Haha, that's pretty cool. I have to say, video editing isn't my thing...I use iMovie on my MacBook if and when I have to do some although it's basic stuff...No explosions or car wrecks to be found... 😂

Hey, @galenkp.
I'm not even sure what I used to edit this one now. I've used iMovie a few times, but Quicktime allows for some simple editing, too, and I might have used that. There's a couple others I've used, too, including Apple's Final Cut Studio, but that's a little much for this.
Luckily, the visual and sound effects come straight from the app, so positioning things was the only tricky part when it came to that.
The app is kind of fun to monkey around with but it is a lot of the same thing over and over, so it gets kind of boring after a while. Plus, like most free apps, to get to stuff you want, you have to pay—seems like it was $1.99 or something like that per pack of FX.
I'd like to do some more editing but to be honest I don't tend to take a loot of footage. I have a GoPro and sometimes use that when I'm shooting but typically all I take is still pictures. I'd like a drone though, that would be cool.
I've nearly bought a GoPro a half dozen times over the years. I like the idea of being able to mount them to virtually anything. I haven't because, like you, I don't tend to do a whole lot of shooting of video, which means I would have to have specific projects in mind to use it for, and the ones I have in mind would probably require more than one. At present, I don't have the time, so there's justifying the expense.
I'm hoping to get out and do some more flying of the one I got for Christmas. It's just not going to be like the pro-style ones people have been posting here. The $1,000-plus kind. :) Mine's $39.99 when it's not on sale. :)
There are cheaper action cameras around but I guess one has to determine how much it would be used. I used to use it a lot for off-roading on my vehicles but sort of lost interest preferring to simply enjoy and live in the moment. I can't afford a drone at the moment and so I don't have one...Probably won't ever get one I guess...Again, comes down to need over want.
