Looking at Go pro HD on youtube this camera is going a similar quality as a point a shoot type camera. I was going to strap onto my twin rotor helicopter but is was too windy but I thought next visit to Cr I can tape to my R/C Mini.
Yes it looks like it, although it say HD maybe that means Half definition? , I think we will use it for recording the recce's.
Make sure you check the settings. You may need to change it to 720p at probably 30 fps. That is what most of these low cost cameras consider HD to be.
I hear from the co-workers in CR they is a better Chinese go pro , I'm going to find out more and let you know. My version will be used for the recce's
The original GoPro is most likely made in China. Let us know when you find the higher res China cam. Enjoy the warm weather Chris. I'm tired of this shirt we have here. brr:snowblower::shovel:
Sorry you have to suffer along with us. Temps climbing here & it's raining hard. Can the spring flooding be far behind?

I've seen the footage and it looks good. The cool thing is your smart phone can use the WIFI to see what the camera see's. So if you had the camera on the roof of the car, you could see and activate the camera inside the car with your phone. Not bad for $106 one issue is the battery lasts 1.5 hours so the guys bought extra batteries and a USB charger.
I'm definitely going to look into this. Just off the top of your head, any idea what extra batteries go for or how fast they recharge?
