Drones at the Balloon Fiesta

[Vaughn McMillan]

Something new at this year's Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta is a pre-dawn drone show. I wasn't there to see it, but saw a short video of it on Facebook. This is the only version I found on YouTube...I'm sure better ones will eventually be uploaded. The red lights on the radio towers in the background are a bit of a distraction, but you can still see the drone show pretty well. It's apparent that the guy shooting the video and the girl talking to him are not real savvy about balloons or drones, but it's a pretty cool video nonetheless. I'm more and more amazed at how the level of drone programming has progressed.
