quadrotor with laser scanner?

edit

First of all, thank you for the reply. I've checked all of them. It is not clear whether they are willing to sell the platforms. It seems they designed the quadrotors with no information about the cost nor their availability to be sold out.

Some of quadrotors are not expensive, so with the link that I've posted in my post some laser scanners 2D are not expensive. So it might be not impossible if there is a whole package. I just wonder.

That´s kind of the point: The less costly way is buying the different parts and building/assembling the complete platform yourself. There are a lot of quadrotor platforms out there, but no "cheap" integrated system featuring quadrotor, LIDAR and onboard computer.

When I say cheap, I mean in a range 5000 $ which is still expensive.

Asctec is the only company I know of that sells a complete package with or prepared for mounting a LIDAR. Come to think of it, it might be better to ask on a UAV related site, as this really is not about ROS.

Hey there, the uav in the second video is indeed a Mikrokopter (Quadro XL). It's around 1000 euros (+remote). Mounting e.g. a pandaboard (~180 eur) and a beginner level hokuyo (~1000 eur) is quiet easy, I didn't have access to a 3d printer at the time and managed with some wood, a saw and a drill.

However, you should seriously (re)consider using a 2d lidar on an uav. Especially if you go for a "cheap" 5m laser. It has some major drawbacks imho (e.g. range and rectilinearity assumption), and visual slam nowadays works pretty well, while cameras are usually cheaper than time of flight sensors.

But visual SLAM needs a depth camera(Kinect etc), then outdoor application is not possible ;-)
