Canberra - Australia's Capital City - Winter 2022

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Former Drone Video of the Week Finalist Gizmo Drones brings us this excellent drone video of Canberra, the capital city of Australia.  Canberra is a planned city which was built to serve as the national capital following the establishment of Australia as an independent country in the early 20th century.  Canberra is the main city of the Australian Federal District, a landlocked territory which was carved out of the territory of the state of New South Wales and which is directly administered by the national government.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

This video is about Canberra, Australia's awesome "bush" city where the city and suburbs are separated by forest, farmland and nature reserves. Canberra is our federal government capital with national monuments, museums and galleries built around a large artificial lake.

This video includes Parliament House (new and old), National Library, Captain James Cook Memorial Jet on Lake Burley Griffin, National Museum, National Carillon, Kingston Foreshore, Attunga Point and Belconnen on Lake Ginninderra, Telstra Tower plus Australian National University and city buildings. Northbourne Ave is in the flight path so I could only capture this from the huge City Hill roundabout.

All video was taken with an Autel Nano+ 249g micro drone in 4K H265 30fps in normal colour and I used ND filters in most of the shots. I captured these shots over the last few days as I was visiting Canberra for work.

I hope you like this video of Canberra in winter and thanks for watching, Brett - Gizmo Drones

DRONE SAFETY NOTE ABOUT CANBERRA

Much of Canberra is in restricted air space as it is within 5.5km or 3 nautical miles of Canberra airport however under section 4.03 of Part 101 (Unmanned Aircraft and Rockets) Manual of Standards 2019 (as amended) a person may fly a micro RPA less than 250g drone no higher than 45m or 150 feet above ground and it must not enter an approach and departure path as noted in the CASA diagram.

I used a sub 249g drone to make this video and I made sure that I flew no higher than 45m in allowed, restricted areas and I did not fly in the approach and departure paths of Canberra airport. Outside of the restricted areas I also followed the rules which includes no higher than 120m above the ground below it.

If you are in Australia then see the CASA drone safety rules and use OpenSky or equivalent app for allowed flight times and places you can fly.
