The WetHex and WetHex XL waterproof multirotors are now available. These build on the design of the WetQuad but in a hexacopter format. The standard model can lift up to 1kg. The XL up to 3kg depending on motors. We are also about to release the UniRotor convertible multirotor which can be...

Special promotion. I'll drop 10% off for the first 10 orders booked no matter what the configuration. These are great flying quads and hex. The right weight for the power system. Very stable (see the video) and safe to fly over water without risk of gear loss.

When flying off water floats can be mounted to the arms. I have foam ones that work quite well. As an alternative, small water bottles work as well. I've been looking into making roto-molded plastic floats that snap onto the arms. The electronics box is complete sealed on the bottom and it...

With and HDMI to Composite converter. The Cineplex site sells one.

Here are some more pics of how the quad breaks down and packs.

I saw a shop online that sold just the BEC/USB module separately. I forget where but just take a look around. They are available.

Please do. It's quite interesting to land on the water (assuming the camera is waterproof like a GoPro). I designed this one because we had a forced water landing on a offshore shoot last year that cost the camera (NEX-5), all the ESCs, all the batteries, and all the rear motor bearings. Quite...

Actually, the pressure is from a thermal difference due to the heat given off by the ESCs. Strange but it works. Even so, the only opening is a pin hole on the top of the case so it would have to land upside down and stay there for quite a while to get any water in the case. Even if such were to...

We just announced pre-sales of the waterproof quadrotors in ARF and RTF configurations. Pricing is still being set but we are starting production. Check out www.multirotorforums/showthread.php?4044-Waterproof-Quads-now-available. Hex is coming soon. This is the rig used to take the waterborne...

Demo video for the KISCopter waterproof, amphibious quadrotor. Just exploring production of our waterproof design developed for use in close in filming of regattas and other boating events. The design is based on the KIS principle, Keep It Simple which means: - All our frames are based...

Any chance you could send me some pics or drawings of your ball joint mounting. That might be the best way to go for our panoramic gimbal. Right now we are using a driven u-joint which works to a point, but it could be better.

And here is the promo video, or one of them, for our new waterproof quadrotor with GoPro. And the waterquad. These are going on sale soon for $100 for the frame, $300-350 with motors and ESCs and $600 with Naza RTF. Can fit MK electronics but best with Naza or Ardupilot.

Waterborne videos... ok, this was a production shoot of the Phuket Race Week regatta last year done with several MikroKopters flying FPV off of boats. The attached video is a 12 min highlights cut. We shot over 10 hours of raw footage in 5 days. I apologize for the edit.... it was done in...

Like this? This is my design. Am planning to test panoramic video which is what this rig is designed for. This is fine for very, very basic panoramics but the exposure will never be right. To do it right everything is manual. Manual shutter, manual F stop, Manual focus. Fixed white balance...

Totally agree on regarding the slanted horizon. Funny thing though, the first was shot during an automatic spherical panoramic shooting rig with an EOS600 and 50mm lens. The Phi Phi shot came from an old canon point and shoot on a tricopter flown from a boat. For panoramics a fisheye is...

This is just a simple test video and promo for our new waterproof quadrotor design. Carries a GOPro, fully amphibious (as you can see).

And another from Phi Phi Island...

Ok, I'm going to throw one our there shot in Bangkok. It's only one frame of a panoramic shoot (using our custom panoramic gimbal). Just a show... Agreed.. not enough photo/video pros also have the tech and RC down. Use to do photography, been flying RC (everything) for 30 years. Trying to pull...
