GoPro Experiment

My mate Mike Walker has had a GoPro for a while now and we have been threatening to fly with it strapped to the UAV for ages.   We managed to get the GoPro attached to the camera mount, but that was about it. So the pics below are all screen grabs from the 1080p 25 [...]

Gracepoint Methodist Church Lonehill – Finished

This is the final set of pics that i will take for Gracepoint Methodist Church just outside of Lonehill in the North of Johannesburg. The Grass has come up and there is very little building that still needs to be done. I had great fun taking these images, as there [...]

Haggards Hilldrop – Newcastle B&B Guestlodge

The Boys and I went down to Newcastle for the annual Newcastle golf day, and this is the B&B that we stayed in.  The morning of the golf the weather was perfect for a little flying so out came the heli and up went the camera.  Willie whipped out his Canon 550D and shot a [...]

Gracepoint Methodist Church – Lonehill

Well this is probably the last in the Lonehill Building Site Series as the church is now almost complete.  The day could not have been better for flying…not a breathe of wind and beautiful clear skies!  The pics were taken a week ahead of the mayhem that is the 2010 Soccer World Cup starting in [...]

St Andrews Bridge Widening

We went and flew for Sefanutti Stocks, to take some pics of the last concrete pour on the St Andrews Bridge Widening project in Johannesburg.  Thankfully the weather played game, and the clouds cleared, helping us to get some awesome shots.

SuperSport Corporate

Iron Bird Media was asked to film some aerials for a in-house corporate video that SuperSport was putting together.  Was great fun, and we ended up with some great footage.

Lonehill Building Site 3

We once again popped out to the Lonehill Methodist Chuch Building Site for the 3rd installment and snapped some awesome aerial images for them.  The building is coming along nicely and hopefully we will be taking shots of the finished church. Hope you enjoy!

Jozi X

Jozi X is a Johannesburg based adventure park, that offers a bundle of extreme activities.  We did a couple of fly overs and snapped some shots to see what is there and what is to come?

Lonehill Building Site

We did some test flying in windy conditions with the DX6 shooting on the Lumix LX3. The main plan was to shoot stills but we figured while we were there we might as well try some video. We limited the drone to a max height of 70m, but still managed to get some really awesome [...]

Franki Africa

The guys at Franki Africa let us into their Wynberg yard in JHB to fly around and shoot some stills of their Piling rigs.  Was a great morning for utilizing the position hold functionality of the DX6.
