Hey, have you had a chance to use it yet? Looks like a pinhole instead of lens.

Haven't had the time to mess with it yet, my laptop started to act up and I haven't even gotten the chance to work on that. Hopefully once I get my Driver License renewed tomorrow.

I had one on my Blade 200qx. It was ok.

A sweet $80 camera to mount on a rig is the Möbius 1080p. They are the go to camera on mini- medium sized quadcopters. But would work fine on a rig or on a pole.

Finally getting around to mounting the camera while my laptop is off for repair (should be interesting to see what is causing the issues, actually haven't visited those kinds of sites on it ), I was going to stick it on the roof of my Tellutide, but decided to mount it inside and just drill a couple holes in the windshield (still using the factory painted shell) for the time being. I'll post more later..........just hopefully not months later

It's now installed, kinda half assed, just needs testing once I get my laptop back.

I went the simple route, two long button heads run through holes drilled just above the windshield, backed by a couple washers, then using some unused fuel line to make spacers and retainers and some Parma gel servo tape instead of anti-jelly mounts or bolting it solid to the body.





And here's how it looks otherwise.






Now so long as somebody paranoid doesn't freak out when I finally get it out on some rocks, I'll be good
