Submission + - Incredible RC airplane video cam goggle-controlled

rcamans writes: "Google videos from an RC airplane mounted camera. The camera moves, controlled by the goggle-wearer's head movements. http://video.google.fr/videoplay?docid=90915457352 15129742&hl=fr I can' believe this has not already been posted! You have to see it to believe it! Everything is explained in a series of posted videos. Basically you get to fly anywhere, anytime, for cheap, and totally under your control. Why wouldn't everyone do this? He uses i-glasses goggles with a gyrocontrol gyro (from rc-tech.ch) mounted on them to sense head movements and move the camera on a mount on the airplane. An airwaves 612 RF TX on the airplane and airwaves 623 RF RX (from active-robots.com) does the transceiving. A cavalry pocket camcorder does the video taping."
