Well I had to check the gutters, so I made it fun and quick and used the heli to run a perimeter around the roofline and used my old school camera that I use for my helmet cam to do this.... I've tried it on the 450 and it did ok back in Cali, but I could feel the extra 247 grams from the camera ! With the 500 I couldn't tell a diff at all... I placed it DIRECTLY under the main shaft to keep the CG centered and it worked so well... To perfect in fact, and was impressed... My next video will be with the onboard cam mounted. Can't wait !

I may get paid from a guy who wants some simple shots of some construction projects he has going for a website he's developing... Maybe it will pay for a few spare parts... Or better yet, a better camera. A pilot's got to do, what a pilots got to do....
