I have no experience with 'free flight' other than folding paper airplanes....
Cameras weight next to nothing and can record automatically to some microSDcard...
would be nice to get an aerial view?

Yes,

Nice, but being an electronics freak so to speak I want power and control.

But free flight models seem a great way to learn about aerodynamics.
Not much of a competition person here, just experimenting. make my own rules
set my own targets.

Nice, for those days electronics, used the 555 myself in industry...

These days I just program a Microchip PIC controller in asm, set values via serial link before takeoff,
like for the air text:
 http://panteltje.com/panteltje/quadcopter/hsign.html 

HUD display with on screen GPS and power:
 http://panteltje.com/panteltje/quadcopter/hud.html

Auto pilot controlling drone and dropping load:
 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI_0mjwlvNw

I do not use a solenoid, but an electric motor with a screw that releases some nuts, this gives more power with heavy loads,
at low peak current.

   also note the micro-sdcard for the video...

Precise hands free flight to a few cm.
Better get the GPS stuff right, the first experiments needed fast user interaction to prevent it
flying through windows etc...
The 'tronics' is basically very simple.
Programming in asm on PIC micros is fun :-) It (the hardware) does what you tell it to do, 

China has demonstrated large groups of drones flying art like formations using something like this tech:
