My first A.P. rig (Homemade)
I bought this small 2 MP camera, and decided to give Aireal Photography a whirl. I'll post my first in-flight photos tomorrow !!
Give me cardboard and epoxy and I can build... ... um... uhhhh......

I am interested in doing something like that with my slo-v. I dont really understand how to do this stuff though. What do you do to move the servo?

I plug it into ch. 4 since it wasn't being used. When I want to take a photo, i move the throttle stick to the right, the servo arm moves and triggers the camera.
The silver button on top of the camera is the shutter switch. The white servo arm presses it to take the picture.

My slo-v came RTF, with a 3 ch. radio. Would i need a 4 ch. radio? Would i have a place to plug it in, if it is only a 3 ch. plane?
