#DJIMini2 #Derbyshire #DroneDerby & Derbyshire Waste Treatment Centre (Sinfin incinerator EfW) by drone, Feb 2023 | 4Kcomedyhunter2023-02-05 | This is my 4K drone footage of Derby & Derbyshire Waste Treatment Centre aka The Sinfin incinerator aka New Waste Treatment Facility (NWTF).
The Sinfin waste plant was intended to divert 190,000 tonnes of rubbish per year away from expensive landfill by heat-treating it to produce a gas, which it would then burn to create enough electricity to power 14,000 homes. However, it became apparent that this was not possible and the plant was mothballed in 2019 before it could come into use.
The plant was never brought into use, having failed preliminary testing. It had been a source of complaints about flies and smells from residents around Sinfin Lane, who were relieved when the decision was taken to stop testing and close the plant.
Currently (Feb 2023) this plant is in the news again as there are plans to get it up and running.
I took these high resolution 360 degree photographs above the plant for Google Streetview : goo.gl/maps/btFpU9Q712mc3xY27

Part 6. Jan 22nd 2023 | 4Kcomedyhunter2023-01-27 | This is my latest flight showing the Becketwell development four months on from my last video ( youtu.be/Zap5P9JhTBc), on the site of the former Duckworth Square, Pink coconut nightclub and Pennine hotel.
Do you have any fond memories of Duckworth Square?
Duckworth Square shopping centre was demolished in 2003. Here are some of the shops and businesses there were Huckleberry Willow, Jon Bryan clothes shop, Records, Harlows, insurance brokers General Accident, Black Prince (named after the old cinema which used to stand on the site) and Rosco’s Bar, Sloppy Joe's, Burleys, Wimpy bar, Chelsea Girl, Tescos, Eden clothes shop
I used to be a regular at The Pink Coconut in the early 90s even went to Christmas Eve and New Years Eve parties there.
Part of the development will be a 3,500-capacity performance and conference venue "Becketwell Arena" 224 apartments in an 11-storey building, adjacent to a further five-storey building with more apartments and other mixed uses, together with offices, and full planning permission for a multi-use public square. 25,000 sq. m of new grade A offices and commercial space, a hotel and a multi-storey car park.
The former Debenhams store on Victoria street was demolished in Summer 2020. The United Reformed Church has moved to a purpose-designed home at Stuart House in Green Lane.
The development project will be the biggest in Derby city centre since the Westfield Centre went up in 2007.

Do you live in Peartree or used to live here, do you have any nice memories?
Maybe YOU have spotted a local landmark that Ive not listed, leave a comment about it with a timecode.
Pear Tree's most famous landmark was the Baseball Ground, home of Derby County football club, it was demolished in 2004. Pear Tree (or Peartree) is an inner city suburb of the city of Derby, in Derbyshire, England, located about 1.2 miles (1.9 km) south of the city centre. It is split between the Arboretum and Normanton electoral wards. Neighbouring areas include Litchurch, Normanton and Osmaston. The area became urbanised in the late 19th century and is characterised by terraced housing originally built for industrial workers
As well as this drone flight Ive captured the area from 400ft high in high resolution 360 degree photography :

Information on my drone flying : ● My drone is a Class C0 drone sub-250g type, because its such a lightweight drone (236g), I'm allowed to fly it over residential and commercial property and people (but not crowds) without permission. ● I passed the theory test and have both valid flyer ID and Operator ID's. ● I have drone insurance (£5 million public liability insurance cover). ● I strictly follow all the CAA guidelines on flying my drone. ● I always fly in Cinematic mode (slow speed) as this is safer in urban environments. ● I plan all of my flights in advance of taking off to ensure I know my complete flight path and am aware of any obstacles in the way. ● In order to maintain VLOS (visual line of sight) with my drone I use extremely bright Strobe lights, if there are trees or buildings in my way then I have to land and carry on from a different location this means that I often have to join bits of flights together, I try and line up edits using telemetry to match altitude and position etc. but its not always possible to get good joins in clips so this can mean jump cuts and fades between clips. ● I carry out a risk assessment before each flight and ensure all batteries fully charged, GPS has a good fix etc. ● I always engage with anyone nearby informing them the reason for my flight.

