I've watched both of the Thai TBS videos a few times now. I think I have been to at least a few places they flew. Next time I go back to the islands in the South I plan to FPV. Will need LRS for that, no going after a quad in a Cobra infested jungle! The snakes can have the KK2 board...
It is near Koh Samui in the Gulf, have not been there yet, but it is supposed to be super nice. https://maps.google.com/?ll=9.548615,99.96254&spn=0.566757,0.891953&t=m&z=11 I have been to Koh PhiPhi island which was pretty cool, 1.5 hours by boat out to a remote tiny Island. Most remote place I have ever been in my life, no roads at all on the island, only one motorized vehicle was there, a motorcycle with a sidecar as an ambulance. All power was from Diesel generator that ran 24-7 and fuel by a line than ran out to a ship in the water. Sattelite Internet though ;D Sadly in the Tsunami many people died there... Koh PhiPhi: https://maps.google.com/?ll=7.737358,98.77327&spn=0.035593,0.055747&t=h&z=15 Tsunami video, the fountain you see in the pool at the beginning, I have vacation photo's of myself sitting on that fountain and swimming in that pool just a few months prior to this happening, the hotel I was in was washed into the sea...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agCG-rPqM6A
I know it made it at least to the second floor, 20', but the hotel is still there. That was the only large, solid structure on the island. And most all of the videos are from inside of it. Most anywhere else there were no survivors.
Oh, I guess that made no sense, that hotel was the traditional hotel style hotel with a pool out front. But it also offered the small cabins down by the beach where you slept. But then ate breakfast back at the main place. It was our cabin that washed away and the pool that filled up.
No, that's just a standard Phi Phi Island Google search result, there are thousands of images of that place. Everyone always posts pictures of it. A couple of James Bond movies were filmed there, and "The Beach" with Leonardo Dicaprio was filmed there. The area is famous among rock climbers. They usally end up there after climbing Mt Everest so they can be in the warm, and scale rock cliffs in shorts.
Video 3 is out, all Bangkok this time. These guys are good, don't know how they surf those buildings with such precision. They started to get high enough a few times to show the place, but still does not do it justice as far as the true size of it.... And yeah, there are a LOT of swimming pools there! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L55M7_gu87I&hd=1
