Another milestone: The first airborne mission. This was a test flight and the balloon remained tied to ground tether lines. Video showing the event, complete with drone coverage!!
A big milestone: The first mission in the field. Sadly, this test was not intended to get airborne, but it was exciting to see the entire technology stack working correctly for the first time.
Explains the selection of the Garmin VIRB 360 as the primary camera. I stick it on a drone and take it up a few hundred feet for a look around and show you the resulting 360 video. Fun to view with an Oculus Rift or other VR headset!