#DJIMini2 #Derbyshire #DroneLeeds Fog horizon, 6th November 2022 | 4Kcomedyhunter2022-11-06 | On the morning of Sunday 6th November 2022 the city of Leeds woke up to a fog so I rushed out with my trusty mini2 to capture this rare sight. The Dalek building poking through the fog. I used a DR-02 strobe mounted underneath and took the drone straight up without moving forward, all zooms in this video are done in post edit.

#DJIMini2 #Derbyshire #DroneBass Recreation Ground Derby by drone - Flood alleviation scheme. Sept 2022 | 4Kcomedyhunter2022-09-26 | There has been a lot going on at Bass's rec in the last few months, trees have been cleared to reveal the old Mill fleam so that a pumping station can be installed to prevent flooding.
In my drone flight I will show you a current view of Bass’ Recreation Ground, this park was given to the people of Derby by Michael Thomas Bass, MP of Derby 1847-1883 (grandson of the founder of the famous brewery from Burton on Trent).
This land carries a covenant which restricts its use to “be forever used and enjoyed by the inhabitants of the Borough of Derby for public play and recreation.”
The land is 4 ½ hectares and contains a skate park and in the past has often been used by circuses and events such as Derby Feste. This triangle of land is surrounded on the north side by the river Derwent, to the west by the inner ring road (A601) and on the south by Station Approach (A6). There are two footbridges which connect to this land, one takes you over the Mill fleam and one takes you over the river Derwent.
This is a little drone flight I did over the area so you can see what it looks like now (Sept 2022).
60 trees were felled as part of plans for the next stage of the city's Our City Our River (OCOR) flood defence project. They have been cleated ready for the erection of a pumping station to protect Derby from future flooding as part of a £95 million project.
The exposed former Mill race is used to take the culverted Markeaton Brook to the River Derwent. Some people have assumed this was the old Derby Canal but its not, The Derby canal ran parallel to this mill race. Markeaton brook goes into a culvert at Ford Street (behind Agard street) and passes under the city and emerges here to connect with the Derwent.

#DJIMini2 #DroneBecketwell development area (Pink Coconut now gone) Part 5. Sept 19th 2022comedyhunter2022-09-20 | This is my latest flight showing the Becketwell development two months on from my last video ( youtu.be/CvowLAeRH5c), on the site of the former Duckworth Square, Pink coconut nightclub and Pennine hotel.
At 01:09 onwards you can see where the seats used to be located on the former Superama Cinema (Odeon Pennine Derby), The Superama Cinema opened on 9th February 1967 and closed on 31st October 1975.
The Pink Coconut was demolished in Aug 2022
Do you have any fond memories of Duckworth Square?
Duckworth Square shopping centre was demolished in 2003. Here are some of the shops and businesses there were Huckleberry Willow, Jon Bryan clothes shop, Records, Harlows, insurance brokers General Accident, Black Prince (named after the old cinema which used to stand on the site) and Rosco’s Bar, Sloppy Joe's, Burleys, Wimpy bar, Chelsea Girl, Tescos, Eden clothes shop
I used to be a regular at The Pink Coconut in the early 90s even went to Christmas Eve and New Years Eve parties there.
Part of the development will be a 3,500-capacity performance and conference venue "Becketwell Arena" 224 apartments in an 11-storey building, adjacent to a further five-storey building with more apartments and other mixed uses, together with offices, and full planning permission for a multi-use public square. 25,000 sq. m of new grade A offices and commercial space, a hotel and a multi-storey car park.
The former Debenhams store on Victoria street was demolished in Summer 2020. The United Reformed Church has moved to a purpose-designed home at Stuart House in Green Lane.
The development project will be the biggest in Derby city centre since the Westfield Centre went up in 2007.

