CHEAP VIDEO CAMERA
 

Ok.....
I was gonna save this for some Future Contest (its good to have an ACE up you sleeve:D) But I REALLY want everyone to be able to Make n Post Videos and some Folks dont have the $$$ to spend on an Expensive Video Camera just so they can post RC vids. This may be the answer.......

This is a Post from the LOSI LST thread. It is self explanatory. I dont think the links will work after I Copy n Paste, so I wll Post the LINK and you can go watch the Video and judge the Quality for yourselves. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=7197036

Took the truck out today and did some pretty pathetic jumps (Need to rescape the dirt ALOT!!)
But it's my first video of the LST2
The one in the video is completely stock except for the roll cage.
We did not break a single thing in this video.

I used a hacked Rite Aid / CVS disposable camcorder so the quality is not great (And youtube did not help the quality either!!),
but we have already attached the camera to the truck for a quick test and it looks promising,
the camcorder only cost $29.99
and if hacked, you can empty the video yourself, change the batteries (2x AA's), and shoot video again, and again.

So for only 30 bucks, I'm willing to strap it to the truck and do crazy stuff with it.
Right now we are modding the camera to fit in the truck better,
and have the camera power pulled right from the servo power (to reduce size and weight of the camera)

I will post more on that as it develops, anyways here's some screen shots from the video
And here's the youtube link to the video.

Heck, I might look into doing this myself. It's quality is better than my digital camera I use for video. A buddy of mine got a little camera like that from his mom. She bought it at Ace Hardware for like $50, and the good thing is it is not a one time use. It has a USB port that flips out of it so you can load the video on your computer. That might be a good route too. I know his takes about 20 minutes worth of video before it is full.
