I was looking to see if anyone had used a wireless video camera in a
payloader rocket.
If so,what rocket and engine did you use? I have a small payloading estes
model but i dont think
it is big enough.
Any info is appreciated.

BoosterVision has a video camera and transmitter that will easy fit into an
Estes rocket. You'll need a way to record the video output from the receiver on
the ground. I've been experimenting with their "high power" system which has
more range for higher flights but haven't had a chance yet to really put it to
the test.

Some folks use "pencams" which record 10 seconds or so of low rez "video". This
is a much simpler way to go, but it's not TV quality.

Probably not what you want, but it may be of some interest:

That's interesting too.
It's pretty cheap considering it comes from estes.
I might pick one up to toy with.
Thanks for the info!!
