Top 5 Drone YouTube Channels
YouTube is king of the Millennial generation and leaks into both Gen-X and Gen-Z as the top video hosting platform. It is also a leader in both the entertainment and social media categories allowing for users to create their own profiles as well as enjoy a range of video content from user-generated to even full-fledged cable programming. Looking at such a juicy proposition, any drone pilot would be salivating at the opportunity to become a face of the community on YouTube.
Part 107 License: What’s all the Fuss?

Looking to Buy a Drone? Read This First.

FAA Part 107: Let’s Talk Turkey
A license for a car is far less expensive and one could argue that driving a car on a daily basis is far more dangerous than flying a drone responsibly below 400 feet. So, it might be high-time that we examine the costs of the Part 107 and find a way to make it much less expensive, especially for the little guys who fund their own business or hobby.

My First Drone Decal – A Half-Baked Review
When I purchased my Mavic 2 Zoom, I thought it was sleek and sexy. The gunmetal grey body paired with silver accents just gave it that cool, secret agent vibe that I wanted in my drone, especially after graduating up from a bulky, white Phantom 3 aircraft. Not only did it pack a punch with a bunch of new features, but it was cool to look at too.
The FAA Remote ID Protest (Video)
It was only fitting that our community of mavericks and renegades band together to fight against oppression. I just wish the stakes weren’t so high for so many when it comes to their rights and privileges to take to the skies and do what they love.

As I continue to ponder and write down ideas for locations to visit, I decided it might not be a terrible idea to publish my list to this blog in order to keep my followers up-to-date with some of the content they can expect as well as hold myself accountable for the plans being set in stone.
The Secret Passage Under Route 30 (Video)
Between the east-end of the Park City Mall and the west-side of Long’s Park is a tunnel (it’s really just a walking path that passes under Route 30, but calling it a tunnel is more fun) that is accessible to all foot traffic between the two locations.
An Escape from the Cold: Florida 2020 (video)
The past six months have been loaded with new opportunities to explore the world around me and learn more about it. This was my first time in Florida, so I didn’t really know what to expect when it came to the environment other than what I had heard from people who had visited or from what I saw on television.
A French Pilgrimage in 2019 (video)
I just returned from a trip to France, a country that has come into my personal focus due to the results of a recent 23&Me test, and the experience has changed so much of how I view the world around me.
