I've recently been thinking about exactly this quite a bit. I was wondering if theres a market out there for aerial photography at much lower costs than having actual aircraft do fly-bys. Surveying, real estate photography, whatever. I'm not normally an entrepreneurial person, but flying RC planes and getting paid would be rad, and I think there could be a demand if its impressively cheaper than the real plane version.

Ola posted:Oh I think there's definitely a market for that. Aerial videos as well. Think of a hotel or a theme park doing an advert. Getting helicopter video is easily four digits per hour. And you can get some quite amazing shots, going from up close or even inside a room all the way out to full landscape. Hell, once the video quality is good enough, airborne RC will be a major component of the film industry. The moment the technology is viable, someone will notice how stupidly effective the whole concept could be. Just imagine all those huge cranes and zipline fixtures totally made obsolete. The technology is becoming realistic in this application pretty much for the first time right now, in terms of film-quality HD in flyable sizes. I hadn't thought of that until just now...it makes me kind of giddy to think of how that would actually work, and how the industry would recognize the concept's potential.
