That's right folks, this week is a double header! Right after recording the cluster podcast, we'll be doing a LIVE podcast recording and discussing onboard video.

The plan is to go live at 7:30PM Pacific tomorrow evening.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
What onboard cameras do you use or have you used? What cameras are you interested in trying? Give us all the info you've got on onboard camera selection and implementation!

I’m still fairly new, but we flew the Estes universal Astrocam on our LOC IVs for our L1. I would suggest putting some tape on it if using the mount that comes with it.for high power. We almost lost the camera at ejection.

Personally my favorite is the 4K RunCam split for size and ease of use. However I have also built a few that house a GoPro session 5 which is pretty nice for its stability.

Will you please cover the issues of video cameras on the rocket going past Mach???

Noah Lenihan

I've had good results with the gopro hero 4 session.

I guess heat maybe? If ur camera is through or near the body wall? Only other thought I had is vibration, which is always a potential issue (sdcards etc).

I’ve always wanted a camera where the lens is separate from the camera body, attached presumably with a ribbon etc. or, a camera that’s easily modded for that setup. Put the body in the body tube and shroud the lens assembly on the side. One of the Runcam’s has that setup but I think it’s POV only, no onboard storage?

Confirming that this live stream is 7:30pm pacific… thus 9:30pm central???
