Our main "Heli-Cam" is a Predator gas helicopter from a company called Century Helicopters. It has a two stroke 23cc engine that runs on gasoline and two-stroke oil mixture. It has upgrade main and tail rotors that are carbon fiber for extra lifting power and the camera mount was custom built from scratch. We use this machine for still photos and video shoots.

Our second "Heli- Cam" is a machine from Japan Radio company called a Venture. This machine has a .32 size engine that runs on model glow fuel, and like it's big brother above, it has upgrade tail and main rotors of carbon fiber. Again, the camera mount that this machine carries was custom built by us. This machine is used for still shots only.
For extremely high altitude shots we use a "Plane-cam". This plane is called a NexStar manufactured by the Hobbico company. It runs on a .42 size glow engine and has a custom camera mount attached to the side of it. The plane cam can reach extremely high altitudes.

Each of our aircraft are equiped with a video down link transmitter which feeds to a receiving station mounted on a tripod. We can see what the cameras see!
This is our BD-5J turbine jet!
It has a video system on board that downlinks to a television to demonstrate in-flight video at speeds reaching 200kpr!
*Note: We only fly this plane at specialy events that have the correct facilities to safely operate the aircraft and this is for demonstrations only.*
We use Futaba radio gear exclusively for flying our aircraft and operating our remote camera gear.
