The PlaneCam is currently in the final stages of construction after many months of development - photographs to follow shortly.
We are introducing the PlaneCam platform to our equipment list because it offers unique filming characteristics that cannot be achieved easily by other means.
The lightweight model plane is modified to accept a full HD camera on a 2-axis gyro-stabilised camera mount. The plane can cover distances of 500m+ and so is ideal for filming projects that require long shots. It can be combined with the use of our HeliCam drone and/or ground footage to add variety to a production.
