About Me:
Arduino fan working with an EasyStar to get video and stills. We have just added a co-pilot to our twin boom EasyStar. Right now I am working on a BlimpDuino.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

Take a look at the Drift Innovation Stealth camera. I have 3 of them and use them on vehicles, planes and attached to poles. They work great.

I took that picture with the Drift HD170 but I did not have it set up for transmitting video. We have been doing some testing with output though and as I learn more I will certainly share. We have thought about interrupting

"I have been using the camera for almost a year and the quality is awesome. It will be fun to follow your progress, good luck."
This was a test photo we did with our manually controlled twin EasyStar. Can't wait to get the Ardupilot and fpv rolling.
"Been on twitter for awhile now and it's great for kicking info out I am @dougconnell"
"I use a Flip HD but want to switch to something else too. I am trying to compare the Sony Webbie and the GoPro camera - both take stills and can shoot video and look really good. I just can't decide.
thanks"
thanks"
"Sounds like a great plan I have been shooting video and pulling stills from a flip HD camera mounted on our easystar, we don't have an autopilot yet but hopefully soon. Will you keep us posted as to your progress and camera choice?
thanks"
thanks"
"Hi Mike -
Thanks for sharing, looks like a nice mount. I look forward to any results that you are willing to share using the Webbie. I use a flip with the magnetic lens attachment and we are still trying to figure out the best way to stabilize the…"

Happy New Year Everyone -Does anyone know if it is possible to feed a fpv composite signal into and iPhone of iPod? I have done a bit of research but have not found any information on this subject.thanks,Doug
Here is an interesting story about a photographer who uses his own homemade quadcopter to photograph images for clients.correct linkhttp://www.time.com/time/video/player/0,32068,58379936001_1949970,00.html

It looks like you have a pretty stable shot and nice perspective. Is it difficult to mount the camera and does the camera have any image stabilization built into to it? We fly the flip on an easy star and we are first adding a co-pilot and…"

"Here is a pic of the lens mounted on the flip. The 2 additional photos show the same scene with and without the lens. The lens increases the field of vision but looks like it might cut the f/stop by 1 stop and soften the image. When we are up in the…"
Recently there was quite a bit of discussion about the Sony Webbie camera and the addition of the magnetic lens attachment. Has anyone had the chance to fly the Webbie with the lens. I use the flip and it seems to work pretty good with the lens…
"I have also acquired a magnetic lens system that I use it on my flip camera. I think I have increased the field of vision by about 35%. We don't have to go nearly as high and it seems to have helped in smoothing out the video a bit. Still not sure…"
"jasonshort - thanks for sharing your experience. I have added lenses to the flip externally and they work ok, would you mind sharing your lens adaptation for the flip? I have been researching the ardupilot and trying to understand how it might work…"
