Its a prosumer drone

Technology has come a loooong way

Most drones would do that if you go on the mountain top, if they flew not from the base, but from a bit lower it would have been a bit more impressive like those guys doing FPV drone.

Yes but you have to climb that mountain first

Stunning

Thanks captain obvious

thanks Captain obvious

NASA recently flew a drone on Mars under much less air pressure than this. Drones are very capable!

​@@frankfowlkes7872 That wasn't a consumer drone, it was a drone designed for Mars' environment

no not impressive, its a light drone. anyone can make an fpv drone capable of 9000m flight for less than $100

and seeing all the bodies

Pretty sure they did their expedition from the north side tho

Hillary step doesnt exist anymore

@@livia_leve_solta Yeah thanks, I’m not a mtn climber and don’t follow it like those in the community would. This is why I would love to see something like a drone documentary showing the route and some of the common names that used like the ice fields and whatever landmarks that are still in use. Thanks for info.

Don't think the battery can last for the drone to reach the submit and come back down

Dude, nice to see know you watch DJI videos. I'm your one subscriber.

as a millionaire shitcoin pump and dumper

You saved the best for last in a UKposts video means you have to wait to the very end to see what you came for. This is the land of we want the best first.

Hi bro. Are you the one who took all that footage ?

@Krzysztof Przybyło Hi bro, it will be a pleasure!

Thanks and good to know. As officially, the Mavic 3 only climbs to 6000m ;)

@@falklumo I was at 6,100m at the time of takeoff

@@GilcimarLiberato Hi and thanks. But takeoff altitude does not matter all that much. You wrote to have operated the drone at 7250m flight altitude and I believe you. Not true? btw, an altitude of 1150m above takeoff is no problem assuming the firmware was properly "configured" - which is why I think your story is very plausible.

This is the most interesting thing. How did they get up there with nobody around??? It looks like a beautiful day!

Good point.

Same question. Did they actually close Mt. Everest only for themselves on such a perfect weather day?

maybe the climbers who flew the drone were sherpas. They prepare the trail before all the tourists can go. Also they are most likley one of the few who would be still fit enough up there to fly a drone after climbing the mountain.

I think our planet is living because of same humans. So i don't mind them queing up. Drone footage is awesome though

Seriously, usually this is only from helicopters etc. But to get such a personal feel for the mountain. LOVE the pull back shots showing just how tiny people are on any mountain let alone Everest. Also... what an absolutely desolately beautiful place.

There is a group of birds flyover the Mount Everest every year.

I had the same thoughts

Sherpas are a big help.

Its very light the drone gear to be honest

@@wololo10 everything weighs so much more at altitude. That’s why they don’t bring down trash or dead bodies.

@@ickess body = 80 kg, drone gear = 2 kg

Meanwhile my dji Tello, Takes a Inch out of terrace border, gone away with the wind. It doesn't know it's position if it doesn't has a close ground surface. Rip my Tello.😔

not an achievement. a $100 race drone can fly magnitudes better than any mavic

@@airs2k its the same tech and its worth $100 so its not an achievement nor is it a wonder that its not blown away. if you wanna call me a clown at least know what youre talking about

@@antiLGTBQ No need to "Call you" a clown, you're doing that all on your own. I've flown cheap drones and there nothing like a DJI.

@@keithg5044 Were talking about power, and since youve been reading my comments, you should know that and the fact ive stated that dji has you pay for the camera and software, alongside the cheap flight hardware.

Thank you Philip for having an "older" and more cinematic take on this.

not only this drone. Actually close to any quadcopter can

Yeah, I was thinking about needing special helicopters because the air is a lot thinner, no special adjustments eg, faster props to compensate for that?

Consider the climb rate of a toy quadcopter compared to that of a full-scale helicopter. It is a matter of power to size ratio. If you can climb at 10 m/s with a quadcopter, it can still achieve around 5 m/s or more in thinner air. You would probably notice a significant difference in battery life in hovering mode.

A helicopter needs more power because the rotor needs to spin faster to achieve the same amount of ascending force

what affects more a helicopter is the lack of oxigen due to thin air.. so HP go downhill.. an electric motor does not have such limitation.

neither is impressive. Americans have done more, china is a paper tiger.

if you didn’t know it was Everest would you say that? I’m impressed the drone can fly at this altitude, but there’s far more impressive drone shots than this.

I'm happy for you that you've seen more impressive drone shots.

