Well, my first attempt at putting a camera in a model rocket was a little less than successful. It was top heavy, and immediately began to spin and curve over to fly almost horizontally. The quality is due to the fact that the wireless video receiver outputted NTSC composite which was recorded in the field with a VCR. B-) Got some awesome 90's stuff going, right? :D If I ever wanted to improve on the idea, I'd use smaller batteries (probably several 3V button batteries) in stead of a huge 9V cell inside the 1 1/2 inch rocket body, and perhaps mount the camera inside the rocket hull and affix a small mirror to the outside. But the launch is kinda cool. Enjoy! :D
