Here is the new GoPro camera, very small and looks ideal for use with UAVs.

Certainly looks like something you can easily put onto a UAV for an extra angle or additional images.  Be interesting to get anyone on the forums comments if they buy one.

It would also be nice if we could control the camera from the ground so we can just take one shot at a time when we want it. Instead of using interval shots and having to go through 100's of pics to find the right one.

yeah extra angle - but would be useless without a gimbal...

on the other hand - the price is ridiculous - 430USD/EUR... Its way too high... way way too high

Yes, I am leaning towards that also especially given it is just a 1080 resolution.  Nice and compact though.

This looks nice also.

Downside is there is a built in magnet, so I am guessing this may cause some problems to the Inspire compass etc.
Certainly better value for  money though.  Its a shame the 8MP still images are not greater.

You dont need to use the magnet. You can remove it and use velcro
