DIY aerial 3D photography 8)

Interesting video on how they mapped for Google Earth a super detailed close-up of the Matterhorn in CH with eBee drones.

I'm going to seriously consider getting one of these because It would be great to preview a walk by drone before walking it. Also the home movies and trip logs would be fantastic! But last year they were @ $10K so I hope the price comes down a bit or competitor generics offer some price relief...

I hope you have deep pockets - these things seldom get cheaper (for quality units). You also need deep pockets for the photo processing/rectification. They also have a very limited range.

This is what you really need...http://www.boeing.com/boeing/defense-sp ... index.page?
