Footage got better by turning the sound off. I wonder if editors in general have poor taste in music or are simply trying to convey their excitement thru dub step background music.
That's not dubstep bud

#12Nice footage but I didn't really like the editing. On a side not, damn $900 and it can fly 22 minutes. That sounds very little, I hope this things will improve soon they sound amazingly fun!
I would have said "damn, $900, and it can fly 22 minutes!". That seems like a hell of a lot to me, based on what was possible just a few years ago.

Just curious, which music would you use? This happens to be important to me, so some analysis would be appreciated. EDIT: Assume only a visual feed was available, no audio.
I would frankly like to hear the sounds of a spewing, gushing, burning volcano, even if it's underneath the (also very fun to listen to) sound of the drone itself and all the wind noise. It doesn't seem like a huge leap in intuition to realize that this would be exciting to hear even if the environment is noisy.
Every sound you've ever heard on a nature program is fake, that is to say it's mixed in after from other sources.

22 minutes is a really long time for a drone.
As for $900 - it survived getting way too close to an active volcano... this is good stuff.

The footage has been set to Bad Wings by The Glitch Mob - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2thkapBJYfg

Anything that doesn't drown out the visual experience would be nice.

#18This is supremely cool.
Tangential stupid question:
Obviously there's been a ton of buzz lately (and innovation) in the drone space.
What's the big technological driver that's allowed / caused this to happen? I don't know the details of the internals but it seems that the tech has been around for a while (radio controlled planes, servos, helicopters, smallish cameras, etc.).

>Every sound you've ever heard
That's a really broad claim. DO you have a source for this statement?

#20I guess there's supposed to be a video there. Can I have a link to it?
