Default RE: Any how-to's on adding servos and setup?

You'll find that moving it is of little value. I have this setup and it is not that useful.

You are best off making multiple similiar flights with the camera lens directed differently.... then splice the segments together for best effect.

Cameras need as little vibration from the engine as possible.

Even electric planes tend to vibrate the cameras too much, and the best pictures/videos are had when you shut down the engines.

I haven't tried it with an EDF, but I've tried about everything else. ( Electric Helis do surprisingly well... ).

If you go to YouTube you'll see plenty of videos short with the FlyCam one.

If you see videos with a "tearing" effect in the video, then this is caused by engine/motor/prop vibration.

I've used bigger cameras in planes with similiar results.
