My nephew dropped a MkII off a remote controlled helicopter at 250 ft altitude a couple of years ago. It didn't survive the dive. We recently built a 75 ft trailer mounted monopod for him to use to shoot golf courses and other such stuff. I will post a pic when I have more time. It works great.

Just do like Mike does and toss your camera

It's cheaper... unless you miss! |

Here is the website for the copter used in the OP's link. These are build-it-yourself 'copters, and they are high-end. Check out some of the videos on the site, the performance is just nuts. |

If I'm reading correctly, that's 2,100 Euros, and doesn't include the transmitter/receiver, AND you have to assemble it yourself?
They say this version is strong enough to use a 5DmkII, LOL. Would I dare...? Would you?
