NRS Report post Posted January 10, 2014 Now you just need to add a segment where you fly down and zoom in on the sticker on the back of your jeep for the closing credits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AzHuntingAddict Report post Posted January 10, 2014 This is not for the faint of heart as these systems can be pricey. I have been flying helicopters and planes for sometime and have always wanted to get the quad-copter. They seem to be a little bit more forgiving and stable to carry a camera. Amanda your going to love the F.P.V system and it will show with the product you get in video. I have seen setups where two people operate the system, one to fly and one to work a gimbal. Cant wait to see your next video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted January 10, 2014 AZhuntingaddict.....have you been filming with your helicopters and planes? post up some video if you want. NRS, great idea on the sticker shot! Thanks everyone for all the kind comments. Like AZhuntingaddict said, it's not for the faint of heart....it's nerve racking flying so much money out over canyons and cliffs and water! There are quadcopter forums and I have been reading about guys crashing these things all the time or even worse, they receive some sort of interference and just fly away and get lost somewhere! Keeping my fingers crossed that this doesn't happen to my quadcopter! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesWhitetail Report post Posted January 10, 2014 The brand of quadcopter is a DJI Phantom 2 with a zenmuse gimbal to stabilize the GoPro 3 camera. It's not really a good setup to film wildlife because the gopro has such a wide angle lens and there is no zoom on it and the quadcopter is so loud that it would be hard to get close to animals. DJI makes bigger 'copters that can carry larger cameras. A lot of film makers use the larger ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naturegirl Report post Posted January 10, 2014 So fun! I will NOT tell my husband about this! Our 5 year old picked out a $20 helicopter for Christmas for him and he absolutely loves it! He actually enjoyed it so much that he ended up buying one for his buddies at the station. Please post more videos as you get them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
