A picture of his balls would probably be a better descriptive of him.....

500 for this Phantom Quadcopter. 400 for the GoPro camers, 200 for the gimbal ( stabilizes the camera. Carrying case 200 and few little extra's, it totals up to around $1500.00 but you can buy one just to fly around for 500. thanks for watching. If interested, go look at DJI online. They have all models and their prices just dropped some because the new $3,000 inspire just came out. Thanks for watching.

Didn't fly over the low crowds. That was all shot with a 20ft pole and GoPro camera. The parade grounds, I flew high enough so no one could try and knock it down with a football. If something did go wrong, it would come down at a fairly slow descent. Not like it would just stop flying and fall like a brick. You had a much better chance getting hit with a football upside your head, than the quadcopter. Thanks for watching though.

this particular dronw cost 500. Gimbal and camera was another 600. The views of the crowds, the team, Les Miles, and the cop, that was all shot with a 20ft pole. Didn't want to get it close to the people. You can tell because everytime I get close, you'll notice how the camera is "leaning in". That is me lowering the pole. also, I didn't fly over the 400ft ceiling limit set for these and the road ways, well they were closed, so that does not apply in this instance. I checked the laws a long time ago. Thanks for watching.

I agree RG, but the song works good with the video. I am not a fan of the song either. But, it had just came out, kinda catchy, and keeps people interested. Didn't expect to get 20,000+ views either. Thanks for watching it.

As long as laws aren't broken, you have nothing to worry about. You can not fly over 400 feet, ( which I didn't), You can not fly over a stadium ( which I didn't) I flew up and on the side of the stadium and end. And the stadium flights were done back in May. It is not illegal to fly and people underneath. No different than flying at a beach or farm. The video above the crowds when the team came down, that was all done with a 20ft pole.

Thanks for watching my video. Actually, all that flying was done with the naked eye. I have been flying for quite some time now, and they are very easy to fly. I just recently bought the goggles to be able to have FPV ( first person view) while flying. It is pretty damn cool. Thanks again for watching.

Unless you have a pilot's license, you are correct. It is a stupid law. Hobbists, such as myself, can fly with no license. Someone using it to make a profit, has to have a license. Geaux figure.

Most of the video was shot from 1100 am up until 1.5 hours before game time. Shots of the stadium were filmed back in May. Shots of the team walking down the hill and the policeman, crowd, etc, was shot with GoPro and 20ft pole. I did this to make it look like my drone, but not put the people close by at risk. ( or Les and the team) Thanks for watching.

The song choice, well I am not a big fan of this music either, but when throwing the video together, the song has slow and fast parts to the song. This made good for editing a video to. Thanks for watching

No thanks. I would rather keep flying.

Thanks for watching. Yes, the stadium video was done back in May of this year. FAA doesn't want you flying over stadiums anyway, (especially on a game day) so I didn't want to push my luck.

Thanks for the message. I will do one again for LSU tailgating next year as well. Just for the big games. People seem to like it and I am as safe as can be with it. Thanks for watching my video.

A little secret about my video. The part where you see Les Miles and the team walking down the hill, from that point on, up until the end, I shot with my GoPro on top of a 20 ft pole that I change light bulbs in my house. Flying a drone above people that low, people tend to try and hit it with footballs, so I did not want to put anyone at danger at that point. Now, flying it over the people at the parade ground, no different than someone humming a football and smacking you upside the head with it. It will not come crashing down, only a slow delcine.
