Advise to create a "Weed Hunter Helicopter"

Hi everyoneI am trying to create a RC Helicopter able to work as a monitoring tool to look for invasive plants in remote areas of the Galapagos Islands. Ideally the helicopter will be able to fly a least for 30 minutes and be controlled at the distance of 500 to 1000 m, it has to include a GPS to guide the monitoring route and a transmitter camera to transfer the imagines of the vegetation.I am new in this field and so any suggestion about types of helicopter, brands and any additional technical information will be very useful. We are looking for the most economical but effective material which can be able to helps us to reduce costs.Any suggestion?ThanksJorge

    What size area do you need to survey? If it is a large area I do not think a helicopter would be a a good bet however MicroPilot has a helicopter capable autopilot and have done work integrating this autopilot for survey work in a helicopter.

    What's a "wedd"? If you mean "weed" can you please edit your subject line so people aren't confused?
