Title: GoPro drones, anyone have one?
Post by: Scottymon on December 20, 2015, 10:42:14 pm

Always fancied one of these to hook up to my GoPro for Mountain Biking / Snowboarding etc.

I haven't done a lot of research, but see you can now get some which Auto follow target GPS, so someone doesn't have to be piloting and not having fun.

Anyone have one?  Any suggestions? :happy2:

Im looking at the dji phantom 2.it is good priced and is very stable.  Not sure about the Auto follow gps.

Somebody used one at blyton (Im surprised they allowed it) to get ariel shots of the trackway. Made some great angles.  No auto follow though.  There was one (auto following) on kickstarter that looked promising but i think the project has gone bust

Cheers for the suggestion, I'll take a look at that.

Yeah, some of the drone footage is crazy good - think I'd like one with Auto Follow, probably big bucks.

I have a dji f550, can handle a higher payload with more stability and gimbal...

Did Dom Tester keep his account active? He uses some monster copter / video gear doesn't he?
