I'm looking for some good locations to mainly film my car for a little project to get me into video editing and learn some cinematic moves with my Mavic Mini
I was hoping to get something in the style of what Jon is doing here, but London is full of people and traffic - never any peace to fly the drone.

An empty car park like this would be amazing, but could also be something industrial, disused factory grounds or similar.
Failing that - nature, but not sure how far away I will have to drive. I'm in Canary Wharf.

thanks!

Somewhere in Battersea Park perhaps? I'd say it's worth a look.

I've been taking my kids to Battersea for years and always seems very busy, at least on weekends. Perhaps I will try it on a weekday, thanks

I get that it's normally to busy anywhere in the south to fly a drone as I"m having the same problem with my Mavic mini but I would guess that that footage was taken very early in the morning before most peps are awake, including me!

Think the answer is you need to put the effort in to get the results.
I have a drone shot in mind for my local area but sometimes having checked that there's going to be fog/good weather in the morning I still don't make it out of bed.
