PatMc Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Forgot to mention, you won't be able to take good pictures if the camera is pointing through the prop arc. Here's some stills I took using the PE setting with the camera pointing forward. I also took some video like this then some with the camera skewed to miss the prop arc.

Martin McIntosh Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I bought one a year ago but if I had known it was only 1.3 Mpixels I would not have bothered. Trying to erase multiple videos is well nigh impossible and loop record seems to be the only way to go. Tried it on the dashboard of my car for a while but the results were so poor I have not as yet bothered to put it in amodel. Very disappointed with the quality.

PatMc Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Like most people I found the internal battery totally inadequate & the picture quality is poor. I now use an external 4.8v AAA controled by a CurveRC interface gizmo. I scrapped the stand & soldered a lead to the contacts on the camera underside. For video I have it set on VR. Can't say I've had any problems erasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Chaddock Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 MartinNot sure why you find it difficult to delete videos.Surely when you connect the FlyCam to a PC it appears as a a "removable disk" and you can select, view, transfer or delete any of the files as you wish.There are many FlyCamOne videos on this site. Yes it is only 1.3 Mpixels but they show what possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin McIntosh Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Hi Simon, maybe I did not persevere enough with it and will try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
