There is nothing more annoying than flying above a stunning landscape, attempting to capture beautiful photography and video only to find that your video has the landing gear of the drone caught in it, as you can see in the video above by SJCam.

If this does not matter to you, check out our list of front mounted camera drones below.
If you are looking for a drone that will allow you to do 360 degree rotations, then take a look at our next type of drone for shooting 360 degree videos without capturing the drone, retractable landing gear drones.

These drones have landing legs that can be retracted at the tap of a button, allowing the camera, mounted on a 360-degree gimbal to capture unobstructed aerial photography and video. The following list of drones have retractable landing gear,
