Looking to make the leap into recording some on-board video. Have had loooonnnngg look around in many places, including rfconcepts and others.
No problem putting on a bullet camera or two, but stowing the Camcorder is problematic. There is simply no room on the race bike! So, the only two options, I can come up with are:
[list=1][*]Solid state video MPEG-4 recorder such as made by Archos or Mustek (pictured below).
[*]Wireless transmitter to a VCR in the pits.
[/list=1]
The advantage of the wireless kit is that it accomodates up to 4 cameras with timed switching between them. Plus, people could watch the on-board video live in the pits. This kit is VERY small.
The solid state recorders, although the Archos is hard drive based, is also small enough.
Either kit is fairly reasonably price around 100 or so quid, excluding the bullet cams.
Does anyone have any experience with any of the above? Or thoughs?
I don't really want to buy another camcorder.
