Verhagen X2-Electrical mini helicopters: whisper silent operation
Verhagen's very latest development: the electrically powered mini-helicopter. Not a toy, but a high tech fully operational flying camera. Available with carbon fibre pan & tilt unit. Suitable for normal digital video, still photography, HD-video and 16 and 35 mm film cameras.

Important feature of this flying camera unit is its relatively silent operation. The whirr of the blades is stronger than the engine noise. This makes the Verhagen X2-Electric the best choice for discreet camera work. The machine is very light and instantly ready for use. Take it out of the car and your camera is at a height of 50 metres in 2 minutes.
