Must need a narrow lens. Otherwise those front rotors will be constantly in the shot (only going by the photo above). I have not read anything else, yet.

Off topic...I just glanced through your "Adventures of Raven" Blog. I ridden some of those similar routes on my HD Ultra Limited, which is 1 reason why I'm looking forward to the portability fo the Mavic. P4 is way too large to pack.

The landing gear looks a bit more robust on this version!

Is that a 2-axis gimbal?

Quite possibly the ugliest thing I've ever seen!
