For UAV Photography, visit http://nextwavedv.com for more news, reviews and training. We visit DJI Innovations to check out their Phantom Drone for UAV Photography.

This UAV Photography video is an intro to the DJI Phantom Quacopter, footage from the NAB 2013 trade show.

Which means the; National Association of Broadcasters advocates on behalf of America’s free, local radio and television stations and broadcast networks before Congress, the Federal Communications Commission and the courts, for those that are from the outside, and don’t know much about the internal organizations of the USA.

UAV Photography has become more affordable.

The Digital Technology, Robotics industry and the AERO industry combine their knowledge to produce innovative products for the hobbyist and the small business market.
The DJI Phantom has many high tech features, it has its own GPS positioning system, attitude control, software flight controller, flight plans with own algorithm for understanding position and orientation and presetting governance to the flight plan.  The DJI company has a good reputation for designing quality flight controllers.

The extras needed for quality UAV Photography.

This DJI Phantom being reviewed has a GoPro Hero 3 digital camera attached to it, this is a multi purpose action camera designed for various action sports, it also has a vibration dampening for the specifically designed multi-axis camera gimbal, these items don’t come with the basic package, they need to be purchased as extra. Also the 4 rotor propeller guards to protect the propellers from stalling or damaging/getting damaged by accidental involuntarily bumping into an object.  There is a water proof housing available for the GoPro 3 camera, it is water proof down to 60 meters.  Not sure how water proof the Phantom Drone is if caught flying in a shower of rain.

What’s in the package:

  • Phantom Quadcopter.
  • Pre-balanced set of spare props.
  • Flight controller.
  • Battery charger.
  • One battery.
