While it may not have the handling or picture quality of a more expensive drone, Canadian dad-vlogger David Freiheit’s DIY set-up gets some pretty spectacular footage at a fraction of the price.

Freiheit got the idea when he found an inexpensive foam glider at a local store and decided to attach an old GoPro to the top and to see what would happen. After a few failed attempts, he was able to achieve a respectable “quadruple loopty-loop” before crashing to the ground. Credit: David Freiheit via Storyful
