My church does an annual fathers & sons overnight camping trip. This year we went to Myers Park just outside of McKinney. I took my quadcopter and got some aerial shots of the park...watch in HD!

Very nice! Mine is in the mail -- expect it any day now.

Do you have the waypoint ground station thingy that you use via an iPad to control?

No, It is pretty amazing technology, but I don't have a specific need for it yet. I just got FPV set up last week and it is awesome!

Jeesum! Fantastic quality video and great editing. Best thing I've seen since I used to fly a helicopter around myself!

Thanks! This one was just for fun, but I am putting together a portfolio of some other videos and I'll be doing some marketing before long.

Agree with Txkiller. That would be sweet for hunting pigs.

Are they difficult to control? Ive flown one of those little rc helicopters and they can get out of control quickly. Not comparing what you have to a cheap little helicopter, just asking.

It takes a little practice, but the one I have isn't too bad.

Thanks Texsun! If anyone has any good ideas of scenic places around DFW that would make for good aerial video, let me know!

They will put a lot of survey companies out of business. The FAA will probably have to make a move sooner than later.

Youtube DJI Phantom 2, gps flight control, iPhone remote view, and a hd cam on a gimbal.
