X10cam Rocket
|
Basically the camera is turned on and the nosecone inserted into the rocket. The rocket is placed on the pad. Near the pad is the X10 receiver. It runs on 12 volts. I use a motorcycle battery to fire the rockets so I use the same battery for the X10 cam receiver and for the igniters. The video out from the receiver goes into my Sony camcorder set to VCR mode which then records the flight. It is not very good but here is one of the first videos from the rocket cam on a cloudy day. It is very dark but it proves the theory that this does work.
