PROFESSIONAL QUADCOPTER WITH GPS RRP $699!
This advanced quadcopter is designed for the RC enthusiast! It can be flown with superb stability thanks to the onboard altitude/position hold feature. It will hover by itself meaning constant throttle adjustments are not required. It also includes an onboard GPS which allows the quad to return to its starting position automatically. Flick the "turn back" toggle switch on the remote and the quad will return to home like an obedient robot drone by flying upwards, then towards its origin then slowly descending automatically, landing and switching of its rotors. Spring action on the remote control enables fine adjustment to mid-air positioning. To assist with directional judgement, red and blue LEDs are located on opposing ends of the shafts, while two eyeball-like LEDs sit at the front of the unit, for a personable, semi-sentient appearance. With additional attachments available separately, a GoPro can be mounted to the underbelly. There is a standard bracket (GT-4042) for taking fixed position footage. We also have a gymbal mount for GoPro Hero 3 (GT-4044) that gives excellent video stability with minimal vibration from the chopper. This is the ultimate addition for documentary style video smoothness and professionalism. A final note: This is not a toy! While hours of fun can be had flying it around, this quadcopter really is suited to the hardcore RC enthusiast. We don't call it the Professional for nothing!
