park to get some footage of the wildlife and scenery. It was my first time flying with an FPV system hooked up to the GoPro so I had a live view on my controller of what was being recorded. Using this I was finally able to control and frame shots more dynamically so I really tried to get smooth pans and tilts to match the mood. Once again there is absolutely no post-stabilisation in this video whatsoever.

Christchurch: Ecocity
The Waitākiri Ecosanctuary is a core project in the development of Christchurch as a future-defining Ecocity. Along with the Avon-Ōtākaro Forest & Wetland Park, it will green our red zone and our city. Did you know we are the only major city in New Zealand not to have a safe place for our endangered native biodiversity to thrive?
...to experience these icons is our birthright, one that Canterbury is missing out on. - Colin Meurk, Landcare Ecologist and co-founder of Travis Wetland, and the ecosanctuary project.
