The drone pilot has some serious skills, flying the compact DJI Avata past and even through some very precious Porsche metal.
To showcase the agility of the DJI Avata, the company asked Porsche if it could fly the compact drone through its famous Stuttgart museum, and the resulting video is a work of art. The pilot has some astonishing skills, flying the drone past and sometimes even through or under priceless pieces of Porsche history.
The video is worth the watch just to see the maneuvers that the flying camera can pull off, but more importantly, it also gives those of us who have never had the opportunity to visit the Porsche Museum a chance to see what stunning machinery is on display there.
There are always amazing vehicles on display here, but sometimes the company will do something extra special. Last year, it unveiled an exhibit celebrating 50 years of the original RS, and while those cars are not all present in the video, we get a much bigger variety of models to look at here.
Among them, the Rothmans Porsche 953 that inspired a special livery on the off-road-biased limited-edition 911 Dakar, several 550s, 356s, and old 911s, and even the legendary Le Mans-winning 917K in its incomparable Gulf Oil livery.
The original 911 GT2 also makes an appearance, as does the Porsche Cayenne Transsyberia.
The Carrera GT, the famous Pink Pig that inspired the late Ken Block's Pikes Peak-bound Hoonipigasus livery, and even a Porsche TAG Turbo-powered Marlboro McLaren F1 car all make an appearance. It's a smorgasbord of air- and water-cooled icons here, and we only wish we had the opportunity to visit the museum regularly.
If you feel the same way we do, CarBuzz is not offering an all-expenses-paid trip to Stuttgart, but we can recommend that you check out the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. From now until April 2024, 40 famous Porsches will be on display to celebrate 75 years of the automaker's existence.
