UAV Photography - drone camera

I think that the greatest design inspiration and most reverse engineering study done from natural designs has been from the flight of birds and their natural process to fly, their feather covered wing designs. After all they do it so effectively with grace, with such a small amounts of energy needed making use of the available air currents and updraft. Their feather wing designs are light, body fat is low, and their bones are hollow.

The magic of a bird's flight is truly wonderful and awe inspiring, their bird eye view of the world from above is similar to that of our UAV live stream video and UAV Photography. It is made feasible by the design of the bird's wings, feathers, the skeleton structure and their desire to fly. The flight process of a bird may be gliding, soaring, flapping its wings while being stationery, braking or taking off from the land or water. The most majestic large birds of the sky may be: Golden Eagles (wingspan two.5 meters), Grey Crowned Crane (two.5 meter wing span), California condor (two.8 meters), or the Wandering Albatross (three.6 meter wing span). It is truly awesome experience to encounter such an impressive bird in the wild, at comparatively close distance.

UAV photography captures a number of that freedom that birds experience, it is a dimensional freedom to move on land, on water and thorough the air. The new innovative know-how is more affordable for hobbyist to practice UAV photography; it is much more energy efficient that actual planes or actual size helicopters. What is most fascinating is that a live digital video camera can be attached to the UAV drone that can be controlled from the ground. The camera can be independently controlled and set to a GPS determined direction keeping the camera focused on target despite whether the drone is pitching (tilting), turning, ascending or descending, it creates a smoother stream for video viewing.

Drone with a camera.

Video camera mounted UAV is on the ground prepared for takeoff, the motors are jogging at low revs, the camera is switched on and the video view shows the concrete and the green grass of the cricket pitch. The revs are increased and the audio sound of the rotors and propellers working gets louder, suddenly the Drone takes off the ground and climbs up and up to about 100 feet (30 meters) directly above, as it climbed the video shows an operator of the drone standing near a concrete cricket pitch, and the person and the cricket pitch is getting smaller and smaller as the distance increases. The operator of the drone moves the flight controls to send the drone some 30 feet to the north, the GPS knows where that is and the drone obeys the command of the flight control. It is now located 30 feet north of the position that it launched from, the pilot then sets the flight controls so that the drone will fly in a 60 feet radius around and above the launch site, above the pilot. The camera has a fix on the pilot and it is recording that target as the drone flies around above the cricket field. Without clever know-how and GPS process application this would not be feasible, this is what makes the UAV Photography a lot simpler to make use of as well as a lot better in the video view quality.
