Abstract
This paper deals with a flying observation which are consist of a helium gas balloon and a tilt rotor helicopter. The helium gas balloon can make flight for a long time. The tilt rotor helicopter is stable in the wind and increase buoyant force. The observation system with the helium gas balloon and the tilt rotor gets the best of both worlds. In general, helium gas is released from a balloon in every aerial photographing work. Moreover most aerial photographers with the balloon give up a flight in the wind of 5 m/s or greater. However proposed device does not need to release helium gas. Additionally, the flying observation device in the proposed can make a flight in the winds of 5 m/s or greater.
