Can the camera of this copter tilt down to take pictures and video on better angle?. Thanks.

Yes. You set the camera tilt angle by hand before flying. I cut off and filed off the tilt limiters for more look up and look down angles. Better look down angle now, but I am abusing the video cable. It may break eventually. I put the plastic shell on backwards and tilt the camera up for better look forward.

Yes. Only up and down but not side to side. It is still difficult to pull off as you don't have a direct feed to the controller and you cannot adjust it mid flight.

The camera is (very tiny) and can pivot a few degrees up or down. Just don't expect much from the resolution as it's rather amateur!

You can adjust the angle of the camera a bit to take pictures and video more of the ground and less of the direction of the copter. It does not point straight down though.If you are looking for an entry level quad this is a good option. Keep in mind it is totally hands on flying. It will take a bit of time to learn to fly.

Yes you can adjust the camera but I should let you know, I wouldn't buy this product again. It is hard to control, the batteries don't last long and I believe there are much better quadcopters out there. Better to spend your hard earned cash on a quality product.

not likely to be at a angle you want, it will be very tippy on the small base. If you got a piece of say 4x4 plywood and drilled a hole in it and put some feet under it you could put a bolt into the base and it would be stable with a normal camera. Not sure you want to do that much work.

If you use it as a stand, it won't make a perfect 90 degree angle, and the weight of the camera will cause it to tip over. However, you can attach it to a pole or something to accommodate the side mount.

No, it doesn't angle that far down. Not a great tripod. Works fine for me - using it primarily to record musical practice sessions on my phone, but it is very lightweight and I'm not sure how good it would be for more intense use.

No it's not. It does tilt up and down but not 90'. You would need the Phantom 2 Gimbal for that.

Yes, you need a tripod if you want to keep the angle you are filming. but you can lay it down and it will still record

not sure about the camera however the copter is built wrong much to heavy for operation engine is extremely underpowered

I'm not sure if it will do what your asking but I can say that it doesn't tilt to 90 it's 2 or 3 degrees off. I solve the problem by gently pushing to 90 or even more but it will reset if you tilt straight down. It's just a silly oversight in engineering I think that the camera was meant to be mounted very high above the observation area.

Hi, Yeah. Just it is not so easy to adjust the angle of camera since it only can be changed in one direction.

That has been my experience also. The tripod does not adjust for viewing directly overhead.

No. It is only -50 to +50 deg The cam does have Tilt. specs are here http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/netwkcam/lineup/bl-c131/spec.html

Yes, you can. I have my camera mounted on ceiling and still pan/tilt without problems.

It has a flat base so yes. You just won't be able to tilt it too much if at all. While the head has a bit of weight to it, it's not enough to counteract the force exerted on it by the camera body.

No, the only way to do that is to cut and tape the camera housing... Then tape it in place. Or a external camera. It would not land or fly as easily but, again you could figure it out. Happy drone hunting!

the camera twists up and down. You can't tilt the small frame that holds the camera, you have to manually twist the camera down

No, it's a fixed point of view camera. It does not have pan and tilt like some others. The only way to adjust the viewing angle is to do it manually by hand.

Yes it can . There's a wheel behind the camera that'll let you adjust it up or down.
