Incredible GoPro Drone Footage of erupting volcano
Incredible footage of an erupting volcano in Iceland. Phantom 2 quadcopters are used to capture viewpoints of an exploding magma caldera too dangerous to be approached by manned aircraft.

Check out this incredible footage which takes viewers on a journey close to the active lava eruptions of the Bardarbunga volcanic system in remote Iceland. Footage was captured with DJI Phantom 2 quadcopters using Lightbridge for wireless, high-definition remote video.

This is an amazing example of what can be achieved using affordable drone technology in combination with a GoPro Hero3+ camera. The camera was destroyed why filming due to the intense heat – however the card in the camera survived to show these amazing images.
Watch below for behind the scenes of how these incredible images were captured. If you haven’t been bitten by the drone bug yet this is a taste of what can achieved with a minimum of equipment and an affordable drone system.
