2.4GHz Wireless Camera Review
Posted: Fri Jan 30, 2009 9:01 pm
A 9oz, 2.4GHz, Wireless Camera, for under $50!
A got a new toy for Christmas. It's something we've all dreamed about at one time or another. A lightweight, TINY, Wireless Camera!
I absolutely love mine. It's nice and tiny, the baseplate has two small holes on it for screws. It has a small amount of pivot on it. The receiver is about 4" long and 2 1/2" to 3" wide, half and inch tall with a standard pivoting 2.4GHz antenna. It has white and yellow RCA jacks and an 8volt D/C plug, that accepts both one of the two included wall tumors or the 9v harness, which I haven't tested with the receiver yet. Range is very good. I haven't tested it out thoroughly, but a garbled transmission 30' through a crowded two-story lake house on Christmas ain't bad at all. One other thing; I was messing around with my A-10, and I felt the control rod was doing something funny. So I hooked this sucker up and took off the wings, shines a light on the fuselage and stuck it in. I found it was just a bendy rod. Could see it great, too.
Prices differ from website to website, and also information about the thing. The video on X-Heli was taken from YouTube, wasn't even from this camera. A little underhanded, I might say.
