Title: wireless cameras form ebay us
Post by: ankur on March 10, 2010, 08:42:47 PM
hi guys,
i have found a cheap video camera that is wireless and can be used for short range fpv[upto 300 feet]
http://cgi.ebay.com/Wireless-Spy-Nanny-Mini-Micro-Camera-FULL-SYSTEM_W0QQitemZ390120901957QQcategoryZ48632QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m8QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DMW%26its%3DC%26itu%3DUCC%26otn%3D20%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8397283044883048594#ht_6001wt_774

and use it with this and u can get live video feed into ur laptop

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=180434905178#ht_7636wt_774

so just confirming from senior members can it be used for fpv systems??

another one but reqiures a lot of modding

this one seems to be good and has a decent range[300-1000 ft]

i have an idea just buy a spy pen camera DVR from rediff.com for Rs 1000 for 8gb and just open the pen it has a really small camera inside put it on your airplane and fly after that you get a really great video.........

well i also had that idea but

1)the pens are heavy
2)they don't last long
3)they don't have good image/video quality
and as per the topic
4)they are not wireless and cannot be used for fpv

the one which i quoted as the cheapest will cost u around 1200 rs. with free shipping
so it is of more use[it also provides a sharp vga resolution]

even i had this idea but sadly these are not good enough
just read through that link. It seems the video from these chinese models is not good enough for planes as the range is very less and the quality is not stable. But if want to use for cars then good! :thumbsup:

and one more thing if u still want to buy , most of these are 24$ and shipping would be another 10$ = around 1500rs . I have personally seen the same chinese wireless camera systems for 1500rs in the local electronics market! bargain a lot and u can get it for less than 1200rs.

well what better can u get at that rate???????
it might be suitable with indoor planes i guess
anyways u get 1 factor-if u crash ur plane and donno where it has landed then even it has low range then also if it comes under range it can give u some idea where is it\
anyways i don't think its a professional fpv system as used by mr.sai but it is also not a waste of money and time

and the shipping is free worldwide

agreed its not professional but the fact is its 1)too big for indoor planes,
2)you dont really need the camera to tell you where the plane is if the range is low!
3) i am not saying its a waste time/money but for this money your are better of buying something like motor/servo that u can use on your plane.
ps: i wasted way too much money on camera stuff even before i got to fly my first plane , just my few cents worth of advice.its upto you to decide if you want the camera!
