Fall go pro shots

Aerial shots from within the neighborhood.

Went to a neighborhood in Illinois a couple of weeks ago and I luckily brought my quadcopter with me. With the installed go pro in it I flew it over the neighborhood. With fall setting in, paired with good sunset lighting, I captured these 2 photos just by hovering around a couple of hundred feet form where I was standing.

Same place with a different view.

Of course the go pro took some pretty good shots. I popped them into lightroom and did some adjustments. The results I got were awesome!

Quad shots late afternoon

Still flying my quad and taking shots! I've flown the quad probably a hundred times now. I am having so much fun with this thing. I have decided to take a sunset shot when I flew it this time.

Days are getting shorter due to winter approaching in a couple of months so I am now making the most out of the warm weather still.

Yes...here's good news from me.

Starting with aerial photography

I just got myself a higher end RC quad copter and I am having a blast with it. I'm still trying to get used to the controls and the flight modes but so far so good! It's a good thing to have experience in flying rc helicopters when starting to fly these things. They are so much easier to fly and much more stable.

So I finally attached my Go Pro camera to it and take some aerial shots. The Go Pro has excellent image quality compared to starter cameras that come with cheaper quads and that was the reason why I purchased a higher end quad, so I can at least mount a higher quality camera to it instead of just dealing with crappy image quality.

Here is one of my first shots with my new quad and my Go Pro:

I am actually loving this setup. I will post some updates when I fly more and take shots with this thing.
