Ive been taking pictures from a remote controlled helicoptor for a few months now and i spent last week at lake powell so i took a few pics.
some of them arnt very great as the weather was crappy, like 20mph wind and mostly overcast.
if your interested in my setup you can read about it here.

Ya its tough to learn to fly an RC helicoptor, it took me 20-30 hrs of practice to just hover a few feet off the ground!
now to hover steady at 200 feet carrying a camera took quite a few more!!
i have been flying for 2 years and have probably 200 hrs total time
Ya lake powell is awsome, we have a houseboat there so i go at least a few times a month in the summer. its only 2 hrs from my house!
the pics were taken some at 8 am and some at 2pm |
