Your comments please

Nice, some music would be good too instead of hearing the sound of motors...

Here's one of mine doing some "chasing", circling.

That was shot on my old Phantom 1 though....my Phantom 2 FPV (just got them today) is not up yet plus the latest 1.6 firmware for the Zenmuse made the tilts jittery. Have to wait for DJI to fix that. We should fly together some day.

Where is the place that you are playing at? Seems like a good place to fly too

That is the Tampines CD field. Lots of people go there to fly all kinds of aerial stuffs, planes helicopters and multi copters. It's a very big field and there's also a pond nearby where they play RC boats.

Saw the news on tv today the sale of such quadcopters maybe controlled and monitored by the authorities.

When they have no understanding of the technology and the real issues... existing laws are already adequate. The privacy concern is dumb because (1) the "drone" is very loud (2) UWA lenses are hardly suitable for close-ups and (3) it's near impossible to navigate in urban/crowded places and users who do so would be in breach of existing law anyway.

And DJI has released their 3 axis H3-3D for the Gopro 3/3+ as well.

This will be the best setup for multi rotors carrying a gopro size camera. Any bigger cameras and you'll be looking at a Hexa or Octo.
