I'm thinking of buying this camera to put on the back of my Ferrari, to film some great shots from outside the car while driving and me sitting inside the car. But I also want to put it at the back of my Ferrari to record the sound while accelerating. Do you reccomend it? Oh, I also want to use it while skiing. And wich one do you prefer, the GoPro or the Crocodilis?
@ewavemedia Hi there. I am flying a diy electric hexacopter - as seen in my latest video
Turnkey ones can be bought for US$10k-20k but many choose to build like me for 1/10th the cost. Even the commercial ones require extensive r/c knowledge and setting up. While easier than an rc heli to fly, they still require similar skills to fly.
I am now testing camera stabilization which will keep the camera straight while I chase bikes etc.
@Radioactive - no i didn't see much difference but I haven't tried slow-motion with the 60fps yet. It does stutter if you pan too fast though, that's for sure.
There seem to be no difference n fps between 60 fps and 30. Is the video compressed to lower fps? It strutters a lot which makes it impossible to compare the different fps settings.
Thanks - I actually added a tilting mount last night - activated by the side slider of my Futaba 10C. At full up, it just misses the underside of the front motor at 1080p. I am already using video downlinks on my AP Trex600 and T700... and I have a spare which will be on this soon. I'm nearly finished a lighter hex (400g saving) so the downlink is waiting for that! Subscribe and watch this space ;)
Man! that's nice! U could easily add a servo controlled camera on it, with a transmitter to one of these glasses-displays, and charge people for "getting a flight" :)
Daughter... no, just some strange kid from the next street over! I asked her to go for a run as I wnt to test slowing the video down (it was shot at 60fps).
The diy hexacopter weighs 2.2kg including battery and has an Openpilot control board. It will lift 1.5Kg!

Great job! What kind of remote controlled helicopter was that? Loved it! Where can I buy the helicopter?

@Radioactive2011 remember, youtube also really cuts down video quality, especially frame rates!

Had fun chasing your daughter? :) (I assume). Anyhow, this heli seems quite powerful and quite stable! Nice video! How much does the cam weigh?
