Ever since Jed from Camper Van Culture posted his amazing Syncro video with all the fancy aerial footage I have been fascinated with Photography Drones and have been looking to pick one up.  I finally decided that I would start small and work my way up.  After much research and deliberating between the Phantom and the Blade I settled on the Blade.  I chose the blade because for someone with no RC experience whatsoever it seemed to be the best "starter" drone on the market.  I am sure I will continue to second guess my decision but so far I have been very happy with the Blade.  I have only had it out twice and this video is from my second flight.  I am recording blind or without the First Person View.  This means I am practically guessing at where my camera is pointing because I am approximately 200-300 feet from the drone at any given time.  It was a bit windy and difficult to keep the drone steady which is evident in the video.  I have the video running at 40% actual speed and it hasn't been ran through any stabilizing software.
