I recall seeing a tail mounted bullet camera and some semi-wide angle video that was fantastic. I want to record in flight videos in a similar way. I thought about mounting a HD bullet camera in the fiberglass section of the vertical stabilizer but I cannot find any 12V HD DVR's that are an acceptable size and weight. Most of them are low resolution Security DVR's. A second fly in the ointment is I want to pull the audio in from the audio panel vs. just an open air mic. There seem to be some combination choices like these: Really Small but not HD and no audio input. Or this one: 1080P but no external audio feed. This is an all in one unit so no remote mounting as you have to have access to turn on/off The nice part about this is it's movable Same with this unit: 1080P but no external audio feed. This is an all in one unit so no remote mounting as you have to have access to turn on/off The nice part about this is it's movable Now I made a BIG mistake by mounting two DVD players in my RV-10 when portable ones would have been a much better choice due to advances in technology but I figured mounting an HD camera is not that big a deal as the most important part is the capture device (DVR) but as I can't find any (except the Sony for $3,000) maybe the helmet style is best. I believe this is another example of something I want/need now but the market has not quite caught up with my requirements. Any guidance would be appreciated.
