Brad (who is kelly's partner in the mikrocopter venture) was kind enough to shoot some video for us at perkerson in atlanta. This is some of the raw (unedited) video clips thrown together:

password = perk

Be sure to watch all the way through or fast forward to the end when he takes it up above the treeline

Ok. I am now a believer. That is impressive.

if they filmed a whole tourney like that this sport would be on tv no doubt

This video kicks major a**! I'm excited for the future of disc golf coverage.

I'm sorry, but Kelly's and Brad's stuff blows the other one out of the water. No offense. There could be competition in this, and that would be a great thing.

isnt that a mountain, and isnt where you are describing is the top of the mountain. I said you can't get much higher than the top of a mountain.:|

"Base" camp is at the bottom of Mt. Everest. Try to understand the language.

Love the quality of the video:thmbup:, though even with buffering it was very jerky for my viewing.

No, what I am saying is that this copter is replacing some of the technology that you think is superior and this EXACT copter is being used in much larger sporting events than disc golf.

Oh my god - ignorance at its finest! When did I ever talk about this copter as an example of inferior technology? Never. I've now repeated 3 times for you that I love this technology and I think it's awesome.

My concerns with using it to film an entire tournament are cost and logistics related, and technological limitations have to do with the actual camera in use, not with the copter or the mount.

Go back to prerubing people, or go do some research on cameras before you come at me with this silliness.

AWallen90 · Jan 27, 2013

Does anyone know how this was filmed? If it was with quadricopter like an AR drone those things only get 15 minutes of battery life. If they had high end cameras strapped on I would expect that battery like to drop. Filming an entire tournament would be absolutely awesome but imagine the number of batteries needed for that. But of course that's if they are using drones. I did not see the filming technology used, but I might have missed something.

Mabuku1 · Jan 27, 2013

take it easy, he know some stuff and you know some stuff. there's no need to get upset over a little helicopter camera discussion.

unless... you are the one that is going to start filming all the tournaments via tiny helicopters everywhere.

You all understand that this fight is to the death..... Touch gloves then come out swinging!

See you do not even want to discuss, you just want to insult. I have told you this has been used to film large events, which you doubt it has the capabilities to do. We get it you think you are king sh!t when it comes to cameras so you have to prove your "lens" is bigger than everyone elses.

This almost makes my head explode. You are feigning this daftness, aren't you? It can no longer be dismissed as jest.

Please, this thread was cool and the footage was sweet. Why'd you have to ruin it? This is the reason that we can't have nice things like this thing even though we may or may not have this thing when the major sports have this thing when no one ever said they didn't have this thing!

Sentence of the day.

thruhiker99 · Jan 27, 2013

What large events has this been used to film? I'd like to see a link, think it would be cool to check out.

SpringDgLover · Jan 27, 2013

Looks great, this is amazing stuff.

The first rule about the copter cam is we can't talk about the copter cam .:\

Apparently it has been used for cricket.
