Default Onboard camera?

What are people using? I want one that is small with the best videorecording possible. Does transmitter/receiver solutions exist? Have an advances video editing program and want to take it up a level. Onboard racing vids are cool.

Any advice is welcome. Dont mind the price tag too much

Haven't got one, but I'm currently saving for a GoPro HD Hero.

Not sure it'll fit in 1/10th buggies, but it seems ideal for 1/8th and short course trucks. An older, standard definition version of the GoPro can be found under the traxxas brand too.

here's some I've done using one of them

dashboard mounted in the road car on a winters day in the UK


Camera is mounted upside down in a TC shell at an indoor event.
Because the light sensor is facing the black carbon the picture suffers


this ones outdoors on a sunny day in the UK by desawa82

I have a standard GoPro...never been used other than to check its working, still have the wrist strap and its still in its clear acrylic case. Also have a couple of wireless versions where a small unit (size of an OXO cube?) goes in the car and you connect the receiver to a video camera or whatever....

Would be interested in a trade for a bog standard Mardave.

Like I said...I have a couple of these things if anyone else is looking for some on-board video?

Just found the camera we used at Caldicot...

Drift Innovation X170 - CLICKY!

Really rugged, easily coped with a 'sensible' run!
