Fantastisc!
My wishlist for christmas is ready:

1. DJI Phantom RTF Quadrocopter
2. GoPro Hero video camera.
3. Adobe Creative Cloud Video editing software

Hm, sounds like I´m looking for a new hobby...

Very fine, indeed!
The DJII Phantom is an awesome camera platform. Gotta get one.

Awesome video!

I've got to get back to Bodie one of these days. Maybe next year's Nevada trip.

Ray, if you go back, there's at least one building I'd like to get some accurate, straight on photos of so I can scratch build it.
