Here is another video that I made with my Miniature Aircraft Rotor X 404:

I was hired to film the aerial shots for this music video....these shots will be cut into the full length video.

Enjoy!

How cool is that! What setup did you use? Looks like a copter!

Here is the VERY FIRST aerial video I made...


I worked hard to get the music to actually match AFTER the flight, not before or during. The flight was done without music consideration.

Here are two of my early FPV videos (Summer 2010). At this point, I had only been flying a couple of months. These videos we created before I even met Josh Bixler. Funny intros.

Are these taken with the GoPro?, they look very nice!

Nice flying between the trees! I know some whose perfect flying field is a 100 square mile empty desert...

Nice flying. That is what I call threading the needle.

Are you flying a wing?

 

[JimCR120]

Wow, I like the video Eric. So stable. As I watch these, I was wondering, how loud are they when flying. I ask because I wonder that there might be a market in shooting games like highschool football and soccer for example and using those angles for the local news media venues. If it was too noisy they would certainly claim it was a distraction.

What do you think?

Thanks Jim,
we call it a paintball wing, its the same wing they were shooting paintballs at at SEFF last year

 

[JimCR120]

Do you have a pic of it somewhere? I'm in the middle of a wing build myself.

It's pretty much the same wing as I used for my FPV. It's based off the same design.

 

[JimCR120]

Ah very well and good then. Are you and Pecanpatch locals?

All of a sudden I feel like a nice warm slice of pecan pie with a scoop of icecream. Mmmmmm

 

[FlyingMonkey]

No, but we're connected through the field in GA, Hodges Hobbies. That's where the "paintball wing" got it's title. They were using them for charity, as paintball gun targets.

Here is the paintball wing I used flying under the trees. a really light weight awesome flying wing. E-flight 400 960 KV

 

[JimCR120]

Slick. I like how everything is smooth and well protected.

Hey Jim,


First, thanks a bunch! I have worked very hard at getting my copter to fly as absolutely stable as possible for aerial video. After 61 camera mount designs and literally months of work I have finally got it where I want it. (no jello-cam, no vibrations, etc.)

As far as how loud they are, I dont think that the noise would disturb a football game at all, in fact you prolly would be hard pressed to hear it.....however the sheer fact that these multi-rotors are not something alot of people in the public really have seen to much of....it could be quite a spectacle and could maybe cause players to not pay attention....etc. (at least until they became used to seeing it....if they knew about it ahead of time, it could be quite an amazing way to capture the moments. Obviously flying any type of copter near a crowd is another thing to take into consideration. An accident involving a spectator would be no good.

If you can find a way to fly safely at a game and capture some great moments.....I say go for it.

Happy and safe flying!


Eric
