Steve Lodefink sent me this amazing video of a guy flying his quadcopter around his neighborhood using a goggle vision system. He even flies it through his(?) house. What fun!

At first I thought it said Googlevision. I was excited and afraid.
Mexoplexsays:
i think they did that on purpose. Archibald has it right.
Keithsays:
Same here! Very cool vid, next step is having it pick up the phone you left at home and fly it to you.
Archibald Tuttle (@SquittersTweet)says:
It’s called FPV (First Person View).
ameyringsays:
Cool! I would do the same thing using an RC car to explore woodchuck holes.
Shrikesays:
As Archibald above said, it’s called FPV and the gear is surprisingly cheap. If you skip the extremely expensive goggles and go with a cheap 7″ car TV or something similar you can get a 900MHz or 2.4GHz transmitter, receiver and a camera around $75

What a FAT house!
yachrissays:
If by FAT you mean AWESOME, I couldn’t agree more!
Incredibly cool. I frequently have the recurring “flying” dream and now to think I could just get something like this… well, just awesome that dreams do come true! Some how, some way I’m going to do this.
