Clever! As the poster says, "This is a prototype, soon to be available at www.cxndesigns.com"
And this is why patents were created! Got to love the spread of a novel idea turned into something even more novel! Love it! I'll buy 6.

Comment by Kabir on September 1, 2012 at 12:37am Pretty nice! I wish the entire system was a bit smaller though.
Comment by Carl La France on September 1, 2012 at 4:13am That is really cool Can it be set up to work automatically on it's own or just manual

Nice job. Is that a giant scale servo on the pan? I'd prefer if it was made from something other than wood though.
Comment by Aleksandr Akulov on September 1, 2012 at 10:39am I'll buy 3
Comment by Amilcar Lucas on September 1, 2012 at 11:52am Cool, it looks like it will just work "out-of-the-box" with the latest APM release.
The latest code is able to use a configurable servo output to control the camera retraction.
So Carl, yes it can be set up to work automatically !
Comment by Carl La France on September 2, 2012 at 7:34am That would be really neat the plane flies to a way point turns to a heading the camera deploys takes pix retracts flies back
