A 2.4 GHz high resolution CPcam Sony CCD video camera (500x582) is mounted on my QRO v3.0. The video is sent to my HID (Helmet Integrated Display) equiped with High Resolution LCD glasses fixed on the helmet (see the HID test). The QRO-UAV is now ready to do UAV missions, so, I have decided to conduct a serie of missions in real situations with my QRO-UAV.

The 1st test mission of the QRO-UAV : A close inspection of a big aqueduct.

Below, some photos extracted from the real time video sent to my HID...

Tests results : The QRO v3.0 is easily manoeuvrable and very stable in spite of the turbulences induced near the bridge. The QRO-UAV can be positionned precisely and when the GPS board will be installed, it will be able to lock on a geographic position. I have done 3 flights on the aqueduct successfully on March 11th, 2007.
