Right - that's how it worked on the gumstick camera I got, but that's the
only one.  I suspect all the ones with the date stamp have some means
(doesn't makes sense otherwise) the GearCam DVR has a small utility that
will do it.

Evidently they don't all work exactly the same. Some people have gotten
it to work by putting the file on the memory card, turning the camera
on, and recording. It should change the date and the file will disappear
from the card.

I just got one of the of those key chain cameras for 15 bucks on eBay. It
doesn't have any memory. You have to get a micro SD card for it. I got a 4 GB
SDHC card for ten bucks. That's a $25.00 investment. So far this thing has blown
me away. Great picture and sound. It's so light, without the chain, that I think
I can incorporate it in a boost glider. Maybe one of the large Edmond's kits.
I'll post a You Tube video sometime comparing it to the multipod. It's suppose
to be a Christmas gift. But I check it out briefly to make sure it worked. Now
if anyone get one of these things from eBay, it will take about 3 to 4 weeks
before you get it. It comes from Hong Kong. The instruction manual that comes
with it is very vague. If it was more vague it would be a blank piece of paper.
The camera operates very easy. It saves video into avi format so you don't have
to have any special software to see it. But the camera does super impose a date
on the bottom of the
  screen. The manual does not state how to change the date. Anyway I'm sure after
more people buy these things, we'll see some things appear to help enhance the
performance of this device.

I bought an Oracle cheap, but my laptop runs Vista. From what I've read the
software isn't Vista compatible. Is this true ? My laptop's at work so I can't
try to install it until Monday, but I was wondering if you could set it to run
in Windows in XP compatiblity mode and get it to work. Any ideas or help
appreciated. If it's true it just won't work, I guess I'll have to buy a used XP
laptop.

It fits in a BT-50. Mine was mounted in a clear plastic tube with an
engine block at the bottom and a nose cone on top. The tube is taped to
the side of the rocket. The tube didn't need to be clear but I thought
I'd be able to see the LED through the tube. It turns out that it's much
easier to turn it on outside the rocket and just slide it into the tube.
At the end of the video you can see me pushing the camera out with a
dowel. I'm sure I can come up with a better mount. I just slapped that
together so I could get a couple of flights in before the end of the
flying season.

Haven't worked with the X-10 system in a number of years - all the new solid
state camera systems pretty much have taken over for me.


I'm sure you've seen the tech notes I posted on my site.


I don't think better power is going to improve the X-10 performance - the
receiving antenna is probably the most important thing to improve, getting
one with a higher DB will do a lot to improve your range - but even with
that you'll get roll drop outs.

You do need to add your own memory card - so far my tests seem to indicate
it'll record for a full half hour 720X480 @ 30fps.

Thought it would be interesting to composite four different views from the
XPRS flight together.

.and it was - the capsule footage (that I plan to post separately shortly)
shows a unique view of the cockpit - the camera moves around because it's
basically sitting in Joe's lap, held in place by his legs.  A strap on his
suit shows the negative Gs from the point of motor burn out - what surprises
me it how much longer  it lasts even after capsule separation @ 13 seconds.



A bulk of the footage is the decent to the playa - can you guess what lands
first?  ;-)



Interesting too, after the capsule lands, there must have been quite the
gust of wind as it gets dragged for a short distance.

Hi:
      I finally got around to editing the video from my flight last
weekend and posted it to YouTube.  Enjoy!

Here's a video of the GearCam taped (with masking tape!) to an Estes Liquidator.

For some reason I can hear the audio on the YouTube page but not on Quicktime on
my own computer!

[Please forgive the intrusion, this will be a one time announcement]

Last month I was looking for an HPR group here. The only one I found had been
taken over by spammers after being abandoned by the owner. I contacted yahoo
groups management but they have refused to help.

So I've created a new group, and would like to let folks know about it:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HighPowerRocketry/

and the appropriate email addresses are

Post message: HighPowerRocketry@yahoogroups.com
Subscribe: HighPowerRocketry-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
Unsubscribe: HighPowerRocketry-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com
List owner: HighPowerRocketry-owner@yahoogroups.com

It's been set up as a members only group, so hopefully it won't get taken over
by spammers like the last one :-) When you join, please include a message so I
can tell your an HPR person and not a spammer.

I'd like to find a few people to be moderators, so there is no single point of
failure like the old group had. If you've got some experience as a group
moderator, and are someone I know and trust, please offer to assist. While I
have dabbled in HPR over the years, I'm certainly no expert there.

Dough you must have missed what makes these camera's so impressive

THEY ARE 720P !!!

in fact NOW you can get a 1080P cam for $150 !! (well its 1440x1080 so not FULL
FULL 1080P ie 1920x1080) but I think 720p is MORE than sufficient for now :-)

Check out my Friday Videos's on Naram live (second friday) I shot a 720p video
from Keith Vinyard's Radian and its mighty impressive for a $99 camera!
