Has anyone ever tried to videotape their train running through their lay-out? I was cleaning out my desk (at wife's request, she declared it a fire trap along time ago) and I came across a miniture wireless color video camera and transmitter kit I bought a few years back. I was thinking about mounting the camera, which is about 1/2 of an inch square inside one of my locos, and running it around the lay-out taping as it goes. The unit is ideal since it is wireless, runs off a battery and a bonus is it is a color camera. Problem is, it is kind of bulky when the 9 volt battery is attached, and it may make the loco unbalanced, especcially on curves. I am just curious, if anyone ever tried this before, and what the result was before I go through ripping a loco apart and setting it up. Here is a picture of my camera set: <br />[img]http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b4ce11b3127cce990c3603797800000000108CYsmbloxb4[/img] <br />[img]http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b4ce11b3127cce990c3600f84b00000000108CYsmbloxb4[/img]
