Other air dog self flying/following camera drone!

[wakecanada]

came across this last night its a self flying quad copter that uses a go pro and a wrist band that when you wear it the drone follows you with the camera the entire time. can be hooked up to multiple users at same time and just press a button to swap who its following! and can adjust altitude angle etc via the wireless wrist tether. they claim all the footage was done with their working product not a manned controlled drone

pretty cool stuff will fold down to fit in a back pack. its not available yet but its almost done on kickstarter

Saw an article on it about a week or two ago. Looks like it will be a great new tool to capture some awesome footage!

One of these will hit the market soon. KickStarter may be 2 years out...

estimated delivery if you get one off kick-starter says nov 2014 so full production might now really be that far away

Yup, I'm still waiting on my lockatron going on year #2

 

[j0hnny]

really i already have my motoped. that project went to market like wildfire. but then again it is so much closer to normal mope price and is so much cooler. like if this thing was 750 or 800 instea of 1500. but if i had the money it woul be so workth it

 

[700Pirate]

hope it hits the market soon.

 

[crazy4sand]

I want one just hope it's going to be affordable, too bad I'm sure it dosent have a mechinism to avoid trees, cause on dirtbikes I Ride single tracks though the mountains, this would get some awesome footage

^is that an example of Ebonics?^

I can't wait to get my hands on one of these things, was about to buy a DJ1 drone, but this blows it away.

It does look better. But Only problem I can see it only uses only your smart phone to track you no separate tether . I don't want to bring my phone with me in the water or even on any action sport

perfect for the narcissist in us.

great toy but 10 to 20mn flight and 40mph max might be borderline for freeriding and surf but would be great for freestyle.
