Video/camera systems

Post by Rris »

Looks like this is currently the lightest high quality HD camera around: http://www.goprocamera.com/products/hd- ... camera.php

This would be our HD recording of the flight onboard. We'd also have a small camera on the 2.4ghz link (i'm guessing we can't get av out on the hero) which will give us a live feed to get excited over.

You can get AV out of the Hero rather easily. People were using them for FPV, so GoPro implemented a feature in firmware to output AV. No idea how it works, though.

GoPro got back to me about the suitability of the camera for high alt with this link: http://vimeo.com/12331583
