RE: Sig Kadet Senior
I think the Senior is a bit more versatile as a platform than the LT-40. Bigger fuse, more room inside. What kind of camera do you plan to use? I have a Senior kit with the same thing in mind. I plan to stretch the wings another bay or so each side, and add struts, not necessarily for strength, but to make a hardpoint on each wing. I plan to use a small CCD camera mounted out at mid-span, counterweighted (if necessary) on the other wing, with the camera transmitter and batteries in the fuse. This will get the camera lens far out of the way of possible exhaust blowing on the lens. If you have the camera pointed forward under the fuse, you also have the nose wheel to contend with, unless you convert it to a tail dragger. Putting the camera behind the clear canopy of most of these planes will distort the image somewhat, as the canopies aren't without warps, bubbles, streaks, etc.
It was suggested to me by a club member to mount the CCD in a pod, mounted facing slightly down, with a linkage to a servo that could swing the pod side to side using a transmitter control. You could really expand your view that way.
