2012 Feral Hog Hunting Highlights with the Dehogaflier UAV

http://youtu.be/q9UKFTbJ470

from a buddy of mine, and a member of this site...


Here are some of the highlights from the 2012 pig hunting season. This year we had a thermal weapon sight as well as the thermal camera on the UAV. The thermal weapon sight made a huge difference in the ability to detect the hogs from long distances and was a joy to shoot with as well. The majority of the pigs taken where with a .308 equipped with an ATN ThOR 640 2.5X scope.

The UAV is a Skywalker 168cm with RangeVideo OSD and a FLIR TAU 320 camera. I use 2.4Ghz with circular polarized antenna for video.

That is really cool. What is the cost of the UAV with all of its video and thermal components?

I think the thermal cams are about $5000 ? if I am not mistaken

the UAV are quite a range depending on things ? $1000-$8000 without cameras depending on options
I know my next big project is to get into the UAV photography thing :)
