Cool. How fast will it go to say keep up with the boats. Can you get a sensor that stays in the boat so the camera will follow at a predetermined distance so you don't have to play with controls while driving?

So it will fly 55 kph on GPS mode where the compass and GPS will hover at one hight and you can map out a course using way points and just leave it and i will fly it all you have to do is adjust for video purpose.

On manual flight it will do flips and shit but nothing is helping you fly.. i'm not sure i'm good enough to even fly it on Manual mode from what i have seen on youtube there are gnarly crashes.. BUT it will go over 80KPH on Manual.. so pressures on to get good.. lol

the Drone has a "home" location you set each flight so that once it hits 15% battery it goes home. if the controller looses signal it will go "home" and also you have a fail safe switch on the Controller to go "home".

the other Function i like is the "Course Lock" you fly in the direction you want to fly and switch to course lock. it will continue to fly in that direction at that pitch at that altitude. and you can point the camera what ever why you like it will continue on the path.

lots of features i still haven't figured out.

Super cool. I'm going to get one for sure this summer. Would be cool to scope out the homestead. Nice that it can fly on auto mode. Good purchase James!

Does it use an onboard camera, or use a gopro?

it uses a gopro 4. i have been having good luck shooting in 2.7K at 60 FPS very smooth. have had a good amount of time flying it now and i cant wait to take it out the the umbrella islands !
