Great footage OP, what drone were you filming with? I added Onion Creek to the bronco trail list thanks to you.
A DJI Mini 3 Pro. It's a phenomenal little drone and great for beginners. The "follow modes" are fantastic and it shoots in 4K.

I've recently purchased a DJI Mavic 3 Pro which is a few notches above. Can't wait to test it out!

Oh hell yeah! That's why I just got a new drone with 2x the range, 2x the top speed, and 2x the battery life!

Those are the two I've been looking at. I'd love to get the Mavic 3 for the higher quality sensor/optics but the Mini 3 Pro is so enticing for a drone beginner like me.

I recommend the Mini 3 Pro then. It's also a lot quieter. The Mavic buzzes pretty loudly.

Worst case, you'll wind up with two drones, or sell the Mini to get the Mavic.

Think a stock non-sas OBX could do this trail?
I'm so close to doing a road trip out west, and would love to see some great scenery, but not put myself in danger, as I'd likely be alone.

Yes absolutely. Easily. The only thing that could possibly be a problem would be the water crossings but it's my understanding that they're typically fairly shallow. But I'm not an expert on the area. If there are flash flood warnings in Southern Utah then I'd think twice.

How deep were the ones you went through in the video? They didn't look terribly deep.

They were pretty shallow. All were less than 6" I'd say.
Sweet! That video made me so jealous. I reallllly want to go out west but the 30 hour drive one way is a little daunting

Yeah mine is mavic air 2 it’s amazing. Maybe throw on an nd filter if super bright but otherwise it’s pretty much perfect out of the box… considering I had the controller on my passenger seat and one hand on the wheel and one hand on the joystick to get the x axis moves almost randomly haha

bronco is cool tech but damn the drone shows off even more in my book.

More from our little jaunt. Any Bronco or any vehicle that has minimal clearance can run this as long as the creek is not high. Basically just a gravel road with creek crossings. Very simple ride but super scenic. I liked that it gave a different view of scenery that most of the others areas, as you are in the bottom between narrow cliffs. Oh and that creek stanks.
