I have been working on this off and on for the last year. I have flown and raced r/c for quite a few years but was out of it for at least 10 years. I have been wanting to do some aerial photography for different things. I don't have any recent photos of the air frame but it is a quad copter with a gimbal and video camera attached. Here is a short video from a test flight tonight after doing some initial settings on the gimbal. I was having issues before with what they call jello affect. Seems to be pretty good now. I need to still mess with some of the settings, you can hear the motors making high pitch hums when it is first powered on.

I may have to start a new hobby now, as I really like that! Boy could I have some fun with my wife if it would be quieter!

I believe there was one of them at the Dover show but I only seen it for a couple minutes and he wasn't flying around. I think it was the photo guy that had the trailer and was taking pics of the tractor pulls and trying to sell the pictures out of the trailer.

It's not the best picture but here is what the quad copter I have looks like.

Don,

I think it should work now. I double checked the settings on youtube and it should show.

Here is another one after some more gimbal tuning.

Hey George,

     Still no go on the first link but the second video was cool. The shot looking down kinda looked like my belly with a green tee shirt on.
