Nokia N95 + RC plane = unlimited DIY aerial photography – Filed under: Cellphones, Transportation If you’ve found yourself tempted by other interesting DIY aerial photography rigs, but spent all your dough on the Nokia N95 instead, you may still be able to make a lifelong (or momentary) dream come true.
