Matt,
I don't have that camera but I bought the Drift 170HD and thus have some  
insight into the small cameras.
I like the idea (mentioned on ACS page) that the prop is filtered.  If  it 
works, that is nice to have.  Make sure that parts on the equipment can  be 
replaced.  The camera I bought does not have replaceable parts.  If  you 
drop it and crack the lens, you have to buy another camera!  Ask me how  I know.
I believe the cables on the ACS camera will be clumsy.  The Drift is  all 
internal to a small camera body and thus I am able to tape it to a gear  
strut or wing tiedown and video things on the bottom of the aircraft.  With  the

cable and separate recording device that would not be possible.
It does appear to be a rugged design.

Some  probably have already seen this, but I noticed that ACS has it on 
sale  right
now for $399 plus an extra 10% off with the check out code  "PILOT12".

I'd be interested to hear any impressions of the system and  the actual 
1080p video
quality.
