Here is the F450 kit in stock in california for $34.99 right now. I totally agree with PP that this is the way to go. I have three of them...
I don't know what kind of kite it is, but here is a picture they posted of it. ...Tiger
They are shooting stills and not video so I don't think the gimbal is all that important. They have 5.8GHz video coming down so they can see...
