Music: KRANE x Alexander Lewis – Fall Apart
Building: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakhta_Center (462 meters)
To be fair, Lakhta is relatively boring place to dive – no other buildings around, tower looks pretty much the same all the 460+ meters way down, dive takes too much time (around 15 seconds), only two climbs were safe to do with 1300mAh lipo. The coolest parts were the tower cranes dives and acrobatics around supporting constructs. Sadly, those cranes are disassembled already. One more interesting thing I noticed there – the tower is high enough to notice quad getting out of tune because of too low PIDs coefficients (maybe somebody will implement altitude sensor based PID attenuation some day?).
On safety: whole complex was under construction, it was relatively safe to fly there – normal safety rules were applied for skyscraper construction workers (helmets and so on), little 500g+ drone can’t cause serious damage there. Even diving speeds were not as fast as I expect them to be – quad reaches terminal velocity in about 3-5 seconds and pretty much stops accelerating. I also used reliable TBS Crossfire connection (LQ 99% at ~700 meters) and 500mW 5.8Ghz vtx was enough for crystal clear video.

This is the sickest thing I’ve ever seen…
Не реально круто!!! Там сильно загажен эфир?
Отличная работа!
This is AWESOME! So tall you need fins or something to guide yourself down. Ever touch the building by accident? Maybe the best building dive I’ve seen yet. Just so extreme and from a good distance.
Bravo
чувак, это круто ) Как же запреты и почему мы не знакомы? )) Или ты не из СПб?
this sets the curve on dive videos pretty high bro.. holy cow!!!!

Subbed! That was sick man!
Holy sh*t bru! That was the sickest diving I’ve seen so far! ???

Класс!!! Rotor riot тихо курит в сторонке! На каком акуме летал?
Я тоже в парке 300летия летал, но храбрости подлететь к башне не хватило. Часто летаешь на севере города?
Понятно! Будешь еще в питере – пиши 🙂
респект тебе за увиденное
Awesome spot, well played 8-] thats why we do fpv bruv.
Как это блять снято???
this is EPIC!
Крутой видосик!
Спасибо, чувак, выпендрился. Ладно нарушение нынешнего идиотского регламента, но в добавок подгадано аккурат под месячный запрет полетов в 100 км зоне и предканикулярное заседание Думы, где должны рассматривать дополнительные меры по запрету полетов и ужесточению контроля за дронами по украинской модели. Видео прямо подарок запрещальщикам и параноикам 🙁
OMG! This is cool!
Standard RX or crossfire setup? =)
200MW!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! what sorcery is this
EPIC !!!!!!!!!!! and awesome……….. love it!!!!!!!!
How do you stand while flying with balls that big??? This was insane lol

Крутейший видос, бро!!
Господи не удели я до этого дожил? Это моя Россия! Ребята, я пережил девяностые и я кайфую от того как моя страна меняется, спасибо за душу, за видео. Привет из Москвы!
Goosebumps as soon as you started the dive! Damn!
This is insane!
It seems so random. Like nothing around then BOOM

Rarely do I say “OMG!!” out loud – But.. That was incredible!
Being in Russia I’m surprised you didn’t find some dude hanging from his fingertips from a beam at the top doing pull ups…
Stunning. Thanks for sharing
