The pilot is using FPV (Fatshark) and what looks like a GoPro attached to a DJI Flamewheel in this video featured on MSN.

Thats great stuff! What if you battery runs out and you have to retrieve your Phantom in the Lion's den?!

Yeah, that would not be pleasant...assuming anything was left of it after being mauled by a lion or hyena. :mrgreen:

I'm surprised the animals aren't spooked by the sound of the props. I remember one member (OI Photography, I think) saying that the prop wash tended to frighten domestic horses.

Beautiful footage. However, I'm not sure i would trust my surroundings while wearing goggles. Especially when standing in the wilds of Africa. You never know what might be stalking you.

Geez...never thought about that. Do you think the quadcopter operator was alone? If so, he's one brave soul.
