Be warned, this is not high quality filming. Real good example of the "jello" effect.

It is a stripped down HD keychain cam mounted to the belly of the Hubsan.

At one point (1:30) it descends rapidly, then several feet from the ground the motors just stop. That was not something I commanded it to do. This little Hubsan is prone to glitches when it gets about 50 feet away.

    Is that something you built?
    Or something you modified?
    RC controlled?
    I can't believe how small it is
    Nice

    Nice! Were you driving by video or was it just recording?.... sounds like it's being chased by a Yeti though :-)

    It is a Hubsan X4 H107 RC quadcopter. It is unmodified except for the keychain cam stuck on it's belly. I also use the slightly larger 350mAh battery, standard is 280mAh.

    It was just recording. I do have a really small camera and transmitter but it is probably still too big for the Hubsan. I think the stripped down keychain camera weighs only 7 grams.
