  • We made some heli shots for a undisclosed production, using a ultra-compact gimbal system for the alexa mini, based on our MotionLock line of gimbal systems. ( pyro.de/products/motionlock/ )
    This is some onboard footage we shot handheld - so please excuse this documentary-style camera work.
    Questions regarding the production and/or location can't be answered...

    This guy flew beautifully in control the entire time the flipping off the camera bjt was silly but it wasn’t that bad. This guy flew very well and looked very competent flying in these conditions it takes a master to be able to fly through these conditions safely and it is very dangerous. No margin for error

    All I can think about at around 2:20 is my instructor rolling off the throttle going “engine failure, engine failure, engine failure”. Where are you going to go? There is zero room for error there. Cool to watch but Jesus I would never fly there myself or be in the back seat... spooky.

The way how he flies his chopper, it's a wonder how it did'nt experience 'mast-bumping' from tilting the swash-mechanism at such abruption, high pitch-angles & high G-loads. I' mean Robinsons are no "Bo105, Apache, Ka-52, Euro-Tiger or Italian Mangustas" to begin with.
