I will bet that if you make a rigid mount, it will work out better with the video. Some .063 aluminum should work well and keep it light.

Yeah U should have seen the first video that was just mounted on a 5mm control rod holy earth shake.That video was a shishkabob stick that was just taped to the bent front end of the skid and was pretty solid.Yeah i,ll do that this next time Tony and zip tie it to both skid mounts on one side.That wide angel jelly lens on the camera makes all the difference to see the whole heli.

Tony hear we go again, went to charge what is my fourth keychain cam unplugged it and now it wont take video.Same thing all of them have done ,why do they do this ? to me

 

[Tony]

Not sure, never had that happen to me. maybe it's the crapple computers doing it hahaha

 

[zapster]

I plugged it into the Dell Dude. F it i,m saving up for a GoPro.

 

[Tony]

I have heard that if you let them charge too long you will trash the battery. Not sure how long you had it on there, but it's possible. If you want to send it down here, I will look at it and see about updating the firmware. Send the others if you still have them and I will do them as well. Just a suggestion.

 

[zapster]

i,ll do that PM me your address. i would still use them i have two left you could keep one if you want.

 

[Tony]

Will do.
