Remote Control Helicopter flight with HD Hero

I know there’s a million videos of the HD GoPro Hero being flown around by remote control helicopters, but since I wanted to show you what it looks like myself, and since I refuse to ever use pics or videos that I didn’t make myself, I had to make my own.

This is probably not the Worst one ever made; the helicopter had an unbalanced rotor and editing was done on a computer from another decade, yet it’s still fun to see the amazing view from such a simple contraption.

This video was taken in Mesa AZ last week.

A Remote Control helicopter flight

GoPro HD Hero camcorder (original)

 

Shot this video when a fight broke out while enjoying a dinner at an otherwise excellent restaurant at Niagara Falls tonight.The HD Hero (original) gets only passing marks for this night time video due to:

  • The amount of time it took to get it from Off-to-Recording
  • The noise from handling the waterproof case
  • The inability to simply open a hatch to let the sound in (one Could easily remove the casing…)

This was shot at 720 and 60fps, with the full waterproof casing on and in a very dimly lit area.
