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?

Here's the USA page: //www.quadrocopter.us/index.php

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.
