A collection of videos I have taken, mostly of trains, tractors, or anything else mechanical. I also enjoy playing with slow-motion and time-lapse, although I'll admit I'm not that great at it. I fly an sUAS (drone), so not all of the videos are taken at ground level. I have collaborated with other YouTube creators, and we have combined our video footage for several projects. My newest interest is in spatial/3D video and have enjoyed learning how to create content using that format.

My good friend ‪@DroningVeteran‬ made this PSA video after the tragedy in Pecos, TX where two Union Pacific train crew members lost their lives because for the 45 minutes the truck was stuck on the tracks no one bothered to contact the railroad. https://youtu.be/n9fPMUSjfws?si=vgD6o...

I apologize for not having any new videos posted in the past few weeks. I had some family stuff come up that required my attention. There most likely won't be anything new this weekend but starting June 2nd I'll be posting new content regularly again.

‪@jailbaitandtackleoutdoors‬ is calling me out for drinking out of a Whataburger Yeti cup on ‪@jjsliftedhorizons‬ Live on Sunday night, 4/28/2024. Unfortunately, we do not have Whataburger in Wisconsin so I need to be creative in my response. Vote in the poll below or if you have another suggestion please comment.

I'm not going to be releasing a video this week because it is Easter Sunday. I will be back on April 7th.

When out chasing trains we have all wondered through brush and long grass that can be sketchy in regards to having Poison Ivy or Poison Oak in with it. My friend Gary did a great video on a product that helps reduce the itch and burn these plans cause.

Currently in committee is H.R. Bill 2864 or “Countering CCP Drones Act”. This bill if passed would direct the FCC to remove the certification of drones made by DJI effectively grounding an overwhelming majority of the consumer drones sold in the United States because they were built in China. I know this may come as a surprise to some people but almost every drone, especially in the consumer space, is made in China. To single out one company because they do a better job than their competitors is ludicrous. The members of Congress who are proposing this legislation are claiming they are doing this for national security which would be fine and good if there was a problem, but there isn’t. Both the defense department and independent analysts have performed audits on DJI drones and have determined that no data is being sent back to China. In fact, one of the ‘experts’ who testified before the House Subcommittee claimed that DJI can use its drones to track the heartbeat of Americans. Umm… first off, my Apple Watch already does that and secondly if they were capable of this wouldn’t it be a great marking point for hospitals? Have the drone fly around and take the vital readings of patients instead of using a nurse?

I’m just a hobbyist who has found a new tool to use in my creative endeavors. There are many small businesses that use DJI drones as one of their primary tools. This bill will destroy those businesses. I ask all of my fellow Americans to write to their congressman and tell them to vote no to this bill or better yet give them a phone call. If you need to know how to get a hold of your congressman use the following link. droneadvocacyalliance.com/take-action/

Trying some different things with the channel. I've changed the home screen to see if it generates more traffic. I'm working on a channel trailer video. Thank you to all for tuning in.

No video this week. I just needed to step away and work on some other things during my free time. We'll be back next week with something new.

My subscriber fundraiser for Wreaths Across America is over. I have gained 96 new subscribers since July, 1st. Which means I am supposed to donate $96, but I am not. I am rounding that up to $102 so it will cover 6 full wreaths. I want to thank ‪@jjsliftedhorizons‬ for helping me promote this as well as his matching donation to Mission 22. Both are very worthy causes. Thank you everyone.
