Great idea, I seem to always leave mine laying around the desk or car seat always worrying about scratches. Yup interested indeed.
Have you thought about licensing it through GoPro?

They have a cap for sale on their site.. I was looking on ebay and they don't have many cheap alternatives.

Fly your gopro with a quad copter for $675

Looks pretty interesting.

Yes it does. Not that I've been really researching these things, but from what I've seen, especially for that price, that machine is remarkably stable. I like the homing feature.

The shots from about 12' off the ground with passers-by gawking minded me of Cyclopean giant or UFO POV shots. Very cool.

Wish I had some money.

Yes, for the homing feature to be included I've priced some others at $1200 and up.

No company address?

Looks like a re-sale business with no real home base.

That is impressive. I destroyed a quad copter just a couple of days ago. It was remarkably easy. I'm not crying because it was cheap. But it's good to remember that if one tiny thing is out of adjustment when you launch you may be kissing your $650- goodbye. Still, the technology is coming together. Very cool.
