Everything I have from 3DR sucks...

Yes, please change it to "Arducopter Developers are Awesome".



But seriously, I think interaction like this is what makes Arducopter/Pixhawk the best system on the market.

Maybe the original owner would be ok with it? Or discussion can be moved somewhere else ...

I've certainly enjoyed the conversation, but the title doesn't fit the conversation.

Most general mapping can be done with a 200 gram camera though. And you can fly that for 30 minutes on a 2kg quad with 15" props.

48 minutes actually.

Thanks for the explanation about development Robert.

I'd like to see it done.

This just in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvU3FhmPOv8

40 minutes flight time with Zenmuse and Gh4. That's awesome. Well, at least to me ...
Have a hard time imagining similar set-up with DSLR wouldn't do 30 minutes. But I'll agree no hard proof yet ...

I was referring to a quad carrying a Black Magic pocket cam or an MSI. A full on DSLR would not allow a 48 minute flight with the craft I referenced..
