  • Trex 500 Onboard Keycam Footage

    Went out yesterday at lunch with the 500 as guy at work had a keychain cam, bit of blutack & away we go

    Skills need improvement but getting there slowly, started flying properly in December when I got the MSR but the greatest leap has come from getting the mcpx in March :-)

      You need to sort that tail wag or your 500 will fall to bits

        Lol, I know, I'm addressing it this weekend, have tried moving the ball link in a hole but no luck, will try strapping the beastx down next & checking the tail servo settings

                I was surprised also loz, think I may order one myself, I only started flying properly at Christmas, so think with practice & dedication it shouldnt be too long ;-)

                      Lol, go for it loz ;-)

                      I have a few sd-mini cards lying around anyway so can make use of them.

                      Hopefully I'll get the tail wag eliminated this weekend and that can only improve the video's

                        Arrived few days ago, all charged up, just waiting fro decent weather this weekend hopefully then off for a fly with camera attached.

                        Impressed with the quality for such a small item

                          If you've not already found it, visit 808 Car Keys Micro Camera, Spy Video Recorder, Review his website is full of useful info on 808 spycams. Helped me sort out the tricky date/time setting.

                            Cheers Balders, that's great as was trying to figure out sorting the date/time on it.

                              it is a bit of a black art Depending on your exact model (which you tell by the colour/position of the time/date stamp on your footage!!) of camera, you'll perform the date/time reset in subtley different ways
