Yes Paul has a eBee senseFly - https://www.sensefly.com/drones/ebee.html Because it's a "winged" craft then with the right permissions it is possible to fly over populated areas. So can get aerial footage for relatively low cost, but is a more expensive investment than some of the very low cost drones that seem to be more targeted towards filming. It's also ideal for imagery as it will fly a preset route capturing the required stills to cover the area needed, and then lands.` Cheers Chris > > On 18 September 2017 12:14:01 BST, Marc Gemis <marc.ge...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Oleksiy Muzalyev seems to be pretty knowledgable on drones.
