Drone captures our escape from a flash flood while hiking in Maui, Hawaii
None of the shots once the river started flooding were intentionally captured or composed. I only operated the drone to keep it high and nearby as I fled to higher ground. I lost sight of the drone several times because my focus was not piloting the drone, it was simply not crashing it while we climbed to safety. At the end the drone was flown to alert the helicopter of our location, because we received word from our friend back at the road that the helicopter was unable to find us.