If you don’t own at VR headset don’t worry, you can still view it but the effect won’t be the same. On a desktop you can drag the view around with the mouse.
If you view the video on a Smartphone via the YouTube App then it will move the viewpoint around depending on the physical position of the phone, rotate the phone to landscape mode and it will fill the screen for better viewing.
You can also put the App into Google cardboard mode if you have a Google cardboard VR system to pop your smartphone into to simulate a VR headset.
The resolution of the spherical video is 5760 pixels horizontally by 2880 pixels vertically Best viewed in a VR Headset such as the Oculus Quest 2, or on a Fast PC or on your smartphone.
For best quality you will need a pretty fast computer. Click on the gear "settings" at the bottom right of the video, Click Quality and set to "2880s 5k"
You can pause the video at any point and then look all around in 360°, being a video you can also rewind and move to any point in the walk using the timeline at the bottom of the video.
Thanks AndyPeterborough beer festival 2022, bands and people. Stuff I saw at this amazing beer festival | 4Kcomedyhunter2022-08-31 | This is my collection of video footage from this years Peterborough beer festival when I attended on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Mostly of little clips of the bands I saw but also the fairground and some 4M high footage in the main tent. If you were there then maybe I caught you in my video, if so leave a comment.
Which band was your favourite? Did you like the new layout for the site? What days did you visit?
I had an awesome time, really enjoyed it a lot.
Thanks AndyPeterborough beer festival site flyover - August 2022 | 4Kcomedyhunter2022-08-31 | This years Peterborough beer festival had a different layout and I think it worked quite well. In my flight you will see how the new site layout looked on Friday 26th August 2022 at 10am and then the morning after the last day, Sunday 8am when the site was being taken down by all the amazing volunteers. Were you at this festival ? Did you like this new layout?

Best viewed on a large computer screen or smart TV as this is recorded in 4K resolution with great music so a real waste watching it on a small phone screen. Did you know you can cast it to your smart tv from the YouTube app?

Information on my drone flying : ● My drone is a Class C0 drone sub-250g type, because its such a lightweight drone (236g), I'm allowed to fly it over residential and commercial property and people (but not crowds) without permission. ● I passed the theory test and have both valid flyer ID and Operator ID's. ● I have drone insurance (£5 million public liability insurance cover). ● I strictly follow all the CAA guidelines on flying my drone. ● I always fly in Cinematic mode (slow speed) as this is safer in urban environments. ● I plan all of my flights in advance of taking off to ensure I know my complete flight path and am aware of any obstacles in the way. ● In order to maintain VLOS (visual line of sight) with my drone I use extremely bright Strobe lights, if there are trees or buildings in my way then I have to land and carry on from a different location this means that I often have to join bits of flights together, I try and line up edits using telemetry to match altitude and position etc. but its not always possible to get good joins in clips so this can mean jump cuts and fades between clips. ● I carry out a risk assessment before each flight and ensure all batteries fully charged, GPS has a good fix etc. ● I always engage with anyone nearby informing them the reason for my flight.
Thanks Andy
#DJIMini2 #DroneAmazing animated lights on Bridge Street, Peterborough.comedyhunter2022-08-29 | On a recent visit to Peterborough I noticed these amazing LED covered trees on Bridge Street animated in blue and yellow lights, the colours of the Ukrainian flag. these lights were installed in March 2022.Agard Street, Derby - A street going through change - Part 3 Drone footage. Aug 2022 | 4Kcomedyhunter2022-08-25 | In this latest update of my ongoing flights along Agard Street, Derby you can see the street is closed, this is due to the major water main busting at 5:30am on 17th August, here we are 8 days later and its still not been fixed. Agard street forms part of Derby's inner ring road so its a bit of a nightmare while its closed.
This is my drone footage of Agard street in Derby, I've been driving down this street pretty much every day for 35 years and seen lots of changes in that time. Currently there are a lot of changes happening as buildings are are being cleared to make way for new developments.
Sir Peter Hilton Court now completely demolished and will be replaced by a new business school run by the university, which it says will be home to the college of business law and social sciences. There are plans for 32 apartments, 166 apartments and 142 apartments.
