Pretty unrelated idea

Hey, i was just going through a leaflet from Maplin (uk electronics store - maplin.co.uk) and i found they do a tiny colour wireless video camera.

Now, i figure this is a neat toy. Maybe stick it in a model aircraft, rocket, car or something. And then it occurred to me that you could stick it in a remote control blimp and fly it over crowds to get shots to be displayed...

total = £130ish

Apparenly in computer fairs, etc it is only £50 or so.

[rabidhamster]

quite possibly. Its the first time i've seen them what i'd consider 'cheap' though. I will have to have a look out - for £50 i may get one for amusement

attached to one of those tiny RC cars, and a mini TV it'd be really cool, if geeky.

oh well. you've done it now.
One's on its way - cost £43 from ebay (inc postage).

unfortunately i foolishly left the mini remote control cars at home
