Chopper Camerawork
Someone just posted this on MTB-OZ, thought it would be of interest here:
A guy I know from the aerial photography forum has been experimenting with aerial video using his radio controlled helicopter. His stuff is awesome, and includes chasing someone down a ski slope, while operating the controls while he skied down behnd!
But I reckon the real appeal of his work is the brilliant editing and juxta positioning of the different elements,.

id love to have a go at all that but id rather spend the 5 to 10 grand on a bike rather than a remote chopper and a hi quality vid cam!
i know some of you might think differently but ive less chance on smashing a bike to peices than a remote chopper!
Seeing as your chances of smashing a bike to bits are a sure thing... hmmmm
That is the future of sports video. Mtb, skiing, whatever. The heli's will get bigger and more expensive too.
