The latest addition to the Von Piros camera gear , a waterproof quad copter that can land and take off in water. This is the first flight test. Not so perfect but no Band-Aids needed.....

That looks like the perfect tool for shooting the barrels at Teahupoo!

Holy sht how close was that to chopping off you at the knee caps. Very cool Von, anyone snaking for waves in fiji gets choppered.

does the operator have some sort of HUD that allows them to see camera view/position?

Looking forward to some more cool vids now with that little beauty!

One question though - would you put some buoyancy on the skids, or would that affect the flight too much? Might make it a bit easier to gain lift off the water & also save trashing the chopper when you get out in the surf.
