Drone Copter visits Asuncion


Rene Bruce & his 4 perros showed up here with his cool photography contraption...a drone helicopter with a Go Pro attached to it for taking pictures from the air.

It seems lots of people on the peninsula have run into Rene...he was last seen at Coco's Corners! Sounds like he didnt find any models for taking photos on the SUP's in Mulege although he showed me some amazing pictures of Bahia Conception and the baja mil race. I look forward to seeing the pics of our area.

Here he is flying his invention..he landed it on his car hood. Anyone else chat with him lately?

Have a friend in colorado that has one , he uses it to scout 4wd trails to see if they are passable, not much fun to have to back off a mountain for 2 on 3 mile ,cause you can't turn around or continue .

I love snooping on my neighbors with mine. JK.

My buddy was down kite surfing one day and a guy with one of these asked if he could take some video of him.

What a cool experience. My friend got a 10 minute video of himself off the coast of Dana Point, hauling butt, riding waves, all from above.

Would love to see some footage Shari.

R/C


Not to hijack (much) but the small R/C models are perfect for Christmas gifts and for flying indoors during those cold and wet winter Baja days!!
