Hands off hover

The idea is to not to have to haul out, transport, install, use, uninstall and haul back a jib or crane back to the studio by using a quad copter. Winds, head, quartering, and cross, were gusting 0-12 kts.

Here is the view from the GoPro watching the Phantom: http://youtu.be/RSrsF_Jdys0


Searched the forum for how to embed youtube and couldn't find it.

Nice. I'd like to see video it captured. If you have Zenmuse H3 and it's anything like mine, you can hardly tell it's moving. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdvjNGY ... VSNdmm127A

Great idea. Here it is: http://youtu.be/RSrsF_Jdys0

I haven't done your experiment, and it will depend on satellites and wind/weather, but I would say my P2V+ is usually more stable than what your video showed, and stationary objects like your truck are more stationary in the video FOV.

Mine as well
but a true test would involve getting higher out of ground effect, and clear of rolling winds off the truck

every skydiver knows winds roll 4 times the distance as the hight of objects

Thanks. For some dolly and jib shots, this is where the camera would have to be. More testing to come, I guess. (but, a fun way to spend time)
