Check it Out! FPV, Multicopters used in a Discovery Documentary

I just noticed on Popular Science that Discovery Channel is putting out a new documentary called "Winged Planet". Looking at the previews, I was delighted to see that they have built a FPV Vulture with HiDef cameras, and they also used a multicopter for other shots.

Detailed here: http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/winged-planet/videos/making-of-wi...

Airing tomorrow October 6th at 20:00 East / 19:00 Central
