If I ever had one... I might put a cheaper and lighter T2i/550D on it... or maybe an even cheaper and lighter GoPro (:
It is a combination of helicopter parts and camera mounts. It cannot be just "bought" It has to be built. Contact me directly for more information.
The video is all raw, once a smoothcam filter is applied it looks stunning. Yes, it has the Tonika 11 -16mm
Since you built this rig yourself, how hard/expensive would it be to beef-up the engine enough to cary something like the RED camera?
It seems like your rig would benefit from the extra weight and significantly smooth out your shots. Right now it looks like the wind will knock it off the shot somewhat easily. But you're obviously doing a tremendous job correcting for that with your flying.
The truth is that there is a whole lot too it. Much cheaper and quicker to hire a guy like me to come shoot for you and make your video project stand out.
Take Care,
Eric
Cheap : EFlite Blade 400 PNP
Better : TREX 600 ESP
Thanks! Align 700 TREX

But definitely won't carry any payload.
Will pick a topic for the next doc that can put the copter-cam to use!
Can you also remote control the focus?
I use a wide angle lens set to infinity for focus. It is possible to control, I just have not set that up.

Not a crash yet. It will happen though at some point.. That just comes with the biz.
Most likely build a back up to this one for Production shooting.

You should correct your info in the video details. The 5D/7D shoots 1920x1080 at 24P or 30P. ;)
About as much a new sub compact car! :)
Eric
Nope the footage you see is all raw.
Thanks,
Eric
Keep it up!!
And thanks for all your support and great products that make this possible.
Eric
Love to see more of your work..
I Really like it !
Anywhere to download/buy it ?
I hope you're going to try the GoPro 3D with it. It would be even lighter, and then you'd really get a lot of work.

For that matter, if you wanted to go 3D you could probably fit two 550d's with EF 50mm 1.8's and end up about the same as a 5d with big glass.
Congratulations Eric, I've only dreamed of this, but YOU DID IT!
(btw): Everybody is out of the Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 for Canon APS-c. You don't know where I could pick one up for the regular B&H price ($599.95) do you? (I just want it for ground use... honest.)
Thanks for the comments. I have no idea about 3D, but will do what my customers ask of me.
There is 2 Tokina's sitting here in Austin at Precision Camera. @ 599.00
really nice footage tough
thx
Be warned! you MUST be a proficient pilot or have one to place an order.
Thanks,
Eric Austin
PS. Tell em I sent ya! :)
But My Camera will be upcoming Sony NEX5 Compact Camera because it's light weight and comes with AVCHD video (1080p).
Will the helicopter run longer and higher if the camera is light weight? This one will be useful to shot wild animals as well! :-) So I can avoid danger and expensive lens as well ;-)
Please see the comment above.
Thanks,
Eric
All I have to say is get to a Ski Resort or contact ski/snowboard film companies. Filming heli video is big but your Aerial camera would solve the issue of hiring expensive film crews and helicopters. It would open the door to allow more aerial footage that people may not have thought they would be able to get. I bet resorts would pay to have film shot so they could post it on there websites as well.
May I ask what song(s) you used?
If you need the shot, hire someone already in the biz. You will be much happier in the long run, as will your wallet.
