If you film track-side on railways you have to pass PTS (Personal Track Safety) safety training every year. I asked one of the training officers about radio Quadcopters and he doubted if I would be allowed to do it. Needless to say if you did it with out asking you would be banned from that railway very quickly! Also word would pass very quickly and no doubt the railways would stop stocking my DVDs in their shops!

I know quite a few professional photographers are starting to use them, also they used one in a recent "Top Gear" BBC film.

The slightly larger Quadcopters will carry a pro SLR with gimballed mount and full use of most controls on the camera.
