Project Car-Cam
OK, three of us got our wireless mini-cams today, looks like I'm the first ready with pics. Mine is the RS4-3 Evo version, the TC3 and Savage versions are on the way.
Just a start, several issues still need addressing. Tested reception with radio on and servos worked fine, picture still came in clear. Center of gravity on the setup sucks but theres not a lot of room down low, HPI did a good job of packing it in down there. The camera is high, not going to be protected in a crash, I still need to work on that although the body will help. The 9-volt is just kind of floating between the radio tray and fuel tank, still need to cover it somehow and devise a tie-down. Any suggestions for this project would be helpful. We're kind of winging it here..

RE: Project Car-Cam
Thats actually a different bag. I want the thing sealed against nitro grime and dirt. So you already got video? I'm hoping I can get it done tomorrow. I'm still adjusting the mounting, trying to get it secure.
