Go to http://www.hobbyking.com and search for "HD Wing Camera 1280x720p 30fps 5MP CMOS".

They are cheap too. Only downfall is that they need pretty good light to operate. I filmed this with the same camera.

I hope so, because I have been told numerous times.

BLUE IS BETTER.

Can someone point me in the right direction to race VTA at WCRC? Chassis, tires, motor, etc.

Do I need a blinky ESC? I was thinking about getting a TC4 club racer kit, or would something else be better?

Thanks

For those of you using a driver figure, how do you mount them? To the body or to the chassis somehow?

actually seen it both way, with success

I have mine attached to the body - but then again, I'm using HPI mini trophy driver in mine and he mounts nicely to the inside of the body with some tape
