When I have the day off....




The camera is hooked to a RC car servo, so I can pan left and right using a remote control

 

Take it up to The Dragon in Aug. That would get some fun footage. But, how do you drive and pan at the same time?

Edit: You need to find a way to make it pan backwards too.

 

Damn nothings good enough

Ummm...passenger perhaps, or a quick reach to the controller...didn't give that part much thought The problem with panning backwards is that I would need a servo with major sweep, and those are $$$. Anyway this is just a prototype..I'll tinker with it more and more when I have nothing better to do...like today.

 

cool!

 

Todd and i will need a copy of whatever you shoot on Sunday

Oh and nice mod BTW is that what you spent your 5k on LOL

 

That is cool, How is the vibration? You can record some good street racing now!

 

It's fun to tinker

 

I haven't tried it yet...will make a test run in a bit and try to find a place to park it for you all to see.

 

Here is the first video...nothing special...just a test

No need for a long throw, just a nice set of gears to increase the range of travel...
