Hello there!..
I've been into aerial photography for a few years now and built quite a few drones up to now, So thought i may as well do a blog on my new project.
Below is the very first drone i built, which took just over 4 months to build completely custom, with a parachute recovery system, which was a nightmare to get working but safety first and its like one of my children :)

My next project, I've just started and this will allow me to legally fly closer to object which aren't under my control and night flying also. It's got triple redundancy...I mean it will still fly if it has up to 2 out of 8 motor failures, which is highly unlikely event.

When this is finished it'll fly a Panasonic GH4 with any tele-photo lens for around 20 mins and also DJI X5 camera, I calculate around 35-40 mins which is a long time in the air.
