The drone couldn't go too low or kite lines would swat it out of the sky.
Sandgate is in north brisbane.

Pretty sure there are a few places in Australia called Sandgate, like Sandgate in Newcastle and there is probably a Sandgate in England too.

Impressive that they can handle 25kt winds! That would hurt most RC fliers.
And yah, need to get a bit closer to make the highlight reel, but still very cool.
