HIGH QUALITY
The unique patented SkyShot Helikite is a superbly stable aerial platform giving sharp photos even on windy days. Takes superb high or low altitude shots.
SIMPLE
1. Position digital camera on pan and tilt mount or use a Brooxes AutoKAP rig.2. Set camera shutter to super-continuous mode or switch on the GentLED Auto.3. Un-reel the SkyShot Helikite line and watch it fly the camera high into the sky whilst automatically taking pictures.
The Skyshot lifts 0.6 lbs (250 gr) in zero wind. That's good enough for an AutoKAP rig with a Pentax Optio. Thanks to its unique design the pull increase as the windspeed goes up. In a 15 mph (Bft 4) wind the pull is some 3 lbs (1.5 kg).
Operates in winds up to 30mph. Professional model deploys straight out of the box.
