Nano Drone Contest Videos and Results

The contest has ended and there were  4 submissions.  I was hoping for more but I got some good ones.  The winning video is from Ethan at HI-Flight.  This video demonstrates some serious RC skill, he shoots his Hubsan X4 through a 45 degree slanted opening about 3 inches thick among other cool stunts.   He also had the best production quality and put together a really fun video.  I really liked the FPV Quadcopter powered Hubsan balloon that Ian from DroneMaui.com submitted.  That was a really creative hack for the Hubsan and I think others will be interested in building something similar.  The "Drone Impossible" video from Jared Apperson shows the onboard camera perspective from the camera equipped version of the Hubsan X4  as he flies through an enclosed slide and around his son inside the slide.  Nice flying skills through one of the best nano drone arenas - the playground!  The final video features a dual view / picture in picture as Joel Liebeskind flies out of his balcony window over what looks to be a difficult to recover if crashed area.  It reminds me of the time I flew it out of a condo window on the 6th floor and crash landed on a neighbors deck who was not around.  I had to put my tail between my legs and go get the front desk to let me in to get it back!

I really appreciate you guys testing out your skills and taking the time to make a video showing off your skills.  Ethan wins the contest, but the 3 runner ups are all going to get brand new Hubsan X4s shipped to them for entering the contest!  Please shoot me your mailing address at the contact page!
