How cool is this?

Nice. I assume that's probably a GoPro camera? GoPro cameras are
selling like the proverbial hot cakes in large part because of all the
First Person Video interest. As a result, there's a company called
Ambarella (ticker AMBA) whose stock is on a bit of a moon launch. They
make the video compression chips for GoPro. Check out the action for
the last 3 weeks. It brings back memories of the dot com era.

Don't know what kind of camera, but it must be pretty small.

The camera in my quad is about 1/2 the size of a thumb drive.

Is it a GoPro or something else?

Something else. Storage is a micro SD card and it is powered by the 3.7V
lithium rotor motor's battery, which is about the same size as the camera.


How well does it work? Good resolution? Have you put anything on YT yet?
