Default Mini-Cam Questions...

Anybody have experience with a Mini-Cam on a Nitro Buggy. I want to put one on my MBX5R, but don't really want to spend a lot as it is just to try it. Does anyone know of a reasonably good one that is inexpensive? Also how do they record the video feed? Can you take a laptop with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to a track and record the video to your hard drive? Might be dumb questions, but I've never messed with these before. Thanks for any suggestions along with links for cameras.

yes that is how you record. All the camera does is transmits signal.

Go for it. Killer price. The key will be in mounting for impact.

Ok I purchased a couple of these: [link]http://www.raidentech.com/24ghzmiwicoc.html[/link]
Now I have questions, the answer of which will either show how dumb I am or that I purchased the wrong item. I would like to use them in an electric B4 Buggy and a Nitro MBX5R and transmit to my Dell laptop. The problem is that the receiver only has a Yellow & White RCA cable and my laptop does not have RCA jacks. It does, however, have the following:
USB 2.0
DVI-D Connector
Video (monitor) Connector
S-Video TV-Out Connector
Firewire 1394 Connector
Do you know if there is a way to adapt the receiver so it will connect to one of these jacks?
