Drone aficionados,
In what has now become a weekly update for our KickStarter campaign I'd like to show you a demo of the Easy Drone XL Pro autonomous flight using 3DR Tower app. Hope you enjoy!
By the way - we are ninety two percent funded at this point and are expecting to reach our goal in the next few days. You can check out more details on Easy Drone and the campaign here:

"Wyatt" ... It's true that 45 minutes is fairly easily achievable these days. I actually just built/integrated a completely foldable (fits in a backpack) copter from available commercially available parts that flies 46 minutes *with* gimbal and gopro. And yes, with Pixhawk autonomous flight is built in. So yes, claims of "firsts" and "unheard of" are exaggerated ... That said that's just the rules of marketing and fundraising these days. And such copters are still rare.
It does require quite a bit of know how and experience to spec and build such a system. So there is value in designing, offering, and supporting a complete RTF package, where one just hits the buy button. As such this is a great project. (I have no connection with this company).
