I quite enjoyed it. Thought the Aston could have been driven a bit more enthusiastically though. biggrin

Would a drone be able to keep up at 50-70mph?

Has it been taken down or is it me not knowing what I'm doing?

I tried the link, and it is probably not you, because the link no longer worked for me.

However, after a search for the title, I found this, which does work (a few minutes ago anyway).

My review of the film would be;

Wonderful scenery.

As mentioned, the car does indeed look slow. I suppose with the drone speed aspect, perhaps filming ahead of the car, then panning round as it passes might be a technique worth trying.

I also found the music too dominant. A Bond track I think, but not one of my favourites. The right background music would be OK, but it must not drown out the exhaust 'music'.

I wonder if the film maker will ever see our comments?

Fantastic scenery, the Aston never begins to show its true ability (I agree with others, it is going so slowly - the drone is not the problem here though) and the choice of a Bond theme does not really suit the V8V.

I did enjoy it though. I just wanted the AM to open up a bit (lot).

Great footage though beer

Thanks Simon and Jon, managed to get it to work and viewed it on an Ultra high def tv. The video is shot in a great location but I haven't checked where it was filmed. I quite like the Spectre theme but I enjoy the exhaust sound much more ( I think its the same sports exhaust I have). Thanks again.

That was my first thought, the music way overpowered any sounds made by the car.
