Nice smooth video, not the best day for it though so everything looks a little flat and it lacks the contrast/dynamic to really grab your attention. Also not quite sure about the transitions you've used when you've cut it al together the blackouts stop the flow.

Sorry to sound critical, you've definitely got the technique down just need a little more luck with the weather and some more time in post.

I love feedback - Its all about learning and getting better right , I'm a noob with Sony Vegas so just getting used to the basics , Would you say it would be better just to jump the clips right in ? and not have any fade in ?

very good quality, very stable image.
Do you ever worry you will loose control or a big wind gust might crash it?

I did lose connection a few times at Durdle door ! No idea why but GPS wasn't the best down on the beach ! I think I'll stick to the hill side next time , It was a very over cased day but in the summer you get that horrid sun flare on the water & Millions of people on the beach

What creates those blury artefacts when the camera pans up and down rocks up close or at the beginning when you fly away from the site? Is it some sort of frame rate conversion or shortcoming of the camera?

I think this is to do with the settings I have used on the Drone - I record at 30 FPS on the drone but in Sony Vegas I render the Video at 24 FPS in 4K so this is what I'm guessing causes the slight blurr on the fast pans
