GoPro meet F450

Posted on by gdotarroyo

This past week I introduced my GoPro Hero 4 to my DJI F450 quadcopter. In the video above you can see how it is attached on a 3 axis gimbal. This allows it to stay steady even when I’m flying around. I have since also added a transmitter and monitor which will allow me to see on the ground what my camera sees in the air.

Now I just have to wait until we get some decent weather. I can’t wait to capture some video and especially photos from an all new perspective.

The video was originally posted on Instagram, thus the square crop. read more

Aerial Photo and Video

Posted on by gdotarroyo

This past few months I have become obsessed. The FAA announced that they are planning to require a pilots license for commercial radio controlled aerial photography along with other regulations. I thought, hey that is something I could do. I have a private pilots license, lots to RC experience and I’m a photographer. I wanted a aerial video/photo platform, I want to try this out and add another skill. As of right now I own a small video capturing multi-rotor. I am using this to practice flying and video technique. As my skills improve I plan to build a much larger and more stable video platform to produce high quality videos. Would you be interested in capturing truly unique aerial photos and videos? Leave a comment below. read more
