Creative change for my weekly drone show!

(Click on banner to subscribe to my YouTube Channel)

So I am learning to livestream for my stroke community by my partner Roland Takaoka from DIY Live Streaming.

We were discussing my drone show. Roland mentioned that my show was lacking progression. I keep showing/filming the same backyard table shot almost every week on stick control. He said my topic is great but I need to show the audience how my stick control is improving using different filming areas.

So in effort to make my Drone Show more interesting, starting this Saturday at 2 PM PST, I am going to be thinking of creative ways, to not only challenge myself using stick control and hopefully show my audience different ways to demonstrate that my stick control is progressively improving.

You need to remember I'm wheelchair bound and don't drive. So I'm limited to a residential frontyard and backyard.

My idea is to create natural obstacle courses that will challenge my stick control and over time show you an improvement in my stick control. New every week.

Please remember I'm limited to a residential lot so you may see some of the same surroundings but if I can pull this off, I'll film different challenges every week.

This Saturday I will attempt to fly my obstacle laden side yard!
This should prove to be a hair raising action packed show! lol

My plan is to ask my lovely wife Rebecca to take me to a park to learn the awesome DJI Spark Intelligent Flight Modes.

My Shows will be 30 minutes long and broken up into two 15 minute segments.
First 15 minute segment will be me narating my stick challenge flight and a 15 minute open discussion Q&A
"All live"

 I hope to produce a show you'll enjoy watching!


Oh, P.s. 
My sponsor Tom Iliffe purchased some ND filters for Spark I'll be showcasing on a future episode!

 Subscribe to my YouTube Channel to be part of this fun filled, action packed show! Just kidding but I'll do my best!

Sincerely,
Aaron Avila

I want to make clear to our drone community that my goal for my I Can't Walk But I Can Fly Drone Show is to learn how to produce a high quality and high valued drone show.   I dream of producing a drone show we engage together on as a community. A recent show change is  My Show Sponsor Tom Iliffe felt it best at this time to pull his sponsorship of my show. If anyone believes in my using drones to raise stroke awareness and is willing to sponsor my show, please leave me a message in comments. My future show objective: To work really hard on learning drone cinematography.  I want to share what I learn with you and hopefully produce valuable content. I want to learn how to produce drone cinematic sequences. Because I have allowed myself to get buried with Stroke TV projects and don't have enough time to go cinematic film Lord Snort, the Bore Metal Sculpture, I must postpone next months show to the following month (12/1/18 @ 2 PM PST) I will m...

How a DJI Drone helped my stroke survival.

Hi, My name is Aaron Avila  I suffered a massive brain aneurysm on September 17th 2010. Then two weeks later while in a comma I suffered a massive stroke. My stroke left me totally mute, half paralyzed and unable to walk. (It's been 8 years). I now speak with a speech deficit. I'm not going to go in depth initially but flying a DJI Spark drone gave me a w ay to express myself creatively for the first time since  my stroke in 2010. I discovered drones through a friend from almost 30 years ago named Tom Iliffe. Tom and I lost contact for over 20 years.  Thanks to Facebook Tom and I reconnected. When Tom found out I had suffered a brain aneurysm and stroke that left me half paralyzed and wheelchair bound Tom  was moved with comparison. Tom told me that I may not be able to walk, but I can fly a drone one handed. What a life changing time this was for me! You see, one of the most difficult effects of stroke is it completely strips you of your abilit...

Here's my plan to learn to fly and film cinematic Drone.

Meet my amazing teacher from Ireland  (Click on Pegasus my Phantom 3 4k to launch video) I plan on taking one or two tips of Stewart Carroll's and practice them in my front yard and local park until I  learn them. As I get this plan moving I will do a once a week livestream show on my Facebook Page. My goal will be to spend 15 minutes or so in a live chat segment at the end of each show.  We can live chat to discuss cinematic Drone flying or any Drone topic. Like my Facebook Page Here I must warn you! I'm a brain aneurysm and stroke survivor with a speech deficit (Read my story here) so you may need to ask me to slow my speech rate down so I don't smash my words together.  I don't take it personal so if you can't understand me, ask me to slow down. As I  get more organized I will use the same numbering system Stewart uses in his tutorial so you know what cinematic Drone filming technique I'm trying to learn. Make sure...
