So,   I was thinking of making a multicopter with a HD camera, that was something like what you find on when you search against "http://vimeo.com/37132333" , but had the added features of gps tracking , autopilot , and some awesome controllable lights ( to amaze people at night) ..  Hope it would be silent as well..   So here I start my journey , thank you in advance for any advice on what sort of noob "kit" I could buy to get this project up and running , and thanks guys for the new hobby too…See More
