That is a video camera to survey building structure after a hurricane etc. One guy operates the camera and 1 guy pilots the heli. It also has a camera that the pilot views through an eye piece so he can fly the heli even when it is out of sight.

That is actually much much larger than a t-rex. It can be hard to judge scale in videos like this though. By the looks of it i'd say it's likely a 50 or 90 size bird converted to electric power.

Yeah after looking at it again I can tell that it is much bigger than a trex. In any case that would be the coolest job ever!

That camera ship is a stretched Logo 14. It has custom carbon frames which include the camera mount that can rotate 180 degrees up and down, and 360 degrees round and round. It takes one guy to fly the heli, and one guy the fly the camera. it has another camera mounted on the frame pointing forward and the pilot has a little screen on one eye of his glasses so he can see from the heli point of view at the same time as seeing from the ground.
It is a very impressive pieve of kit!
