Having recently upgraded my aerial kit to provide 4K filming, my DJI set-up is up for sale. Bought new in Sept ‘14 already assembled from Helliguy, this comprises a DJI Phantom 2 quadcopter, equipped with the following:

Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal offering ultimate camera stability and no vibrations
Boscam Cloud Spirit 5.8G transmitter/receiver aerials
iOSD Mini - on-screen display of flight information including altitude, distance from home point and aircraft battery %
Boscam 7in TFT fitted with integral folding sunshade. This offers full colour live transmission of what the camera sees, so you can see what you are filming.
Fitted with Go Pro Hero 3+ silver edition
Three spare intelligent flight batteries (plus one with the UAV). All in excellent condition with 100% life remaining.
Two spare sets of props (one set unused and still sealed)
Prop guards (one pair painted hi-vis orange)
Hard travel case with pre-cut foam to suit outfit
Charging equipment for monitor and UAV batteries

Supplied with all original boxes, and a copy of original receipt is available to view. Equipment is mint, and has never been crashed.
Extremely stable and very easy to control. Has return-to-home function too.

Used on very few flights. As a CAA-approved drone operator, I also have maintenance logs and flight logs from every outing. UAV can be seen operated.

With the exception of my landing pad, everything UAV-related that you see in the photos will be included. Selling as a complete UAV kit, ready to fly, film and photograph, great start-up kit for someone looking to get going. Cost over £1,500 new, looking for £800. Located in Oxfordshire.

Oooh this is interesting.

Would you sell without the GoPro?

Any example footage you could link to?

Yes and yes, Faisal. Lets see what I can do..... here's a couple of promos I did recently for client SW Hire. Written, filmed and edited by yours truly. All footage captured using a bunch of Hero 3+. Edited together using iMovie. One is a short teaser, the other a run-through of the hire business.

Footage looks great Geoff, nice vids!

I think I need to have a proper think about this, and if I'll actually ever use it! Could end up sat in a cupboard, like a lot of my gadgets.

On hols at the moment- I think I need to do some research into camera drones and where you can and can't fly etc, then get back in touch if it's still for sale.

So I know though, how much without the GoPro, and are you ever in central London or Surrey (to avoid posting the kit)?

Thanks Faisal, its a lot of work but the end result is enjoyable (for me, and my clients).
I'll knock £100 off without the camera and I do travel around with my job, so Surrey not too much of a problem (but not into central London). Its not something I'd really want to post anyway.

This CAA document might help with do's and don'ts. Cheers, Geoff.

Geoff - I apologise for not getting back to you, I won't lie - I forgot! Just back from hol, and sorting out lots of paperwork for new job, and resigned the existing one.

I'm going to pass on this. It looks like a great bit of kit, with lots of extras, but realistically I just won't get enough use out of it.

Best of luck with the sale
