Hi Dirk,
Great video enjoyed that!!! me and a friend have been filming with a quadcopter all last year for TV, look forward to more of the same? Enjoy your new toy.

Thanks Pete for your nice comments. I guess you'll be using a more pro configuration?
And yes, there will be more to come. That video was just a test for our new movie about ... the Pyrenees. Just need to wait a bit till the high passes are open and the Pamplona bulls are ready to run with us ;-)

Cheers

Dirk

Great bit of film that...

Just out of interest what cam are you using on the copter?

I want one.

Great vid.

Very nicely done Dirk and some cool shooting with the copter camera too!

I wonder if these copter camera thingies can be programmed in any way to follow a bike for a solo rider?

The latest DJI phantom 2 can be pre-programmed to follow a set GPS plotted route using the new ipad ground station app http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pLl01qsHrU

Yes, I was reading yesterday , not sure if it was the Phantom or AR Parrot 2.0 that can be GPS pre-programmed (perhaps both) to take a set route. If I bought one it would need to be Android compatable. I certainly wouldn't be throwing that kind of wonga at one though!

Not bad. Pity you haven't edited out the camera shadow shots

I weep for the future when you post up a video of yours on here, I bet it's likely to rival Speilberg

Well done to the OP, I thought it was an excellent video!

 

[Giles]

Yep - bloody good. Well done.....

 

[Dansin]

Enjoyed that. Well done, looks professional to me!

Sorry I spoke old chap.

For me it would have been much better without the shadow of the camera in shot.

The video is excellent and I reckon that next time the OP produces a video, he will take the camera shadow into account at the filming and editing stage.

If it doesn't bother him or you, fantastic.

Enjoyed that - very nicely done

Looks like a great location too.

Wow

Thanks ...

Brilliant video.

Nice video. A friend of mine has just bought a quadcopter and i'm planning a wee video that he is going to help me make.

Hi Rocky,
it's the GoPro Hero3+.

Amazing video, well done!
Not to discount the obvious skill and time that must have gone into filming and editing but, isn't that technology outstanding!!

Thank you. But - no fishing for compliments - that little clip was only done for practising purposes. I hope that the complete movie, covering all of the Pyrenees, will become much better. However, what we need, is better weather!

Cheers

Great video, loved the camera shots & angles.

Well done mate

Thanks for sharing it, no doubt it will inspire others.
