Title: Imagine recording your trip with this cool device
Post by: BigJules on May 09, 2012, 11:05:03 AM

Most of us have digital cameras, with video, some of us have GoPro's or other mounts for our cameras, but imagine if you could record those epic bits of your journey in HD, from the air!

Check out this little baby. four rotors, HD video and controlled by an iPad or Android tablet.

We have one in the office. Pretty neat, but rather noisy.

If it were hovering over my Cruiser as I crossed the Murray, or spun up a tough track somewhere I don't think I'd hear it.  ;D

You control it from your iPhone via Bluetooth - which has a range of about 10 meters or so.
