I ordered 3 large prints about 10 years ago. They were worth it at the time but now with drones everywhere why not just get some drone shots? I photographed my prints so that I could make additional copies. This one is my favorite:

Yes, a drone for sure. I've heard of some people getting good shots from a bridge. Ten years ago helicopter shots were the thing to have so I paid big bucks for the prints. Their early editing was terrible but after talking to the owner I got the pics I wanted. I probably should have only ordered the one but here are my 3 after I framed them:

Can you post a pic of them? They did some horrible proofs of mine. Completely changed the color of my boat, removed the shadow underneath, etc. I really wanted the prints but had a hard time to get them done right.

Boatpix sucks in my opinion. We bought 2 pics from them and they did zero editing. As mentioned, buy a drone and get unlimited pics and videos for free that will come out better.
here is one from a poker run...think they could edit it to be lighter. Or whiten the bottom of our boat. It had been sitting in the water for a week prior to the run. Wouldn’t be so upset if they didn’t cost so much money. Only reason why I bought them was because this was my bachelor party.
hacks.

they also sell a DJI inspire with a max speed of 60-65 mph. With the wind probably get 70-75.
how much faster do you need a drone to go?
you call the junk I got a quality picture? lol. Can take better with an old Kodak camera.

the DJI phantom 4 has an advertised max speed of 40-45mph. If you fly with the wind probably can get it up to 50-55mph.
