The folks at 3D Robotics are taking a page from Apples marketing playbook with an early teaser video for their newest drone. Most hobby, and even professional, quadcopter operators tend to gravitate to the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ or the Yuneec Q500 Typhoon. The 3D Robotics quadcopters have never really garnered…
I am sure that the folks at GoPro aren’t super happy about the SJ4000 Waterproof Action Camera ($66). The camera, mounts, and case look awfully familiar if you know what I mean. I am not going to go into that here. The SJ400 sports camera has some pretty good specs,…
The Dropcam Pro is a pretty good camera system for keeping tabs on your home or business. It is easy to setup and use despite having a larger than necessary base and mounting system. Read on for the Dropcam Pro review here. I got ahold of a Pop Mount Kit for…
Choosing the right home/business monitoring camera is a daunting task. For most folks, a streaming WiFi camera with video/audio cloud storage is the quickest way to get up and running. Also, maintenance on this type of camera system is minimal when compared to other DVR systems. The Oco Streaming Camera…
The Aeryon HDZoom30 is basically a 3-axis gimbal stabilized camera system that can be bolted on to a Aeryon SkyRanger copter. The amazing part about the Aeryon HDZoom30 is the insane zoom (30x optical and 60x digital) and camera quality (20MP). This camera combined with a buttery smooth gimbal allows tricks like…

The folks at SenseFly (remember the SenseFly eBee?) are getting closer to releasing their latest quadcopter drone, the eXom. The main difference between the SenseFly eXom and say the DJI Inspire 1 or the Yuneec Q500 is the addition of more sensors that are aware of the surroundings. The eXom…
There are so many home monitoring camera options available today, each with their own plusses and minuses. My hope is that the DropCam Pro ($199) could be my goto camera system for the home and small office. Read on for the DropCam Pro review to see if it hits the mark.
At first glance this quadcopter with built-in machine gun looks pretty real, and a bit scary. But after watching the video I am pretty sure it is more CGI than reality. Still cool though. Video of the machine gun quadcopter after the break.
The space that was pretty much dominated by DJI is starting to get crowded. More FPV (first person view) multi-rotor helicopters are hitting the market. I think this is a good thing, at least for consumers. Maybe now we will start to see prices getting more affordable later this year.…
