    Medium size Hexacopter

    It depends what you want to spend really. The xAicraft hexa frame is quite nice, or you could go for a Droidworx frame if you have a bit of cash, or as Cinestar if you have a lot of cash. The coptersky website is down, so I can't look at those. What makes the Flamewheel 550 arms so heavy by the...

    stpfl, I love your video. The rear shots from the plane look great, like it's been pursued aggressively, as in a car chase, by the octocopter - looks quite sinister. I made this video, not at all dramatic, yesterday to test the anti-jello steps I'd taken on a new xAircraft hexa frame with a...

    New flight video! A new way of thinking...

    I like the video, but I don't think the soundtrack suits at all.

    Very nice picture though. :)

    I think the general consensus has been to use manual focus, focusing on infinity, for aerial videos. However, I think if the camera is good enough it's good to let it auto focus - so you get nice far off images, yet sharp close-up stuff too if you fly close to objects and written signs etc.

    Cool, like the high speed railway footage. I think you need to FPV it in future though so you don't get lost. I also like Gunter's, Spider Shadow on Coat in Winter Sun. :)

    I filmed this in a park the other day. I was quite surprised to see so many nice colours at this time of year.

    That's great, love it. Music fits well too. Is that Alameda as in just across the way from San Fransisco? I really want to go there sometime soon.

    Fantastic scenery (jealous) and video. I'm guessing you use a small ccd camera to see where you're going, same as me? Is the music The Beta Band, haven't listened to that in a long time? :)

    Here's a shot of me trying to take a picture of myself with a hexa with some mirror on a roll behind me to get a reflection. As you can see there no discernible reflection of a hexacopter, so fail. I thought it might give people some ideas though. Also, look at the concentration on my face -...

    llbr22, like the text at the beginning and the film colour, and the mad heli 3d skills. Jeff, that's amazing - it works so well. I still haven't had a proper go at night stuff yet. I made this video on a rather bleak and cold day last week, my fingers were too numb by the end so we had to stop.

    That's a good demo for the Gopro2 at night, I have been wondering what it might record like at night.

    juz, that's fantastic flying, looks like great fun and scenery. Av8Chuck, I'm using a Panasonic SD 800 at the moment. I think I was very lucky with the weather/light and zero wind and, of course, the location though it has left me wondering what to do next. :) I like seeing videos of people's...

    Well, when I got there it was closed, off season. But there was a guy making crafts in a little farmhouse on the grounds, I waved at him and said hello and he waved back and said hello then watched me fly around then waved goodbye when I left.

    Looks really good all empty, especially the bridge. I was thinking of having a look at Bolton Abbey too, it's about halfway between me and you. I put this video together today from stuff we did a few months ago as an example of what we could do later when they get more cars. This was shot a few...

    About 25 miles north of York, just on the edge of the North York Moors. Where is your video filmed, it looks almost totally deserted?

    I made this film of a large abbey ruin the other day, conditions were perfect.
