I will be doing some modeling work with this.

At $120 000 and needing a CASA air operators certificate and endorsement I think it counts as a serious bit of gear.

That's one serious RC copter. Will it be used in movie work?

The primary use for these is crop and weed spraying, it can spray 6 hectares per hour in ideal conditions, there is about 2500 of them in service in Japan for ag use.

Now that big plastic tank on the side make sense. I thought it was for fuel to fly the copter.

That's just a little thing... We designed this for looking for diamonds.

It can fly 4 hours, by itself, return and land itself.
