Hi Phil, certainly getting some great on water vids . You've got them down to a fine art now,- when's the production model coming out๐ Very few modelers are able to get pics/vids of their models, as they are too busy driving them, (or don't have the cameras) so with your efforts they have something to access now. I wasn't able to record many of my models till the mini 'keychain' 720p cams came out about 18yrs ago, (from Hobby King) and we could mount them on planes. Early FPV came out around that time, but was expensive and only had a short range, (about 3-400ft) Now with all the cheap FPV stuff, Gopros etc, it's a whole new thing.
Here's a vid of what we used to have to put up with, - Keychain cam mounted on the nose of a Precedent HiFly powered glider. Dragged it out for a fly a few years ago, camera still worked after 16yrs, but the tiny LiPo batteries had died in the other 5, so have modified them with external Nokia phone batteries. They were handy cameras, as you could fit them inside models, and they weighed nothing. Used a micro SD card, and vids were downloadable from the cameras. About 20 mins of recording time (more with the Nokia batteries.) JB Warning, take seasickness pills before watching, (no fancy image stabilization.)๐ฎ ![]() ▲
