    Only use it if you know no one else is going to notice

    its prolly not cuz of stabilizayion, they added a tilt-shift effect to make some vids look small, like miniatures

    I noticed that as well, saw how photographers do that by blurring out all of the edges - been practicing that on still camera for fun.

    I like the scenery and I noticed he has two GoPro's so I suspect he's doing this in 3D ?
    EDIT:

    It still makes me want to get out and FLY!!!!!!!!

    His videos give me inspiration of where to go to fly also!

    But they're still awesome
    please only criticize the blurriness and color correction if you know how it would look without it

    Another famous place is Monument Valley but they don't have canyons and waterfalls.
    Here I flew my Slinger:
    We flew pretty close to that reservation. and we totally owned monument valley. keep an eye out for that video

    the tilt-shift deters from the fact that we had a bad prop on these flights. especially the edges were full of jellowish shots. tilt-shift at least adds some novelty to the shots. as for the heavy stabilization ... if you look close enough the staibilized parts of the video are sped up probably around 12x. Do that to your FPV footage and see what happens

    ^^lol Native Americans dude, what are you 80 years old?

    Loved the latest Death Valley video! Man those hills just look so awesome from above. Those low altitude barrel rolls over the sand were sweet too. Can't wait for Monument Valley.
