Title: How does onboard airplane camera work? Post by: ashutoshn on January 21, 2010, 11:16:06 AM Hi,
I have seen videos of quite a few planes (blu-baby also) carrying a camera onboard. They appear to either record or transmit information to a receiver. So, 1) How do they work? 2) Does a camera consume a channel from the receiver? 3) How is it connected to the battery source? 4) Any other interesting info.

There are various method of recording the subject with a plane. those method are : Stand alone camera: like pen, USB, or mini camera which has a inbuilt battery and memory to store the video. there are various Chinese models available in local market at a price range of 2000 to 8000 with a storage capacity of 2-8gb, depends on camera quality. Radio operated camera : : such a shark make (FPV) used by Sai, these camera are costly with more features and require a separate battery to power. the images can be recorded remotely as the images are transmitted to a ground recording equipments connected to the receiver. as far as channel is concern it is consumed only when connected to a pan and tilt system and having a free channel on your tx (separate setup). commonly available wireless setup works on 2.4 ghz technology for a longer range. the one i am talking about is also having a viewing goggle to view the exact subject live while flying.
