Why didn’t anyone think of this before? Because to develop the requisite skill it takes to actually fly a drone and capture footage of a wingsuit pilot is an absolute feat in itself. And you can’t just use drones purchased at Walmart. Special versions actually had to be developed in order to keep up with these BASE athletes. The resulting footage is some of the most fantastic imagery ever captured of the sport. “Quite some work to reach this goal,” said drone pilot Colas Feuillie Colas on Vimeo. “A lot of development on the machines, a lot of learning how to fly with the amazing Vincent Cotte, one of the best wingsuiters out there, a lot of hiking… And a good dose of stress and focus 🙂 !!”
