Yep.
More detailed description from expirienced guy like you could definitely be very useful.

My understanding is that larger drones, with GPS and with complete sensors packages are much more easy to fly.
As controller could make most fo the work.

@robbie75vr
Can you list what makes up a complete kit and recommendations? Thanks

I fly the GH2+ 7-14mm with an octocopter, this is the result

If you guys are totally beginner with these toys remember that it's a long way before you'll be able to safely shoot aerial footage, and there are lot more expenses to complete the very minimal kit, it's not just the copter...

Those quads can't fly with GH2. Maybe some with much powerfull motors and bigger propellers.
I have this like Oktokopter https://www.mikrocontroller.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=80&products_id=586&zenid=c43e06b6e7bd5f76ed69751ce6ce8ba1

It's weight about 1.2kg but when I add GH2 (650g), 4S 6000mAh battery (600g), camera mount (500g), video transmiter and some other small electronics this Okto weight more than 3kg.
With all this payload it can fly max 10min.

Yes, my gh2 with lens only weighs 600g.

I want one so bad.

I think they could fly GF3 with pancakes without problems.

@Max

Interesting.
Please write here during construction process, ok?

I order 'multiwii' controller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250947544755
it has accelerometer, and based on 'arduino'.

gizmo

Add at least few hundreds more over this for all parts needed and most you will be able to attach
at this multicopter is Gopro.
Trust me, I know what I'm saying (and doing) :)

...And you propose this is much cheaper than buying a multicopter as-is?

Vitaliy_Kiselev

Start making multicopter :-)
And attach camera to it as you finish :-)

Pardon my ignorance - but what can I do with this?

Howdy, Stranger!
