Sick of straining your arm to get that all-important above the crowd video angle? Here's a solution that will give you a true birds-eye view. Due to hit the market at the end of the year, FlyingLift is a remote controlled quadrocopter which can carry a conventional video camera of up too 500 grams in weight while beaming images back to the ground in real-time. The system consists of an electrically powered carbon fiber chopper, a backpack-mounted receiver unit, a hand-held controller and a set of video glasses which deliver what the camera sees to one eye while leaving the other eye free to follow the quadrocopter in flight.

Nudist beach near Byron......
Hahaha. As if any of the back beaches of Broken Head have anybody with clothes on........
I've heard they're harder to learn to fly than a real helicopter. Have a look on You-Tube at all the remote helicopter crashes, as much carnage as the real thing, plus you lose your camera!
We had one on a job I worked on a few years ago but it had a film camera in it. The thing was big though, the rotors were about 6 feet around.
Scary as hell when it came close.
I've heard that these new multi rotored helli's (some have four) are much easier to fly and their performance is absolutely amazing.
Speaking of flying toys.. I thought these are pretty cool..

Just need some sort of software that makes it hover about 2-3 metres above and behind you, perhaps linked to some GPS.
