QM2 in Liverpool from a drone

It’s amazing to think that 16 years ago it took a helicopter with a gimbal cam mounted on the front, along with a videographer and photographer to get the sort of footage I can now get from a device that weighs 250 grams and fits on the palm of my hand. Helicopter’s can go higher and allow for a photographer to bring a bag of gear with them, but this tiny drone is still very impressive.
