We haven’t really delved into flight here at RC Soup. A few of us have dabbled. But this looks to be a capable drone. Checkout the release from Hobbico below.

Introducing the finest R/C quad system for emerging aerial photographers!

Out of the box, the 370 mm (14.6”) diameter ORA quadcopter and its onboard 1080p HD camera are ready for exciting aerial filmmaking. The complete package — with quadcopter, 10-channel transceiver, camera, gimbal, batteries and charger — comes at a price that’s accessible to almost anyone. Yet the ORA also has features not found in even the best-known competing systems, including an exceptionally reliable 5.8GHz video signal!

First Person View (FPV)

On its large, 17.8 cm (7”) FPV touchscreen, the ORA’s Journey transceiver displays what the onboard Reflec camera sees in real time. Pilots can frame scenes for filming by remotely controlling the camera gimbal. One-, two-, and three-axis gimbal options are available, each designed also to accept GoPro® cameras.

GPS Flight Control

GPS programming options enable the ORA to virtually fly itself. It can hold steady at a chosen altitude and position, or execute complex flight patterns set with numerous separate Waypoints (coordinates can be saved and the identical path flown again any number of times). To focus filming on a specific area, the pilot needs only enter the desired coordinate using Focus Point. The ORA then flies completely around that point at the preferred altitude.

Touchscreen Programming

The transceiver has a built-in Android™ device for programming ORA functions through the touchscreen. Between flights, pilots can use its Wi-Fi capability to browse the Web, download maps, check Facebook and read email. A separate OLED telemetry screen displays valuable flight data such as GPS coordinates, altitude, and battery power status.

Ready-to-Fly FPV Quadcopter with HD Camera

With the ORA, hobbyists can experience high-tech quad flight and enjoy filming sports action, family trips, real estate and much more from thrilling new perspectives.

Additional features include:

• Generous Range — 500 meters (3/10 mile) for both
  flight and video signals.
• Long Flight Time — 30 minutes per battery charge.
• Return to Home — A single simple command can bring the ORA back to its pilot.
• Actual Direction — This option prevents control reversal confusion during manual flight.
• Failsafe Systems — To watch for dangers like low battery power and bring the ORA home for safe landing automatically.