Yeah this looks completeley boring.I would be so disappointed to stand on the highest mountain on earth and then see this: a few rocks and snow 🤣🤣

@@Tuber1der Agreed, it's beautiful, but I've seen better shots. The impressive part is that it flies at this altitude. My EVO II Pro has climbed some mountains, but not Everest heights. I have taken better, but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...

Wonderful

I wonder if they lost a couple drones. The air thin and wind currents unpredictable. Still its awe inspiring footage. We have so much magnificent beauty to enjoy. Its a wonder we get depressed.

its easy with tech progression in the last decade. a $100 race drone flies better youre really just paying for software and the camera in mavics

@@antiLGTBQ holy spammer, batman. Chill out. We get it. You think it sucks and "with $100 anyone can do it better". Frikken broken record over here.

@@MattH-wg7ou I dont think, I know. nothing would get done if things were said only once now would they?

Yes! This!

Climbing everest is hard enough, asking them to film up there and do a bts is a bit much, no? It would be very nice if they did, but we shouldn't sound entitled to it, right?

@@Leon_George there's no sense of entitlement that I can detect. A sense of wonder, perhaps, and desire to understand how these people accomplished such an incredible feat.

@@ElSc0rch10 I know, I know, I said it quite a passive aggressive way (sorry), I just meant that always asking more of people that have already done the impossible, whilst we're probably comfortably sitting somewhere makes me uneasy.

@@Leon_George I get it, mate, don't worry. There is definitely a lot of that going around these days. But in this case, I think we're all just so buzzed about this extraordinary footage that we'd love to see more. As you say, getting to the top of Everest is amazing on its own, but to capture such stunning footage as well is next level. 🤩

You can put it on half speed in settings

Also without the music would have been better.

@@well_i_liked_it mute can be your best friend.

More impressive is the fact that the drone was allowed to fly over there because the possible restrictions...

Impressive, but less cuts and longer takes would be more effective.

that would be me

It's not hard to remember if it's that important to you

@@elongatedshrew5902 ur fun

footage?

😅 Same! Mind if I join you?🍻✌🏼😎

To be fair a rescue chopper can not risk it...if a drone crashes it's not that big of a deal.

There are choppers which can fly to the top, it depends on the weight and the rotor they use. Rotor speed is limited by the sound barrier, the tips should not exceed speed of sound.

thats ignorance, even on youtube you can see choppers landing on everest summit

@@trader2137 Choppers? I think you mean chopper. Singular. A helicopter has only touched down on the summit of Everest once in history and is unlikely to be allowed to do so again. I'm surprised Eurocopter (the helicopter manufacturer) allowed their pilot to do so given any kind of accident on the mountain would have been a disaster. A helicopter crash on the summit of Everest, or anywhere near the summit for that matter, would have quite literally vandalized one of the most iconic places in the world. It took an expert pilot in a state-of-the-art helicopter to do so safely. The original commenter is correct. Rescue helicopters have never been used for a rescue higher than Camp 2 on Everest. And even that is pushing the limits of what could be done safely with rescue helicopters. The fact that DJI was able to get this footage using a DJI Mavic 3 is extremely impressive given the conditions that exist at that altitude. It wouldn't surprise me if they used custom firmware to have the drone better handle the conditions (not just the thin air but the wind). Either way, it's impressive.

@@CarlHancock heli flew over 7500m on annapurna and dropped ppl at 7000m

dont be fooled into thinking you need an expensive mavic for power, a $100 race drone far outperforms any mavic in power

@@antiLGTBQ Dont' be fooled into thinking anyone will believe you.

Dangerous too

That is not stock drone. It's rpm was customized.

And they didn’t even make it click-baity

If it's crap I don't watch it, but I don't want to censor what others choose to watch. You description of the video is spot on. 👍

@@OKuusava Well just move on. It's not compulsory.

Battery-Powered/Electronic quadrotors can. A helicopter cannot. Helicopters have an absolute limit of 22,000ft/6700 meters.

Airbus test pilot landed on top of Everest, or at least put a skid down. Check it out ;)

@@RNG-999 nah man, helicopters can fly above Everest, it's risky and only 1 person can be on board, but it has been done multiple times

What’s “film?”

footage?

@@K1OIK In filmmaking and video production, footage is raw, unedited material as originally filmed by a movie camera or recorded by a (often special) video camera, which typically must be edited to create a motion picture, video clip, television show or similar completed work.

@@tanyamariebarlow9284 I know what footage is, are you telling me there is film aboard that tiny drone?

@@K1OIK no film aboard the tiny drone. But, the drone footage that has been put together to make this masterpiece of a video is amazing, especially as it was filmed only on a drone.

Risking it all for those perfect shots lol
