Ask questions and share your bebop drone footage here

Logo looks a bit too stuffed with propellers. You should remove some and left maybe like 4 of them.

Thanks, I'm current working on a few other mockups.

I took it out again today to a golf course but the video came out dull and nasty, mostly due to the Florida cloudiness. Hopefully I'll be able to see the sun tomorrow and get to reshoot.

I just received a Bebop in the mail and thought it'd be cool to record the footage from the first flight to show you guys.

Good luck finding one, I'd check BestBuy first. Also, highly consider getting the bundle with the SkyController it adds a whole 'nother level!

Pretty good quality. The image is far more stable than I expected from these things, even when moving. Does the camera have some zoom function included? And the logo does look too complicated.

Why ? Is it not available on stores online ?

It's actually a software based stabilizer, it crops the 14MP fisheye image. The software doesn't currently allow you to zoom, but that can be done with post processing.
Thanks for the input on the logo!

There's a very limited stock unfortunately.

Thats a pretty cool thing to have and the quality of the video is awesome how loud is it?

I'd say about 90db or so, it's definitely not a stealth "drone."

New footage incoming soon!

wow thats really loud! I would like to see the capture of a train or something to see how it deals with fast movement.

New footage uploaded, be sure to turn up the volume and watch in 1080p! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wvp5CsOTyA8

Looks unreal like straight from a video game. Florida is beautiful
I heard thsese parrots like to lose control and the software is buggy. If I were you I'd switch to a drone with a dedicated controller like a Phantom 2.

Thanks!
Yeah, I hope the software gets better with time, I'm looking forward to the flight planning feature coming up.

Comments on this composition are appreciated so I can improve future videos.

[devthedev]

It's filmed with the same angle and speed. I'd add some dynamic movement like a sweeping flight or a small evolution, maybe a 360 shot. There's not much that can be improved in drone vids besides the actual positioning of the camera.

Thank you for your input, I still have a lot to work on and will take your comments into consideration next time I go flying.

Good thread. I will post the footage from our drone money drop charity event for the homeless once it has taken place. Please see my thread for more information and consider making a donation for the event.
