REFLECTOR: Camera

[Scott Derrick]

Matt,

I've looked at both wired and wireless.  Wireless is easier with the 
need of only a couple of power leads.  Easier to move later if you want, 
easier to add, easier to remove.. 

I've seen CCTVproducts website and they do have both wired & wireless. 
Prices arn't to bad.   The dedicated monitors are better in my opinion 
because you can program them to  cycle through teh cameras automatically 
or switch to a single cam, some offer a tiled view of 2 or 4 cams, 
etc..  Some also have  recorders built in  that  do a  ring buffer  
recording  so you always have the last  5/10/100 hours hours of flight 
on file.

Haven't decided yet...  I don't want the camera's screwing with my GPS 
or transponder signal, thats for sure!

    The most effectual engines for [pacifying a nation] are the public papers... [A despotic] government always [keeps] a kind of standing army of newswriters who, without any regard to truth or to what should be like truth, [invent] and put into the papers whatever might serve the ministers.
