My first cam flight, FT Old Fogey with 808 #16

by icedomin8r | August 11, 2013 | (0) Posted in Just Fun

Received my 808 #16 V2 camera today and figured I would throw it on a plane I can fly at the parking lot near my home. That honor went to the Old Fogey! She isnt too fond of wind, but the gusts werent too horrible today. This was done line of sight as my FPV gear is sitting on my H-Quad.

Overall I am thrilled with the 808 #16 V2 with the D lens. I updated to the latest firmware, adjusted the lens for a sharper picture than how it was shipped to me, and charged it up. For $50 you really cant beat this in terms of value, size and video quality.

I plan on putting mounts for this camera on the rest of my Flite Test fleet and also my 2M sailplane.

I am still learing how to fly my H-Quad, and dont want to risk my gopro just yet, so this little keychain cam will make due in the interim.

Less than stellar videos in terms of content, but you can see Angel Stadium from a far, a large semi-famous church, the 5, 57, and 22 freeway interchange, and you can just barely make out Disneyland if you look hard enough.
