Draganfly R/C Helicopter: Inexpensive Aerial Photography
May 6th, 2007
John Sembrot just pointed out an post from last year that talks about the Draganfly R/C helicopter that would be great for doing sub aerial real estate photography. This build it yourself rig is only $2500, only one fourth the cost of most electric helicopters that I’ve heard about.
If you trace back the links to the company that sells the kit (Draganfly Innovations, Inc ) they have a great little video on their site that describes the Draganfly.

How good can the images be from this? I’m almost sure that if you tried to make a print ad from it the quality wouldn’t be there. I could be wrong but some how I doubt it.

The resolution on the camera for this is horrible. You’d be better off hiring someone with the right equipment…. You’d also save a ton of money… this is just a toy mainly for fun….
