Here is another trailer from the master Marcus Gelhard of team Gaui at the 2012 3DMasters. I think Gaui chartered their own jet to get all those pilots there.

Some of you close to me may know that I had about six months ago taken a job with A Main Hobbies in Chico, California and that for the last year have been entertaining deals of selling RCHeliResource.Com to several other entities in the industry. It’s now official, RCHeliResource.Com has been sold to RCGroups/Flying Giants for an undisclosed amount. With that I have decided that my role here at RCHeliResource should now be minimized and I will be taking a more advisory role as a consultant rather than the guy behind the camera and the team manager. I guess it can be said that I am joining the ranks of veteran industry personalities who are taking a back seat or just leaving the industry all together…yes I am talking about you Tareq Al Saadi and Lukas Riva. Of course none of this could have been built without my amazing and dedicated management team, Sean Williams, Terry Williams and Everett Balmores, all of which have been given equity share in RCHR for their years of blood sweat and tears building this once novelty site into now the industry’s 2nd ranked worldwide. Also important are the scores of volunteer contributing media staff, authors, photographers, sales people and videographers. They helped build RCHR into what it is today. With that, we are passing on the helm to the capable hands of Mr. Jim Bourke and his talented staff to take RCHR to the next level and continue the legacy of worldwide media coverage of the RCHelicopter Industry/Hobby.

I was hoping someday this would come out. Looks like it has. Photohigher has a brand new website and on that website looks like they also listed the dream all of us aerial photo jockeys wanted.
The Photo Higher Emergency Ballistic Deployment Recovery system (BDRS)
is the first commercially available emergency recovery system for unmanned aircraft.

Well, everyone I am sure has been disappointed to see that there really isn’t a commercial solution that really works well for plug in play to stabilize a camera on a camera gimbal. Sure there are a few out there…even a few that are integrated into flight systems but none of them come close to being 100% effective and/or practical. I am using a Naza separate from my Wookong-M and I am sad to say it doesn’t work that well and it doesn’t work as it should. I am working with DJI now to help them get it working as it should. In the meantime looks like Tabb was fed up and just developed his own which is something I was going to do but I have another electronics project in the pipeline that I have to finish before I can delve off into that. Here are some pretty promising looking shots from Tabb over at Freefly and I am sure you will be impressed at the raw footage right off the camera. No name, price or release date yet…hopefully I will get to help beta test this one Tabb.

Looks like Snaproll media has released their new reel for 2012 and it looks amazing. The RC industry has now given birth to a subset called Aerial Videography using RC Helicopters instead of conventional scale ships. Its truly enlightening to see how quickly this segment is emerging. Im sure there are many new goodies to come in the remainder or 2012 and 2013.
