So you have seen those videos of
andygates cycling to work with a camera strapped to his head.

This guy goes one better. He has taken a radio controlled plane and attached a camera to it.
Woopy-do I hear you cry but, the guy is also transmitting the view from the camera back to his goggles in real time so he can look where he is going from a pilots eye view.
Okay, modertately sophisticated but, he has also attached the camera to some servos that control its movement so he can look around some while flying.
The fact that the servos are then controlled by a head mounted gyroscope that means he need only glance left  to take a view to port etc. is the thing that makes it awesome.

Anyone fancy a homebuild project?
