Camera that can do 12MP photos and shoot 1080p60 video.
best thing is that it is 1:1 in size with GoPro, hence all gimbals work perfect. And cost <$90.

After an extensive adventure with the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+, I can definitely say that the product has a lot of good going for it. Its aerial performance, maneuverability, level of control, and options are excellent. In addition, its H3-3D gimbal is a marvel of stabilization mechanics, enabling the camera to perform flawlessly and rivaling the stability of professional aerial footage. The drone's ability to fly home once connection has been lost with the controller is a highly accurate fail-safe that acts as the unit's ultimate insurance. Once the user has gotten the hang of the Phantom 2 Vision+, it is flat out fun to use, especially after learning all sorts of maneuvers that will aid your production. RAW capture is a great feature, as well as the performance of the DJI Vision application, which allows simple operation of the camera, in addition to several image recording options

Ehang Ghost-L Cell Phone Controlled 4-CH Quadcopter Why props going down?! the only advantage would be in case of a prop nut getting loose, overwise, less stability, worst cooling, less room under the quad for gimbal...

Btw, the best result I had with my "cheap" setup : phantom 1 + 3 axis gimbal + GP3+be

@Adam_Mercier It looks smooth maybe even too smooth :) Which x3 gimbal did you use in this clip?

Do any of these work with a dual GoPro setup ? As in 2x cameras in a GoPro 3d rig ? Just checking if the copters are specifically built for a single GoPro.

The 3D rig is not so much about the heli. It's more a matter of there not being gimbals designed with that in mind (at least that I know of). You could probably find a 3 axis gimbal that's designed to carry a small mirrorless cam and adapt it to fly a 3d gopro rig. Once you determine the total weight of the gimbal and camera(s), you can then start looking at what type of heli you'd need to carry it. Definitely more than Phantom though.
